Ranting Rhyme

What comes after
Nonstop tales
Ugly truth for that matter
Neverending stories that never get stale

It sucks
Unbearable to my ears
Perhaps it is luck
That I am not, to you anymore dear

Here comes regret
Being played in your game
Not knowing your shocking traits 
Long before I let my heart beat your name

I have but just one wish
You were that wonderful person I thought I knew
Not the one they said rubbish
Like the sand it strews

Love is a one way street....it is an action that's on repeat....it simply does and does, never seeking return on any day....and if the receiver doesn't do the same, you must Love yourself enough to walk away.....;)
