Remember This

Why crawl;
 when you can slither,
   Your motive and actions,
 you might reconsider.

   You portray you
 know what you're doing,
   I know the kind of potion;
 you are brewing.

   You only considered you,
 and your needs,
   You deserted me
 and my heart bleeds.

   You treat me as
 if I'm someone you never knew,
    It is difficult to imagine
 a life without you.

   I have no idea,
 who you really are,
   You cut me deep,
 it will never scar.

   Do I remind you
 of someone you use to know?
   It was not that
 very long ago.

   You do not return my calls,
 you act like I don't exist,
   You can't understand,
 why I'm so pissed.

   When I said forever,
 I meant forever,
   You discarded me
 with the flick of a lever.

   Love is not something
 you just quit,
   This is why 
 I'm not over it.

   You have no idea
 what is wrong with me,
   You did me a favor,
 you set me free.

   I see it in a very
 different way,
   I view it as deceit
 and foul play,
  Remember this;
 Every dog has its day…

The key word here is "slither"! Well done!
