sacrifice

“I Sacrificed me” 
For your Love but Yet and Still You don’t see me
Going over and beyond What the eyes can really see
“I Sacrificed me”
And yet and still you used me up
Then turn around and confessed your love
Only to use me again Against my heart you sin
But yet again
“I sacrificed me” 
Turning a blind eye to the abuse 
Holding on to the old that was you
Believing that one day you will do the thing you promised me 
But yet you lie 
While I lay here and cry asking myself why
I believe in your lies 
Just to hold on to broken promises Disloyalty and dis Honest 
Lord set my heart free.
Please help me to stop sacrificing me.

"Why do you believe in his lies?" I do not think you do. I think you believe in the goodness you saw in him before, and the goodness you need to see again. Well done. Welcome to Poetry Soup, Colleen.
