Suffering

I wanted Passion.
Not heartache.
I wanted a love,
That would last.
Instead I got 
A love that
Tore me apart.
You didn’t love 
Me at all.
Because if you
Did, you wouldn’t 
Have walked away.

You Left Me.

I was left 
Here suffering while
You walked away.
I was left 
With this grief,
A love that
Now had to
Be grieved because 
It was dead.

Dead, like my  Hope for love.
