Things Ended

You are not what I expected I 
had a revelation it manifested. 
Your loyalty was tested and 
although you passed i wasn't all 
the way invested .I  Can't erase 
your face out my mind .. I can't 
seem to shake you out my 
system . You've put me in a 
position in where I need to 
make a decision whether or not 
I should listen to what I could 
be missing . No need for 
dismissing I'm already involved 
keeping my guard up was 
heavier than I thought. You 
were my wrecking ball you 
enjoyed watching my guard 
finally fall. The big insecurities I 
once had are now small . I 
picked up every single one of 
your calls and enjoyed my trips 
to the mall .you were 
everything I needed you were 
my all. Tattooed your name to 
my chest so you knew it was 
real we were commited it was a 
sealed deal .  when I needed 
you , you were there did 
everything for me I enjoyed 
this love affair . and when 
things ended my guard went 
back up I couldn't believe It fell 
. you leaving was something I 
couldn't tell

Ah, the strange things that "love" makes us do. It's tough. Having a false sense of security is the last thing we all want to feel...I understand the circumstances here. I hope for better days for you. It will get better. Cheers to you for this very expressive writing.

Hi Jennifer, profound write this! The theme and the expressions have been brought out strongly. In matters of the heart, guarding your heart becomes paramount and when that trust is broken it is difficult to fathom what went wrong. Very well penned!
