Claire Van Rooy Poet Free verse

What Once Was My Love

I think about you 
Any day, any time
Any way, any how
But that doesnt matter now

Coz you wont look at me
You don't even bother talking to me
And Im the one to start the conversation 
And when I dont its like im nothing

Im the one always trying
And im the one who ends up crying
And I know you're blind to me
But I wish you could see 

Oh how I love you
It was always you 
The one who messes me up
The one I cant get enough

You once loved me too
But that's the past and theres nothing left to do
Coz you pretend that you lost your memory 
But i know you just wanted to get rid of me

But like a fool 
I believed you
Im your jester
And youre my puppet master

You control me
Dont you see
I changed coz of you
For you

I dont know what to do
Im left here stranded
Still following you
Like a dog with his master 

You throw the punches 
And i take them and run back to you 
You blow me off
But im still running after you

Like an idiot i fell in love with you
Like a fool i forgave you 
But you're still messing with me
And only now do i see

But I cant keep running after you
And im done 
Coz i cant keep going
Some things were only meant for the moment

And just like everything else in this world
We died
Coz i stopped running
When you didn't even try
