You Never Loved Me

Oftentimes I do confess
I would attest that you were the best
It appears that this was a delusion ,
Our love was just an illusion.

Your feelings seemed so intense
You didn't credit me with much common sense
How could I be so dense!

You brought me roses whenever we would meet,
I thought you were wonderful, kind and sweet
But you pulled the rug from under my feet.

I was your puppet and you my master,
I did not forsee impending disaster,
Your suit of armour didn't have achink
What was I to think?

I thought your terms of endearment were true,
I didn't have a clue
Until you left me for someone new.
