You Still Left Me

I introduced you to all the significant ones in my life, ....you still left me. I hosted you with a lot of joy, ....you still left me. I cut links with all the girls and focused on us, ....you still left me. I worked so hard and got everything you wanted ....you still left me. I compromised my principles to make you happy, ....you still left me. I restricted my interactions and remained faithful to us, ....you still left me. I bound myself in your ring, ....you still left me. I smiled at every mockery, ....you still left me. I faced every embarrassment with courage, ....you still left me. I remained strong in bed, ....you still left me. I stooped very low to hold your hand, ....you still left me. I spent everything I did not have, ....you still left me. I fasted and prayed for us, ....you still left me. I sent friends and family to talk to you, ....you still left me. Only these lessons and more that I learned, ....have never left me.
