You'Re Right

I told you i loved you,
I sold you a lie.
I needed and bleeded you
into "my guy."

I matched us and hatched us
a life we could lead,
I wrote us a story you'd
beg just to read.

I hated and rated
your touch from the start.
Inside always plotting
and roting your heart.

I told you i'm sorry,
Sung songs of regret.
I cried when i left you,
the scene had been set.

I lived next beside you,
Shared bodies and bed.
All the while meaning to mess 
with your head.

I promised you laughter,
but meant many tears.
I took all your secrets,
recreated your fears.

I told you I loved you,
I meant every word.
What you think of me-
 this crap is absurd.

Good wording and rhyming. Check the last line in your third verse: the word "roting" should be correctly spelled "rotting". This is a good poetic description of a love-hate relationship.
