I Believed

I believed when you told me,
I was the reason for your smile.
I believed when you showed me all your scars,
And I wished I could heal them with all my love. 
I laughed when you bought me a fly, 
Saying I fill your life with colors just like this butterfly. 
We danced in the rain, 
We sang songs in the moon's light. 
But it ended like it never was. 
You took away my smile, 
You caged me in that beautiful cage of the butterfly. 
You left after the rain stopped,
and never called, when I was dying in high temperatures the whole night. 
You slept after the sun was up, 
But I left for the test which I was never prepared for because we sang the songs 
last night which you loved the most all your life. 
I believed it was us,
But the truth took away my blind trust.
