I thought you would never leave me,
I thought you would never lie,
I wish I could just die.
How could you play me this way?
Why would you not tell me instead?
You should had set me free and just let me be!
How could you live with yourself?
How could you look at her face and tell her that you love her?
When you know you should have just told her.
Why drag me along, when you know you were wrong?
You told me you loved me, you told me that you cared.
I believed you because I was scared.
Afraid to lose my lover, not knowing it was all over.
Where was she all this time, when I was sure you were mine?
You promised her eternity, but you could not give me an alternative.
Why would you mark me this way?
You have left a stain that shames my last name.
Because my love for you was so strong
I thought I could never hate you, but I guess I was wrong.
All I can do now is sit and analyze
And hope one day you would realize.
That I did not deserve this and you should have told me.
Today I move on with a heart made of stone.
All I can say is I wish I had known.
I Wish I Had Known
Hi, your poem is wonderful and so touching. I'm a victim of love betrayal. My boyfriend betrayed me a time I never expected him to. I never expected I could one day find him with another...
Shame
