Romeo and Juliet?

Day of Love

You treated me so wrong, and I thought I deserved it

Why didn’t I stop you? Why didn’t I stop it?

I deceived myself into thinking you loved me the way I loved you

But did I even know what love was?

I'll say you treated me worse than anyone who has ever been so close to me

I thought I could teach you to love me

But you said, you already knew how to love me

I had so much faith in this relationship and all we could be

I gave you all I could, and I thought we were the exception to the rule

But you showed me that you couldn't be my Romeo

All your words meant nothing

You left me replaying your texts, calls, and letters while trying to believe I could make you love me again

Did you ever even love me?

I now love myself more so the clock must turn, and I am not your Juliet

The day for you to prove yourself worthy of my love is over...
