THE LOVE SLAVE

You've changed so fast

I now look at you I see

My past

You said your not like the rest

Promised a ring,nothing but the best

And I fell for you ,a hard

Stupid fall

Bruised my ego ,hurt myself

I've done every test

That could distinguish you

From all the rest

Your eyes lie to me ..my heart is grieved

Because the one I fell for

Is the worst of them all.

You make it hurt so much

I'm in denial

My love can't do that ,its not him speaking

I write this hiding away my tears ..I took a risk and I faced my fears

I'm stupid enough to put my hand in fire

You have the nerve to call me lier

You were supposed to heal me

But you stand tall and say I'm wrong

Loving has enslaved me to you but not anymore !

When you met me I was almost giving up

Almost growing cold ...but you've made it worse

I'm now a wall .

heartbreak
