Fake Love, Real Pain

By: Meggie Elizabeth Jacobi

When a tear runs down my check
It cools the pain and makes me weak

I thought of the love we had
And all it does is makes me mad

About how you left me and never came back
But I know where we messed up, where we lack

You said, "This will hurt me
more than it will hurt you!"
And now I know that is not true

It hurts me more, this I know
Because I found out
that the love you had for me was all a show

Why didn't you care?
I thought you loved me, but it just wasn't there

You found the shape of my heart
How dare you tear it apart?

A joke, you never thought it would go this far
But your love hit me hard,
just like a truck or a car

I hope you read this poem someday
And figure out the love you had that you threw away

You will never have me to love again
I thought this was the beginning,
but now it's the end

The pain is gone, this is true
You played with love,
and now love will play with you
