A plea

By: Erika Michelle Cruz

Tell me why
you turned around and said good-bye.
Why did you play with my feelings
and left my heart, sick, without any healing?
Why did you walk away
after you told me that you would stay?
Why would you believe that i could break your heart,
when you knew that i loved you from the start?
how could you leave with no return
leaving this pain that always burns?
This wound is deep and always bleeds
these wounds are deeper than the seven seas.
Why has life played this nasty trick on me?
So i can open my eyes
and finally realize
that we we weren't meant to be.
But.. i love you
yes, i really do.
Now i'm on my knees
with a single plea...
Baby, please
come back to me!
