UnLoved
by Stephanie Ann Taylor
First you said you loved me,
then you had to lie.
You only had to say "she",
and I realized my love was blind.
As your words filled in the blanks,
there was a sudden pain in my chest.
I felt in me my heart had sank,
but I suppose it was for the best.
I don't think the pain was because of good-bye,
but mostly because you said forever.
You said our love would someday touch the sky,
and no one could split us apart, not ever.
Now I see I wasn't the one,
the one for you is far away.
She lies someplace far beyond the sun,
but still I wish you could stay.
I thought we would last till eternity,
but it's obvious now we won't.
You say you still want serenity,
but I'm pretty sure you don't.
Why do you tell me you want to stay close,
when you really want me out of your light.
Your love for her is obviously the most,
it's pure and courageous, you're her shining knight.
How did we stay so long in this moment,
don't even ask for a single tear.
Why was the secret kept of my opponent,
I don't even think I can cry if I wanted, I fear.
Of all the lies there is one that is true,
I thought you were the one for me.
Why couldn't you say you loved me too,
I truly thought we were meant to be.
A rose can be so sweet in love,
but from that and into pain can mean danger.
Normally I would be free as a dove,
but black as a crow when full of anger.
