GOODBYE

By: LISA P

I look back now, and all I see
is you taking advantage of my love and of me.

Only seeing you when I invite myself,
you took my heart and placed it on a shelf.

Kept for when you needed something to do,
I only wish you loved me too.

The things you say and the way you touch,
I can't help but to need and want you so much.

When will I learn it's all a game,
That none of the time we spent, you felt the same?

Our relationship was built on one thing, not trust
but the way I held on, my feelings of lust.

I thought I loved you; I gave you my all.
You seemed so perfect: broad shouldered and tall.

And you gave me excuses every time.
All I ever wanted was for you to be mine.

You lied, decieved, and threw me away.
I just can't wait for that glorious day...

That you will feel all the hurt and pain
I feel every day; my tears fall like rain.

But I am not here to call you an ass.
After all, from now on, it's all in the past.

I'm moving on; I'm letting go.
Now it's my turn to give you the throw.
