broken hearts

By: ashley elizabeth m

Have you ever met that someone
Who you thought would treat you right
They said that they would always love you
Every day and every night
You believed the lies they said
And each night as you lay in bed
Your heart would stretch out to them even longer
And your love for them would grow stronger
You were willing to do anything
Give up everything in the world for him
But little did you know
The light of his love was dim
His love for you was not true
How could it possibly be
When one moment he said he was yours forever
Then a moment later he said it was no longer him and me
The lies he whispered in your ear
That made your body rush with delight
Now come back to haunt you
And keep you up at night with fright
For your heart is a special part
And should be watched over with care
But now it has been hurt, stabbed with a dart
And you don’t know if you’ll ever be able to part
With it again
Will I ever love again?
Will I ever trust a man
To take care of me and be true
I don’t know if I’ll ever be able to get that far
After being heartbroken for so long, my whole body still feels blue.
