He Left Me

by Owner of an Untamed Heart   Sep 14, 2012


It was like a slap in the face
A broken thought without a trace
How could I have been this foolish
On the right path, I took the wrong turn
Uncommitment was what my heart had earned
How could I have acted so stupid

No such luck even though you tried hard
You played a fair game
But I cheated from the cards
You said you loved me
But just like my heart
I didn't pay you any mind

And now look at me
I'm completely drenched in jealousy
I've become what you wanted me to be
Your lips closing towards hers
From staring, my eyes start to burn
Why did I let myself become this weak

I watch your sunrise eyes
Scan the room and I heard you sigh
For a while, I thought you had forgotten me
But when you saw me, you smiled
And I broke down inside
And for a second, my heart died

You tried so hard
You played a great game
But I wasn't smart
You said you loved me
But just like my heart
I didn't pay it any mind

And so you left me behind
And even if you asked me to love you now
I couldn't even if it saved my life

    This is amazing. It's filled with such raw emotion and the descriptions you've used here really help to convey the image across through the written words. It's like foolishness, then jealousy, but even if given the opportunity you couldn't love them the way they need. Great job here, I enjoyed reading this!! :)
