I thought I knew, I thought I felt your love.
Your love I felt was not love but the touch of a hate filled child.
I thought I knew us, I thought we would marry, and be a white dove.
You played the part so well,
all were fooled, no one could tell,
Your words were dry ice,
they did not suffice,
I thought I wanted you, I thought I wanted you so badly,
You showed me otherwise, you loved me inadequately.
How could I want what you are?
How could I love such deceits and pain,
I've traveled so far,
your the only one to blame.
My love was true, yours was never
the scales were tipped, you were so clever.
And I laying broken and battered in pain,
shall never love again.
A gift of breakage.
for that is all you ever gave me,
broken life, broken mind, broken heart,
I thought I wanted you, I thought you wanted me.
I felt you loved me.
Such deception it will always be.
