Love Story Gone Bad

I had a life way before this, maybe not the best but it was filled with happiness. I lived day by day not worrying about a girl; I had a life a perfect world. When I took you in I didn’t think it would work out. Break ups to make ups my life started going south.
After a few months the pain subsided and the anger went a way, I was a happy man but still afraid. Confused about what to do I devoted my world to you; I gave you all I could including my love which was true. I never lied to you, not once at all. I never thought about cheating on you because I didn’t want to take that fall. One thing I gave you most was my honesty and trust. But you took it for granted and thought I used you for lust. I refused plenty of times but you seemed to go on, am I the one with the problems? Or is it your own. You said I didn’t trust you but how can that be? You lied to my face and were never truthful with me. Happiness was gone and filled with defeat. A month before we broke up, I could see it in your face, it seem like you didn’t care; it felt like I was your waste.
The only way “I did you wrong” was giving you what you want, I gave so much I forgot about my self, it seemed nothing I did was good enough for you. It felt like you walked all over me like gum on your shoe.
I do have to admit does hurt a lot to see you go, But my tears ran dry after you played me like an average Joe. Your right in many ways, but your wrong as well. You didn’t treat me any good and you didn’t care how I felt. If you did, this would have never happened and things would have been good. Three years down the drain, never thought it would end like this, but hey that’s life; survival of the fittest.
So I’m going to live my life, and build my pride. I don’t hate you for who you are, because you’re amazing in many ways. I’m never going to forget about you or all the good times we shared. Now it’s in the past, and so was the love we had.

'It is only with the heart that one can see clearly. What's essential is invisible to the eye'
~Antoine deSaint Exupéry
