Greatest Love You'D Ever Known Poem by Rachel Henley

I would never abandon the memories in my heart.
What I felt is still there, even from the start.
You still love me, I could hear the croaking in your voice.
Did he make you choose? Did you even have a choice?

Because I'm still waiting where our memories used to be.
Hoping that somewhere in your heart, you always left some room for me.
All we dreamt and the future we both looked forward to,
Is burning silently inside of me, and I hope theres a flicker in you.

You're making love to him and it sickens me,
I know he doesn't protect you like I did, when you were asleep.
Of course I am bitter, That I will admit.
But I don't even hate you, Not even a little bit.

Your children will be beautiful and you won't die alone.
But you will die knowing that, I was the greatest love you'd ever known.
It kills me everyday in every possible way,
That no matter what I did, nothing could make you stay.
