Broken Poem by Annie Copper

I've never felt so lonely, I've never felt so sad,
Knowing that the love I felt, will not again be had.
I thought he was in love with me, I believed he cared,
I gave him every part of me, my soul to him was bared.
The times that I have shared with him, were blissful and content,
The moments when we were apart, were longing and hard spent.

Now I have a lifetime, of being far apart,
Knowing that the one I love, no longer wants my heart.
The pain keeps washing over me, in tides and tsunamis,
Never again to feel the love, between our two bodies.

I thought that he was different, trusted he could not hurt me,
I still find it hard to believe, how can this really be?
We had a life infront of us, we had all our plans,
Now he's killed and burried them, he squashed them in his hands.
How do you go from being in love, to not caring at all?
From wanting everything for them, to aiding in their fall?

Love can be so blissful, love can be so hard,
Love can be your making, love can leave you scarred.
He taught me how to love again, he showed me how to trust,
Now all I know is pain and loss, upon me they've been thrust.
I do not have a choice in it, I do not have a vote,
He's taken all my views and voice, and cancelled their lifeboat.
In the waves their crashing, crying out for air,
But no-ones there to listen, no-ones there to care.

Forever I promised, my heart would be in his,
Unfortunately it is the truth, I'll never have eternal bliss.
Forever I promised, I'd be forever by his side,
And that is where my soul will stay, in the shadows it will hide.
My friend, partner and lover, I will always be yours,
Our love and memories remain, behind my hearts now blackened doors.
