I Loved You When You Were Beautiful Poem by Augustus Billy Mutebesi

I loved you when you were beautiful
I love you still now when you are not.
I loved you when you were a virgin.
I still love you when that is gone.

I loved you when you rejected me
When you loved anyone else but me.
When you smiled for everyone but me.
When you wanted everyone but me.

I loved you past your silence
When you never remembered me
When they promised you their love
After they hurt and left you.

I loved you when others came
And you chose them over me
I loved you when they left again
And you chose another but me.

I will love you still now and ever
Love is still love even when it hurts
Love is still love even in a dream
Love is still love even when impossible.
