I Thought That You Would Be The One Poem by david lessard

I thought that you would be the one,
The girl who'd be my mate -
But when all is said and done,
Your love turned into hate.

I thought that you would be the one,
To bury all my sorrows -
But when all is said and done,
You took all my tomorrows.

And left me with this present day,
To mourn what's left behind -
To face the bleak and barren way,
To forget those of your kind.

I thought that you would be the one,
But alas, I know your not -
And when all is said and done,
You weren't the one I sought.

I thought that you would be the one,
Now I know that love's not fair -
And when all is said and done,
I alone, am standing there.
