I Told You So Poem by Ivory Strife

Memories race through, the back of my mind,
slowly fading away, in the sands of time,
Memories of my past, memories of my life, memories of you.
I remember how you said you loved me too,
even after all the things I put you through.
I remember how you kissed me, touched me, let me fall,
but you didn't catch me!

Don't wake me up just leave me be,
as time flies by I began to see,
I remember it all now!

'I'll never leave you' that's what you said,
but as I lie here on my death bed,
I realize you're nowhere in sight.
And if I do die here to night,
I just wanted you to know,
I told you so!

I knew this wasn't going to work,
we were going way too fast,
I knew we would never ever last!
You said 'We'll be okay.'
But just remember I was the one to say,
I told you so!
'I love you' you'd always say,
but the dawn brings me a brand new day,
and I don't love you anymore!
I told you so!
I told you so.

Before you I was a broken mess,
without a care in the world, so heartless.
But as I began to age,
I met you and my whole world started to change.
Now full of color and full of life,
everything was going just fine until you-
YOU broke my heart in two!
Now all I want is to be free,
even if that means hanging myself from the nearest tree!
'I will love you until I die' that was by far your biggest lie.
But before you leave my life,
I need to let you know,
I told you so!

I knew this wasn't going to work,
you were going way too fast,
I knew it would never ever last!
I said 'Nothing is okay.'
Just remember who it was to say,
I told you so...
I told you so.
