I Used To Poem by Rudy Hossam

I Used To

Rating: 4.5


I used to look up to you,
I thought you were so tough to reach,
I knew I won't reach to you,
I won't even be close.

The way you used to act,
It made you so perfect,
You were always right,
And never were you wrong.

I tried hard to be like you,
Or at lest a bit like you,
But it was always useless,
'cause I thought you were so pure.

But when we left each other,
I started to see the real you,
You aren't perfect at all,
Nothing like close.

Now I saw that I was the right one,
And made it like it was you,
'cause I wanted to feel that you were right,
In every single word.

I thought I'd be vain without you,
But now I knew you are nothing without me.

You were blinded by love, and it is easy to get that way.
