Love Hurts Poem by Vanessa Kurtz

My love was taken away,
There yesterday, but gone today.
Someone stole my gift from above,
My one and only true love.
He told me he’d always be there,
Then he left without a care.
Gone to be with the other girl,
Completely trashing my world.
He said he loved me and I was the one,
Now I realize he was just having fun.
Telling me what I wanted to hear,
Saying that he wanted me near.
Asking if I’d go to MO, where he lived at,
Even giving me permission to bring my cats.
Telling me all these lies and bullshit,
Knowing I was believing it.
I’ve been used before but I’m still gullible,
I’ve been abused before but I’m still lovable,
Knowing there is no true love out there for me,
You’d think I’d not listen, not believe.
But I always fall for the ones that hurt me,
I guess being hurt is in my destiny.
