Other Than My Self Poem by Eman Awad

I was so devoted, wasn't i?
other than my self i always thought of you.
And my sanity for you i defy,
trying to make each dream of ours come true.
The whole world was you to me,
i made a promise to the love of mine.
I shall never refrain or be free,
and my love will grow stronger with time.
Other than my self i saw you,
and other than you i saw no one.
My life i gave away for you,
i thought you are the chosen one.
Like you were chosen for my pain,
not to make me fall in love at last.
Language to me was just your name,
and my days yet to come and my past.
And with such love and nothing in return,
i got lost in silence then i was left in the dark.
All my poems of you in my fire got burned,
pain killed me and cruelty knew it's way to my heart.
Don't be surprised if you saw me,
laughing at your tears as you die.
This heart died a thousand times in me,
and those eyes knew nothing but to cry.
Don't tell me, love can't be hate,
i went beyond hating you a long time ago.
Don't remind me of my blind faite,
let me tell you my words, just let me go.
For all the pain you caused me,
lying in the name of love that you never knew.
We were never meant to be,
and other than my self i should've seen the world,
i should've seen my dreams not you...
