All That Was Lost
All That Was LostSVH
I’m tired of trying, tired of crying
Deep down inside you knew I’ve been dying
Im honest with you, I’m not even lying
But my dedication to you was the only thing you’re fighting
I loved your face, I loved your laugh
I adored your eyes, how you would look back
Smile, hug, and tell me it’s all okay
But suddenly you left me at the end of the day
A final goodbye I hadn’t the chance to say
Cause all you were doing was pushing me away
I became your enemy, on you features a snarl
Every single time we talked; a quiet quarrel
I never expected you wanting it this way
Not wanting me to stick around, or to stay
I regret trusting you, I abhor your attitude
Your anger and deception was really quite rude
At the same time, I wanted you to say
Oh, my dear lover, my love towards you isn’t a game
I pushed back, I struggled, I raged and I fought
The feelings and emotions and inside that you taught
The tears of misery, the shame on your face
Was all just an act, calling me a waste
I’m sorry I lied, I’m sorry to say goodbye
But all in all, you don’t care, so why should I?
well it kept my interest, the ending didn’t disappoint me, you showed what this ‘love without tomorrow’ was all about efficiently.
not sure about this line:
and inside that you taught
is there a typo there? thanks for sharing
its supposed to be sought.. srry lol
There’s so much sadness shared in this poem, I felt the honest and open vulnerability, which left me feeling the writers situation.
