I was so mistaken... View table of contents...

I thought I meant something to you,

Something other than this.

But now I wonder why I ever thought that,

When you clearly had no cares for me.

***

I was so blinded by love,

I thought you were the one,

But you lied to me,

And broke my heart.

***

I had so much trust in you,

I looked up to you as my savior,

Someone who really cared,

But I guess I was wrong.

***

You made me think something that wasn’t true,

You led my feelings astray.

You kept me thinking you cared, you loved me,

And then you went away.

***

You ignored me,

You thought I was insignificant.

You left me in the dark with no one to protect me,

And let pain overtake me without a glance in my direction.

***

I really thought you cared,

I really thought you loved me,

But you were just using me for your advantage,

Just to feel powerful because of your weaknesses.

***

You let people walk all over me,

Even after all I had done for you.

I would have helped you fight your battles,

But you chose to hurt me instead.

***

It felt so great for you to be on top,

You didn’t care who you hurt.

I stumbled, you laughed,

I cried, you mocked.

***

You killed me,

You knew my heart was so fragile,

You shattered it like glass in a second,

Just for your personal gain.

***

I was so mistaken,

I thought I had found the one.

But you are just like the rest,

A liar.

***

Now I’m nothing inside anymore,

And not a single person knows what’s wrong.

I’m repairing slowly,

Hiding from my attackers.

***

I will not let this happen to myself again,

I will not be so blinded by love that I cannot see a lie.

I won’t make the same mistake again,

I will not depend on you anymore.

Thank you! :D

Great poem Danielle. My eyes started to water, because I know exactly how it feels. Really. I had such a deep emotional connection to it, and that is very rare. Fantastic work.

Thanks so much Devon =)

Wow this is really deep, i love it...it really captures hurt, sorrow and pain after a relationship(ofcourse keeping in mind that you got hurt) i loved this
"I looked up to you as my savior"
Because this is soo true, when you are in love or deep in a relationship you do look towards that person as your own personal savior in more ways than one and i love the way you added "But you were just using me for your advantage"
really good work!

Lol. Thanks =]

I've been there.
But they actually are not all the same, despite the hype.
There were a lot of emotions I felt reading this one.
Great job.
