Would you rather harm me to make you feel right? <br />Does it seem right to cause me to cry at night? <br />How could you lie to my face for a single smile? <br />We both know it only lasts a little while. <br /> <br />In my heart I know its true. <br />All thats in vain is my love for you. <br />You loved me once. <br />You say you still do. <br />But love isn't what you say. <br />Nor is is what you do. <br /> <br />They're just not real, another painful lie. <br />The beauty you claim I was will soon die. <br />I'm not strong, like you said I am. <br />You can't hold onto me just because you can. <br /> <br />Figure out what you feel, for my love is true. <br />I'm sick and tired of shedding tears for you. <br />You promised me your life, your support, your love. <br />But I will not believe that when 'tis 'her' you speak of. <br /> <br />T'was not her who wiped your tears. <br />T'was not her who calmed your fears. <br />T'was I who devoted my love to thee. <br />Yet 'tis her whom you love, her, not me. <br /> <br />A fool I am to have given you my heart. <br />I will continue to let you rip it apart. <br />I will move on, but without further ado. <br />But I will secretly hold on, because I still love you.<br /><br />Nadia Gray<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/no-more-31/
