You told me, 'I'll be there for you' <br />whispered sweet nothings in my ear <br />but when I seeked your guidance <br />found that you were never here <br />You told me, 'I was special' <br />and nothing like the others <br />but we were never together <br />really, no more than lovers <br />You told me, 'I got your back' <br />anytime you need a love <br />but whenever I would call <br />you abandoned me again <br />I told you, 'I was hurting' <br />but ignorance led your heart <br />I told you, 'I was dying' <br />but you never gave a solace! <br />I told you, 'It was over' <br />still you begged for me to stay <br />I told you, 'If I do' <br />things'll have to go my way <br />But you didn't want to listen <br />so now I'm thinking through <br />all the pain you I suffer <br />now that I am abandoned.<br /><br />Mahfooz Ali<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/abandoned-12/
