We never talked,
No not once.
So how did this happen to us?
One day,
You smiled at me,
Just one simple smile.
Then I was caught.
You walked up to me,
Asked to be friends,
I hesitated for just a moment,
Then replied yes.
I don't trust easily,
That's what I said,
But you had no problem,
Showing true love to me.
Best friends we became,
In no time at all.
I opened up to you,
And let it all show.
Soon after this day,
Friends was just a front,
We loved each other,
More than just a bunch.
You held my hand,
Squeezed it tight.
Told me you loved me and,
Said you'd never let go.
I believed every word you said,
We shared the deepest secrets,
And the mildest dreams.
Yes, we were meant to be.
One day I caught you,
With my friend.
You told me it wasn't true,
That it was all just a lie.
Then it happened again,
And I started to realized,
Our year and nine months,
Was all just a fake.
I didn't want to believe,
Everything I had heard and seen,
You were my life and,
You promised me everything.
You talked about a ring,
I thought forever we would be.
A symbol of love,
That's what you would give to me.
You held me close and whispered,
I've made a mistake,
Please forgive me.
O god, what have I done.
And I loved you so much,
That I always believed,
You really did love me,
And everyone would agree.
Then one day it ended.
Yes, just like that.
She took my hand and smiled,
I'm sorry but we can't be.
Looking down at my lap,
I started to cry.
I looked up at her and said,
Forever and a day is how much I love you.
She said she knew,
But we still couldn't be,
Another had taken my place,
And I just had to leave.
I said that,
Love so Deep and love so real,
Can never end,
So how could it be,
That she ever did love me?
She promised me she did,
Just too much had changed.
Day after day,
Tears remained to fall,
I'd never get over,
The best friend I'd lost.
Feeling so empty inside,
With no one around,
So alone.
I start thinking,
Could I ever be,
The person I once was?
I hope she understands,
How she hurt this tender heart.
I'll never open up,
Just to anyone at all.
Yet for some reason,
My love still remains...
No matter how shattered,
She left my heart to be,
And no matter how many times,
She lied and broke my trust...
I'll love her forever and a day.

I loved reading this poem. It is so sad, but so sweet that someone could love someone that much. It is very well written. Good luck in the contest.

I love this poem! When I was reading it, I just had this feeling inside that told me that this poem would go from a good love to something bad. And your words are completely true. I was hurt by someone a long time ago. I thought he loved me and wanted to be with me until one day I realized I was lying to myself b/c I knew he didn't really love me, yet my heart still loved him anyways for the longest time. But soon enough you realize there is someone else better out there for you and your times together will be amazing. Great write

wow...what an awesome way you have penned such agony, mistrust, hurt and pain into a beautiful write..much emotion felt here...most people after they have broken up, most, i say, have such anger and bitterness towards the other person, but you turned that around and spun hope, and uplifting feelings towards the other person....great job!
