You told me you loved me
And I was the only one out there
That you would ever lay eyes upon
But I saw the glint in your eyes
When you looked at her
You told me you loved me
That she was nothing
But a pretty face
And a link
To get closer to me
And you have to keep the peace
I was thrown in my confusion
And knew it wise to take a break
But you told me you couldn't live without me
The next day
I saw you with that "just another pretty face"
You broke my heart
So don't even tell me you love me
I couldn't live without you
But you could obviously live without me
And I was apparently just not what you wanted after all
And you never loved me
No matter how many times you said it to my face
I fell for the lies you told me
But I won't do it again
Because I won't get back up
To be dropped again
Author notes
i looked back at the poem and didn't know if the title could fit, so the last stanza was kinda dropped on in the end. hopefully it still fits.

It does still fit. I like the way you put in "I saw you with that "just another pretty face"" It made the poem sound so... I can't really explain, but it was good. Thanks for the entry and Luck!
