The Unpaid Cost Of Your Love

I loved you like nothing could ever be lost. I gave you my heart without a price or a cost. The mistake I made when I thought it was true..was sayin three words "I Love you."
*************************************************************************************

Holding no secrets, my heart did bare all,
forbidding nothing, I gave you a call.
Saving naught for discretion nor my shame,
I walked unwittingly into your game.

No value was too great when I looked on,
no treasure was denied all those years long.
Gold was dull compared to the smile here,
I only wish it lingered throughout all years.

Bearing my soul, offering you love's gift,
I barely escaped the pain and it's jist.
Memories taunt as three words sing aloud,
"I love you" is lost forever in clouds.

Should I ever sing of my heart's meaning,
I pray I'll remember your soul's gleaning.
Goodnight is all offered in this moment,
for love could not be, I should've known it.

My voice is silenced now unto your ears,

you no longer listen as I shed tears.

No phone is answered as I lay to sleep,

my pillow catches all that I now weep.

Praying heartache will no longer embrace,

I hope you enjoyed how my love did taste.

In the mourning I will then disappear,

leaving you mocking those whom I now fear.

Knowing I was only a game to you,

I hang my head as my heart turns dark blue.

Goodbye forever is my only hope,

for without it I cannot ever cope.

Live your life and enjoy your truest love,

she was sent to you from heaven above.

My mistake was what she suddenly gleaned,

I only wish that I had loudly screamed.

No love offered to another again,

you taught me to silently take a stand.

The cost was monumental, never paid...

did you really leave while memories stayed?
