The Power of Deceit

Harsh words tumbling in the air
I still need him but he doesn't care,
My fragile soul begins to tear
The torment I now endure isn't fair

He used me, abused me, made me frail
And now I think, what can the future entail?
It must be bleak without him by my side
But to him - I was just a fairground ride

Stay with me for a fast, rushed fling,
Then stroll away as if we were nothing
Callously, deceitfully, he abandoned me (why?!)
And I can't give him up - alone I cry.

    This is very impressive. Your rhyme and rhythm, in my opinion are very much on the money. Good job. Shancy.

    Brava!

    Dear CA,
    The anguish of young love is eloquently stated here... My wish for you is that you always keep the
    beautiful memories, let the sadness go and look to the future love that will come to you...
    Your true love is yet to come...
    So in a way your old love was preparing the way for your future heart's delight and this time there will be no pain because it will last foverer!!!
    BUT, I am a romantic!
    You poem touched my heart! Brava!
    Jane
