Never Loved

You wish for the love you once had
a dream of distortion,
she never loved you
and never will

You were close enough to him
close enough to pretend
you,
your being,
was just an illusion

You brought her happiness,
washed away her pain
picked her up from the cold callous depths
that he had thrown her to

she saw your face and smiled,
loving him
she told you that you were her focus
but knew it was him

you loved,
you truly loved, unconditionally
loved without price
making yourself cheaper to her
worthless

she told you she never wanted it to end
then threw you away
left you in the cold

you were fool enough to have hope
fool enough to believe in love
fool enough to be a tool

she said you were better,
a nicer guy
selfless
then told you to leave and never come back

you gave all you could,
but it wasn't enough
for her to stay
when he came back,
the illusion was shattered
and you were no more

she never loved you
and never will

    Harsh and blunt emotion, which I like.
    "making yourself cheaper to her
    worthless"
    I relate.
    Well done, good luck!

    Wow great write!

    I really enjoy this piece. I know this feeling quite well, but what can you do? They can't be honest with you if they are not honest with themselves. I love the flow and the message, excellent job!
