 | Tone Poem: Subject: Heartbreak, Feeling: Anger and Bitterness
By: Candace Sanchez
Why? You always said you loved me. It always sounded true.
I never had a doubt in my mind, while falling over you.
I loved you more than anything, nothing got in my way.
But now you stand before me, telling me we’re through.
You said you loved me, but I guess it was only for a while.
Everything you said to me was only there to beguile.
As the weeks went by, I never gave a second thought.
But I guess Loyalty and Honesty, Love and Affection were not things you were taught.
I loved you; you were dearer than life. I would have given you the world.
Then cursed and sour words came from your tainted lips. Then my heart was beaten down, it died and curled.
Why? Did you do that to me? Was it something I did?
No, I didn’t do anything, to uncover that secret, where in your black heart it hid.
You said you loved me, I guess it was only for a while.
Everything you said to me was only there to beguile.
As the weeks went by, I never gave a second thought.
But I guess Loyal Love and Honesty were not among the things you were taught.
Why? Does this happen to me? What I got was Lies and Deception.
I loved you and you threw it away. You ruined my Conception.
All I did for you. My loving protection, I wasted it on you.
And in the end, it was my heart that was slain. And so to you I say Adieu!
You said you loved me, but I guess it was only for a while.
Everything you said to me was only there to beguile.
As the weeks went by, I never gave a second thought.
But in the end, in a net my heart was caught.
Why? Why Me? Adieu!
Even the Devil has a ways to go, till he catches up to you!
Adieu! No Longer Do I Love You!
I hate you! A Final Goodbye! Adieu!
You said you loved me, but I guess it was only for a while.
Everything you said to me was only there to beguile.
As the weeks went by, I never gave a second thought.
Now I lay in my own blood. My Heart still pumping with love,
But that vein was severed, so in my blood puddle, I die.
All because of the things you weren’t taught.
Adieu!
