A poem about heartache from a lost relationship.
I was yours, but you were never mine

I was down for you
Stood up for you
Gave my heart to you
And when it was time to stand up and be my man
What did you do?
Don’t worry
We both know,
So I choose to let go…
Let go the hurt
Let go the pain
Even though my tears flow like the rain.
Love you I do
Hate you never
Love was meant to last forever
I was you girl in all kinds of weather
Down for whatever
Ride or die
My love was true
My pain is real
The heart never lied.
How do you say good bye
When your heart still wonders why
Love should have been shared
Not caught unaware.

Trials pain and tribulation
Prayers fasting calling on His name,
Still night and day
Everything stayed the same.
I can’t believe it came this
He said,
What else was there for me
I gave you the best of me
Gave and gave
Till there was nothing left me
Why can’t you see?
It was never about me or we
It was all about you and yours
You never opened your heart’s door.
What is it you need?
I begged and begged
Talk to me I pleaded
My heart cut so deep
It bleeds.
You said I couldn’t see
I said show me
Know me
Love me
Let me in.
You closed the door,
Closed your heart
There was no way I could win
I gave you all of me
The best parts of my heart
Your heat, you gave
In parts
A little to me
A little to them
Deny it if you will,
But I know the deal.
Ignorance is bliss and
Love is blind
I knew all along
You were never mine.
Lonely nights
An empty bed
A husband in name
Never acting the same.
Hear one week
Gone the next
With me today
With her tonight
How did you think
That was alright?
Every fool will one day wake up
Every dog has his day
Love is a gamble
That’s what they say
Shake my head
Hold it up high and sigh
I was yours, but you were never mine.
