I DID Love You

Sometimes it is hard to show someone you love them. Then it becomes too late.

You betrayed

Us.

You betrayed

Me.

I never thought

You would.

You seemed

So happy.

I thought you

Loved it here.

I made sure 

You were well

Trained just like

The others

But you turned

That against

Us.

Your mind was

Twisted

And you believed

We did not

Love you.

That we were just

Using you.

But I 

Loved you.

I wanted you to

See that.

But you couldn't.

Your heart

Was deteriorating.

You were slowly

Dying.

I tried my 

Very best to

Keep that sweet

Radiant smile on

You.

But it slowly

Faded.

I had to 

Fight you in 

Order to 

Not let you

Hurt my family.

You thought that

I betrayed you.

But I 

Loved you.

Instead you pushed 

Me away

Trying to tell 

Yourself that it was

A lie.

But it wasn't.

I truly did 

Love you.

The whole time

You were with 

Us

But now that is

Gone.

So to show you

I planted an

Everlasting kiss

On your lips.

Tears ran down 

My cheeks

And as tears 

Ran down yours

You began to

Flutter away.

Flower petals

Taking flight to the

Sky.

Soon you were

No longer there

And I stood there

Wishing that you

Hadn't had done

What you did.

This is strong... Your words mesh with the format a slow decent into your tiresome efforts to show that you loved. As the length of the poem increases so does the anxiety and emotion behind your sincere efforts. Good work my friend write in 🙏🏿👊🏾
