Love Me, For Real

True story.

Love Me, For Real

It was only about my face

Or was it some sick thrilling race?

 

Not love.

 

You held me in your arms

Told me I was safe from harm

 

I felt safe.

 

Your hands were on ablaze

My skin, they graze

 

I didn’t like this.

 

You had planned

To make me your one night stand

 

But no, this was the end of you and I.

 

I’m hurt and broken

But I was just a token.

 

Just a prize.

 

Just another girl

Not the special pearl

 

I thought I was.

Author's Note

True story, this was about an ex of mine. He left me pretty hurt.

ah heartbreak. it's a pain that hurts so much i swear i'd prefer physical pain. the idea that you weren't special to this person you've grown to love always hurts. it really sucks if you find out you're supposed to have been a one night stand. that's like adding insult to injury. i can certainly relate to this poem

[♥Chloe-The-Zombi..]
