To the boy who took advantage of meA Poem by E.J. Michalec
I told you that I loved you
Your love wasn’t the same kind Until the summer when my belly shrank And you had changed your mind I found this quite suspicious But hey, I had you in my arms You told me that you loved me In the end it caused me harm I did more than I should have I just wanted your smile I would give you just an inch And you would take a mile I didn’t want to lose you But you had other plans I told you to be honest You held me in your hands Time and time again you lied You had me on a string With time you would snap it back Which just worsens the sting I told you that I loved you Responses few and far between You said that you were there for me But that isn’t what you mean You wanted to be comfortable So you dragged me by your side I’m not your puppet though, my dear So I guess I’ll say goodbye Over time I’ve learned my worth For which you never gave me credit And every time I think of you It’s hard not to regret it We used to be the best of friends And now we’re distant strangers You wanted somewhere in between But that would put my heart in danger Despite missing you once in a while I can’t forget your crime Undercover thief, my dear You robbed me of my time © 2018 E.J.
