Those Three Words

A Poem by Kaelani

Those three words.
Those three simple words.
Said so often,
and yet
not enough.
Those three words can change everything,
for better,
and for worse.
He lied.
He said those three words.
Those three simple words.
And I fell for it.
I believed him.
He hurt me.
He played with my emotions.
Those three simple words changed everything,
for the worst.
Because of them,
I am dead inside.
I do not feel.
I am invisible.
I am yet to awaken.
Those three words.
Those three simple words,
KILLED ME.
