False Love- a temporary high

this is what i like to call "dark romance"

I told her I loved her. At least with my lips.

my hate for her was enough to drill holes and sink ships.

I told her I felt her presence whenever she came near

but in truth I became what she wanted and needed like a social engineer.

when she cried, I layed her head in my chest

and when she was done, I gave her my lap to rest

but to me it was all a game, putting my skills with women to the test

when she needed money, I was there.

didn’t ask for it back, didn’t care.

and as much as she was gaining love for me, I really didn’t care.

I called her every night,

I made sure I did her right,

and even though things seemed perfect, she had no clue of my planned flight.

I kissed her with passion

made her think our love was ever-lasting.

but little did she know she was just a pit stop and I was passing.

I made her body tweak

and even quickly got her to her peak

but little did she know she was only the flavor of the week.

I met her at four, even though I was a little late,

and then made sure we parted at 730 because I planned another girl at 8.

and they all loved me and told me I was different than most guys.

but me being the most dangerous is what they failed to realize.

I played all these girls, and had them waiting by their phone,

because I was once a good man when a woman decided to leave me alone.

and it wasn’t done out of the lack of compatibility or even my looks.

it was done because she wanted to know how long she could keep me on the books.

so I spread this virus to others, the temporary high of false love.

because I don’t want to be the only one that cries and looks to the skies above.

So I call another girl and continue this never ending game,

because I want every girl to experience this soul-breaking pain.

Wow; Intence to say the least.
I loved the subjest not many people admit to the playing the game of fake love and heat break.
My brother is one who will admit being a player in this game.
Sadly I must say I am starting to do the same,
I say "I will love you forever" when I know it's not true.
Amazing poem.

I can definately relate. I too would play games with others hearts and see how deep I could bring them into my world until I would see someone else that would catch me eye and move on as if they never existed. Unfortunately I regret what I have done now, but i have made changes in my life to make sure I do not go back to that lifestyle. Very well expressed poem. Keep writing.
