why did i

why did i trust you

why did i care

i trusted you with everything

i told you i loved you

you told me you loved me

so why

why did you leave me

why did you shatter my heart

why did you tell me you would always be there

and then walk away

you promised

i promised

and i believed you

why did you bring up marriage

why did you bring up kids

why did you bring up a house

i though you wanted these things with me

i though you'd love me

but you left

the last thing you said was

leave me alone

and i was completely broken

completely destroyed

completely humiliated

so why

why do i care for you

why do i look out for you

why when you have stabbed me

do i try to protect you

why

I have certainly felt this same emotion, same discussions of marriage, kids and a home, it's bewildering that someone will make these promises only to break them soon after, it destroys your faith in love and honesty. I think you have definately poured your heart into this one. Takes a while to get over this kind of betrayal, but I can tell you it does happen. thanks for sharing.

i loved it. i could definitely feel the emotion pouring out of this. the most meaningful poems are the ones you write in order to express what your feeling. you did that. keep up with it.
