you said you loved me
i said it back.
you said you needed me
i was grateful to hear that.
you said you were mine
and i said i am yours.
you said forever
and i said forever more.
you said you didn’t want to lose me
and i was content
but then you disappeared
leaving my tears alone with nowhere to vent.
you blamed it on the timing
i didn’t agree.
you blamed it on yourself
and i blamed it on me.
did i not love you enough?
were my hugs and kisses too flat?
i said i love you.
but you didn’t say it back.

you said you loved me
i said it back.
you said you needed me
i was grateful to hear that.
you said you were mine
and i said i am yours.
you said forever
and i said forever more.
you said you didn’t want to lose me
and i was content
but then you disappeared
leaving my tears alone with nowhere to vent.
you blamed it on the timing
i didn’t agree.
you blamed it on yourself
and i blamed it on me.
did i not love you enough?
were my hugs and kisses too flat?
i said i love you.
but you didn’t say it back.
