Unrequited Love.

unrequited.

a word I must get used to.

you say actions speak louder than words but your actions are lying.

every word previously spoken just leaves me upset or crying.

my body stings around the places you once held it.

anything I felt for you I now regret it.

I didn't know that you never felt the same.

you led me on never showing an ounce of shame.

you didn't care and now I'm left with the pain.

the pain of knowing you is the worst yet.

none of my feelings for you will I forget.

especially the ones engraved in me now.

after all this time I meant that little to you.

and yet you didn't care because I was "giving it up to you"

that's what you do with the person you love

you stole that from me there is no life judge

I cant go to court, like you'd plead guilty anyway

how many girls hearts do you have locked away?

well here's one added to the shelf

along with that you took my self wealth.

just give it all back,

but then again maybe I don't want it.

I trusted you but all your words weren't honest.

so here's one for the books

a girls message back to you.

and I hope one day you find what those girls gave to you.

a heart.

now I know for you that may not be so easy to find.

I hope you have to search until the end of time

to the depths of hell where you originated

I can honestly say you're the only person I've ever truly hated.

so take these words,

ones others may be scared to say

and look at yourself,

because that's all you have at the end of the day.
