You built me up with hollow notions.
Inflated my hopes with empty words.
You promised me everything I wanted,
but I ended up with nothing but pain and hurt.

How could I be so stupid,
and believe everything you ever said?
It sounded so good at the time,
picturing what could be, in my head.

But reality got in the way,
and exposed you for a liar.
You really didn’t care,
and now my hearts on fire.

How could you do it?
Played with my emotions like a game.
I am not your innocent plaything.
and I now must live with shame.
A Poem I wrote after my ex girlfriend cheated on me.
