I was a broken soul before I let you into my world...was broken to the point where I wanted to let nobody in, but you told me things will be well, you gave me hope that the pain I feel now and the distrust I had about the opposite gender would soon be the past.

You showed me the love I never had, you showed me the other side of love I've never had before, you led me into the world of cupid where everything were possible, I had to work on myself, crush away the very thoughts I had initially, the pain I felt was gone, joy came in to me, I had stop blaming every guy for what other guys did to me. I soon had the mentality that all guys were not the same.

I let you in my world with no doubt... But I was wrong.

you led me into the world of us and you stayed at the gate, soon as you led me into that world you wanted to leave, I was there and kept wondering why is it that you always looking out little did I know was that u wanted to leave.

As I went through the pictures of your past,
I happened to notice the happiness that was on ur face, the joy that filled you on those pictures, it seemed you were a man with great joy, I then looked at the pictures of us, a great difference. Your face was filled with grief, the sadness that was pronounced by your face was real, the sadness that came out of your eyes was undescribable, the way you now look at me has changed, u no longer see me as that girl anymore, I kept wondering did I do something wrong?
My self esteem has started to be shakey,
I now doubt me, looking at me on the mirror, me is not good enough anymore, me is not so pretty anymore, the disappointment I see looking me on the mirror has brought pain into me.

You led me into the world of us, and stayed at the gate, leaving me in a house alone filled with empty rooms....
