You don't own me anymore

by Valiantpenguin   Jun 5, 2009


What a fool was I to believe you
All the lies you told me
How could I not see what you were?
How could I not see what you were doing?

For three months you held me
You told me how much you loved to
You promised the world and said all the right things
You didn't think it was wrong did you?

For three months you used me
You took what can only be given once
You swore you loved me with all your heart
How could I let you make me a dunce?

All the lies you fed me made me strong though
I've grown hard, and my heart is hard to find
It almost hurts to trust someone
And I hate that you have this control on my mind

You made me feel loved for once in my life
I once thought I'd have to settle
But you made me think i didn't need to
You kissed just right to metal

You were everything i always thought i wanted
Said everything i thought i wanted to hear
Now I see that I was a rebound
without a broken heart you'd never have come near

But I don't cry when i think about you anymore
My heart doesn't skip a beat when i see you smile
I don't long to kiss those lips, or look in those eyes
And when you leave i don't promise "it's only for a while"

Yes i write this poem out of hatred and pain and love
But i don't need you anymore
i don't crave for your touch
You don't own me anymore

You were my first love
The one i thought would last forever
I did everything for you
And you never loved me. Never.
