Let Love Down

Let Love Down

A Poem by Joey Irwin

I can remember when you said you loved me
When you said you cared
I can remember when you first hugged me
And planted that first kiss
You told me I was the one
And you where the one for me too
But you let love down
You let my love down

I can remember when we planned to meet up for lunch
When you never turned up
I can remember when you were going to sleep at my house
And made up an excuse
I let all this fly over my head
And kept my love for you
But you let love down
You let my love down

I can remember when we split
When we argued all night long
I can remember when you said "don't talk to me"
And signed off
You told me to go away
As much as I didn't want to I did
You let love down
You let my love down

I can remember the nights of pain
When I would drink myself to sleep
I can remember the cuts in my heart
And I can still see the scars
I never got over you
I never would
But you let love down
You let MY love down

I agree this could be a good song
Maybe detach the last few lines, change them about a bit. Sweet!

I see this as a song. It's really good, you cans ee emotion behind it and it is written well. Well done

I agree with BriAnna, I hear music behind this. Also, I can relate to rejection in love and I too have felt this bitter, agony. Though I do hope you have had better experiences in love since!
:D Great job! :D

I don't know whether I should give you a thumbs up and tell you what a wonderful poem this was, or give you a hug and tell you how sorry I feel about what happened.

So, the poem was great and... sorry. :)

This is so sad and painful; you have captured the essence of love lost. Great poem!
