Love Me, For Real

True story.

Love Me, For Real

It was only about my face

Or was it some sick thrilling race?

 

Not love.

 

You held me in your arms

Told me I was safe from harm

 

I felt safe.

 

Your hands were on ablaze

My skin, they graze

 

I didn’t like this.

 

You had planned

To make me your one night stand

 

But no, this was the end of you and I.

 

I’m hurt and broken

But I was just a token.

 

Just a prize.

 

Just another girl

Not the special pearl

 

I thought I was.

Author's Note

True story, this was about an ex of mine. He left me pretty hurt.

ah heartbreak. it's a pain that hurts so much i swear i'd prefer physical pain. the idea that you weren't special to this person you've grown to love always hurts. it really sucks if you find out you're supposed to have been a one night stand. that's like adding insult to injury. i can certainly relate to this poem

[Margaret Marie Hubbard]

You'll find through time the ones that work hard at earning your love and trust are the ones who will stick around. Keep your heart on a shelf and do not hand it out to anyone unless they have first proven they can be trusted with it! ;)

I love the way you wrote this. Heartbreak is such an awful thing, especialy when you give your all and the person you think you are in love with does not feel the same way. Everyone wants to feel loved, wants to feel wanted, wants to feel special, and sometimes its hard to find...but your poem does such a beautiful job of portraying the emotions and thoughts that come after being used. Nice job :)

Heartbreak sucks. It really does. I do not how it feels. It just leaves you feeling hurt for days on end, you keep asking yourself Why? But you can't find a plausible explanation. It was really sad and very emotional to read. I haven't ever cheated on anyone before, but have ended relationships. It was the worst feeling that I have ever felt before. I don't know what's more difficult: being dumped, or ending the relationship? But I can only imagine the pain to find out that your partner was just using you; it must have been awful. But it was a great piece of poetry and an event that a lot of people can definitely relate to in some form or another.
