Love Lost

Lost an unforgettable love

I had given you all of me, without any hesitation
You became the air I breathe, and I got lost in translation

You isolated me from friends, in order to maintain control
I was blind and missed the trends, and you ate my heart whole

I feel like a piece of me died, I sacrificed all of me
I gave you my all and I tried, I slowly became a dying tree

Given what life threw your way, I did all I could to be your support system
I had no idea how to be so you pushed me away, you just became so distant

I would zone out into my little world, having a mental battle within
Here the true struggle unfurled, and here's where losing you begins

My life orbited you alone, everything I did was because of you
You were my pilot I was the drone, our love changed in color and hue

In my head I saw engagement and marriage, you were my only one
But our relationship burst like a hemorrhage, and the pain weighs a ton

I know I made mistakes, I lied about stupid little things
You would burn me at the stake, you were the puppeteer dangling me on strings

Then I finally opened my eyes, and realized what was happening
I started to see through your disguise, so we clashed and started battling

You had already left me in your mind, absent and misleading
You were suffocating in your own bind, knowing that you were cheating

I was the recipient of all that was going wrong, you excluded yourself of any blame
All you were doing was playing along, trying to battle all your shame

You cheated on me and you knew it, not knowing what to do
So you pushed me away so I would say screw it, and played me for a fool

Everything started to become my fault, no matter what it was
Constant emotional assault, creating problems without cause

You can't acknowledge your mistakes, showing lack of humility
And that is a huge disgrace, you took no personal responsibility
