The Pain I Feel

You promised me love

You promised me hope

You said that you'd be by my side,

for the rest of eternity

I cherished the warmth that you gave,

I desired the sound of your voice,

If only I'd realized, 

that your love was fake,

your rancid words held no meaning,

and the times we were with each other,

were only spent in vain.

You'll never come to understand

The pain that I've felt

As i spend the rest of this miserable life,

thinking about you,

missing you,

and above all,

somehow still loving you.

Author's Note

Like most of my poems, this wasn't inspired by a real event that happened in my life. However, i still hope it can paint a realistic picture of romance & heartbreak for those who read it.

I feel this really is about your life. But, that's okay. It's not my business to pry.

Love is a strange thing. We feel so in love with people. And when they hurt us, we still can't help but still love them. That is, until we reach the point where we grow to resent them.

Thanks for sharing.
