"Because I Love You"
In the beginning things were grand
Everything went as we planned
You loved me right and were true
I could not help but love you
But slowly and surely, there came a day
When all that was good faded away
You left and I was defeated
I did not know my love was so conceited
I feel the pain every day
The words "I love you" make my heart sway
Our love was renegade
Was it all just a charade?
"Because I love you" is not an excuse
No one should use love as abuse
Something so pure and right
Should not be tainted by your dark light
I loved you
And you changed my whole view
This poem is about:
Me
