Because I love you

You loved me, for me

I loved you, for you

We made promises

You never kept

We planned our future

That you never believed 

Now you're gone

My heart is free at last

It's broken and tender

It's angry and scared 

Loving someone isn't what you think

It's work, a lot of hard work

Willingness to do anything 

To feel that spark again

You should fall in love again

Everyday, every moment

But you didn't do that

You crushed my heart

This is what it says when it's hurt:

Can you hear me

Can you see me

Can you see these wounds 

The wounds you inflicted on me

That's not love, love is healing

Love is joyousness

Love is caring

Listen to my heart:

I loved you no matter what

Through thick and thin

No matter how hard it gets

No matter how easy it seemed

I was right there beside you. 

See my heart was mindless

Love isn't mindless 

Love isn't careless

Love isn't manipulative

My heart still cries:

Can you hear me 

Can you see me

Can you see these wounds 

The wounds you inflicted on me

Love is renewal

Love is an adventure

Love leads to good things

Listen again, to my heart:

You tell me you're sorry

That you made another mistake

That you'll do right 

When I know you'll do wrong 

My heart knows 

It's time to let go

My brain is screaming 

"This isn't love!"

Heart cries out again:

Can you hear me

Can you see me

Can you see these wounds

The wounds you inflicted on me

I'm in pain, love isn't pain

Love is happiness 

Love is truthfulness

Love is undying

Love is a flame of fire

My heart has died

My brain lives to tell the tale:

You lied to me

You broke me in two

You act like everything is  alright

When everything is a mess

Love is clean

Love is holy

Love is divine

Love is forgiving 

My brain knows this 

But you turned love

Into a game

Love isn't a game

Love isn't who wins

Love isn't who loses

Love is forever

My brain knows to let go:

You won't give up 

You won't see the pain 

You won't look into my eyes

To see the pain you brought

You don't understand 

You won't understand

Love is admitting pain 

Love is letting each other in

Love is unbreakable

My heart croaks:

Can you hear me

Can you see me

Can you see these wounds

The wounds you inflicted on me

These wounds are big

These wounds need time

These wounds need space

These wounds tell me 

That you'll not stop

Love isn't harmful

Love isn't physical

Love is emotional

My body now speaks:

But every time I tell something

You second guess me

You turn around ask around 

And take the knife 

They have given you

And stabbed one million times

Thinking I'd be proud of you 

But I'm not

Love is trust

Love is protecting

Love is magical

I speak now:

You hurt me so much

I'm afraid to get hurt again

My heart is so pure

My heart is so big

This pain I feel is out of this world

I didn't know I could hurt so bad

My friend was right

You are no good for me

You show me that 

I'm too much for you

Can you hear me

Can you see me 

Can you see my broken heart

My broken trust 

My broken soul

You broke me to the core

I stood up for you

I fell down for you

I fought for you

I did everything for you

But what you did for me

Was push me pass my limits

Made me uncomfortable 

You pushed me away

As you withered inside

You locked me out

You slammed the door

What have I done to deserve this

What have I said to deserve this

My family took you in

You ran away

You say your scared

Can you hear my cries

Can you see my tears

Can you feel my blood 

drip through your hands

I'm tired, I'm sick

I'm withered down to nothing 

It's hard to breathe

It's hard to see

I'm strong but I'm tired.

Can you hear my breath fading away

Can you see my life drift away

Can you feel my blood in your hand

You did this 

Because you loved me

I let this happen because 

You and I were wrong

Love wasn't there

Love is strong 

Love is weak

Love is an unbreakable bond

Love is always there

Love isn't made

Love isn't crafted

Love is developed 

What we had wasn't love

Love is the exact opposite 

Thank you for teaching me
