Didn't Know


You didn't know but,

                   you were my world

 

You said it was too much,

                        this love we had

 

Too intense,

I didn't know this was some fad

 

How was I supposed to know it was that bad?

You severed the ties

out of nowhere

I cried

 

You look at me as if you're the one who should be in pain

so I'm the one looking at you in vain

 

Didn't know you were so evil

Didn't know you could hurt me so bad

Didn't know this great love gained could turn into a tragic love lost

Should I be this sad?

 

You put me in a place where all my sorrows can't be hidden

All of this anger not now forbidden

 

You made me cry like this was the end,

bend at the waist for God,

pray for an answer for the things I

                                                         did

                                                                not

                                                                       know

              

So now I know what I didn't know before,

                                                    you are not my world anymore

 

Just a love lost.
