Do you really?


 I Love You,

those three words solidify,

a new life full of magnificence and happiness,

or unexplainable catastrophe.

With you, 

I could not deny it wasn't true,

the three words you said to me,

I replied unto you,

were not lies told as the truth.

The first time we meet,

I believed you were my future.

Not only did I LOVE you,

I LIVED you.

Soon you became my life force,

my only priority,

becuse that's what you wanted.

Your wishes became my only commands.

I was blinded by the feeling,

by the kisses that only leaked your evil,

your greed,

and that signified my signature 

on a contract I was oblivious to signing.

Your arms were supposed to be my safety,

yet they only encompassed your prize,

I was a trophy that became a zombie,

that new nothing else,

but to follow you.

I Love you,

those words became,

my poison,

linking my weak heart to yours,

the heart that just wanted to take.

I will LOVE you forever,

but as long as I am alive,

I no longer need you, 

because of your attempts to keep me,

to isolate me,

the knock down my dreams,

to pull me from myself,

I know how great life is,

being alone.

Goodbye My love.
