Because I Loved...

November 7, 2017

My mind, body, and soul... you had it all. 

Broken, torn apart, and in denial

it's all your fault,

because I loved.

I didn't see it coming but who could? 

Love is full of chances, 

but not for me, because I gave you all of mine. 

 

"I didn't mean to" "She meant nothing to me" "But baby, I love you"

Tell me "baby" why did you have to lie? 

The bruises you left on my heart, 

I am forever stained,

all because I loved.

 

Because I loved you, 

I lost my self, 

I forgot my worth, 

and because of love...

because of YOU...

I don't know what the word "Love" means anymore. 

BECAUSE.

I. 

LOVED.
