DarkPoetry -|- Methos -|- The morality you stole from me...

The morality you stole from me...

Taken love from my heart
stolen my offerings of truth
and returned lies of hellish nature
bringing sleepless nights,
and forgotten dreams
to my simple life....

I wanted to believe
as I watched my world crumble
in my hands...
I wanted to understand
as I saw you with him hand in hand
though you pledged to me...

I haven't loved in years
and now the blackness within
grows darker and the peices of
my heart drift further
and further apart...

I needed to know
why you gave him all that
was mine...
I needed to leave
though i stayed and tried
to forget...

I wanted to believe
that you were everything
though you were not...
I wanted to understand
why your love was so cheap
like a whore...

I wanted to believe
as I fell to my knees
a broken man
with nothing left
but shattered dreams
and a hatred I bear...

Commitment it seems
is no longer what
it once was
merely a dream
I've yet to awaken from...

"i wanted to believe, as i fell to my knees".... this is vicious with truth, i love it but it almost hurts to love it for the underlying sameness i've experienced- all within it that i understand... and everything i dont... sue

Commitment is not just a dream, though it seems that way. There are still a few of us that believe in the sacred nature of a relationship. And not lying or cheating. Very well written, Arik. My heart cries for you. *hugs*

love hurts, love is the cause of my greatest hate, but like nell said, love would be meaningless without hurt.~~~Grave

Your story was so well conveyed, it strikes discord because I once crossed this path. Shame how a few can ruin love for many. +T.P.U+

nicely written, someones once asked me whats the point of trying again to look for love because it hurts so much, and the answer is that without the hurt the happiness would mean nothing
