All I got was you

All i got was you... 

You want me to write you a love

 poem when you never read any 

 in the past, well here it is "One

 time long ago I thought that I

 fell in love with you, the end",  just

 like this piece of poetry it did not

 last long, unfortunately we did,

why? because I believed in that

poem and tried everything I could

but I never would feel the way you

are supposed too in a love poem, I

 gave all that I had and then some

I loved until it the pain was so

unbearable that all I had was 

numb I cried so many tears that

none will fall again, my heart

broke so many times it will never

 beat again, i have fallen so deep

into to darkness that light now
hurts my eyes and i will feel

nothing for anyone until I die, love

to me is nothing more then a

fairy tale full of lies a nightmare

 filled with demons that fill my

days and nights, you have shown

me that what love is a poison for

your soul well you can it have back

you can have it all, for roses are 

red like the blood I bleed from all 

of wounds that cut me deep violets
are blue that is all I feel because
of you what else can I say? Poets
have muses all i got was you...
