LOVED YOU

I'm lost.
Can you help me?
I can't seem to find the memory,
where you ever cared.
Did I lose it?
Was it ever real?

I love you.
You never said it back.
That's okay.
I understand.

I do.
I really do.
I understand I'm not the one,
you want to say those words too.

For me,
It feels natural.
My heart twirls around,
and moves to my stomach,
giving me butterflies.

But I guess for you it's different.
A one sided love.
It hurts,
that I will admit.
But what hurts the most?
Is the fact that you're not sorry.

You knew I would love you.
And you also knew you wouldn't.
You knew way before.

Funny,
You could have saved me the heartache.
The bleeding in my heart.
The suffocation in my lungs.
And the tears that left my eyes.
You could have stopped it all.

You wanted someone to hurt like you.
But I am stronger.
I don't wallow in my sorrows.
I am not like you.
I'm sorry my love didn't help you.
I loved you.

But,
I no longer love you like before.
You're just a demon waiting in the dark.
