Courting, kisses, dates
Memories made
All laid to waste..
Just randomly one day.

An asset.. to you, that's what I was
And it just hurts because
There's so much I wasn't, but wanted to be.
To you.. for you, so there could be a you and me.

You were perfect, the one of my dreams.
I thought there was a reciprocity.
You made me feel..you filled me times on end.
I loved you, with every single part of my being.

I should've listened.
I ignored everything,
Everyone..
Thinking that maybe if any of that was the case, you could change for me.

Foolish.. I know I was.

But why?

I was so broken, yearning for someone to fix me.

Maybe for you.. that was just the opportunity. And—-

You lied.. used me.
Preyed on, and probably even prayed for my adornment to bring you such prosperity.
You took everything.
Everything,

And right now.. as I write this note to you,
I hope you feel guilty
Considering,
Your "love" killed me.
