My heart use to flutter at your name
My thoughts shut down with in my brain
I forgot how to breathe
And I forgot my aim
But that was then
And this is now
And I'm standing up to tell you how
Everything changed in one bow
How your words
Immature and foolish
Careless and brutish
Stupid and ruthless
Relieved me of that feeling
Reduced my care to friend
Left you to pretend
That I didn't lend
My heart to you
That you didn't treat it like an object
And place it where you knew
It would be critiqued by all who viewed
And all of this
Because you didn't want me
You wanted a title to be
Your Special Lady

PoetryThings I never had the courage to say aloud but wrote down instead, hoping that one day another soul like myself would come across it; hoping that someday someone could relate and be able to say 'I am not alone.' ♡Poetry♡ (Cover wasn't drawn by me)
