I thought someone loved me but she forgot To tell me how trust had led me astray Or mention how faithfulness steered me wrong
What I had mistaken for love was not And she let me dream a little too long She played me for a sucker all the way
So to hell with love and to hell with her To hell with lovely dreams which never were The longer I live the clearer I see The world is all a lie to her to me To everyone that we are all deceived Looking for lovely dreams to be believed To be treasured and to be tortured by We die by our dreams as we live a lie
She never loved me nor did she explain How my wholehearted love had been misplaced And now I can never find it again
My dream dried to dust and I feel disgraced To have been ensnared by this world of lies Where hate only lives and love only dies
Soulful outpouring of anger and lost pride, love will never desert you Steve, a lover may but you will always find new love in the world you write in which also is the world you live in. We do not give up, our hearts will not allow it, the search is our goal not the ultimate results.
You've written so much from this near plight STeve, this unfortunate love that never begun. Have you ever thought, that was the reason this happen to you in the 1st place. To help you write from that knowing place you knew and felt so well! IN the heart, gut and mind. Where your true feelings are divine! YOUr writings have taken many readers to far away places, in your heart! Many books wouldn't of gotten this far, if she had not entered your heart! so deeply! Great poem above again STeve! Warmly, *She*oxo
*You learned much from that sad experience *

Where hate only lives and love only dies ... OH I can too relate to this poetry. This is full of emotions well expressed many can relate and you do it so well. Thank you for sharing Peace, Joselyn
OMG I know the feelings you are going through...knowing everything I was told the biggest lie ever...here is part of my poem on that feeling!!
I almost overcame the fear of tomorrow
Appreciating the sacrifices made
Now caught between the ocean
And the vision from afar
I came upon the contest of my heart
Knowing the distance between us so very wide
I am moving in this darkness
On this dark cloud of remembering
Emotions way too intense to inspire happy verse
This poem the contest of loving thoughts
Became my biggest nightmare
Remembering now…everything I was told
The biggest lie ever…just remember this
Life crushed my heart
And stole my soul
