Why

This feeling I have inside
Just won't go away
I try to take my mind off it
But I think it's here to stay

In the beginning it was butterflies
They fluttered constantly
Now it's a feeling of sickness
How could you do this to me

I thought you'd be there to catch me
And instead you let me fall
As soon as I hit the ground
There was nothing left at all

My happy heart had shattered
I felt like I could die
You promised to keep it safe
So now I ask you why

Why would you do this to me
Why would you break my heart
Maybe I'm just not good enough
I think I'm falling apart

I thought that I could be strong
But I can't get it off my mind
If you want me back
It's gonna take some time

I want to just forgive you
And tell you the fight is over
But I can't help but think
That you're still deeply in love with her

I know it hurts when you feel betrayed, when you find that the love you had has ended because the one you love has found someone else. But we all have to move on. There are a million fish in the sea and if he did that to you he's just a small fry in lifes ocean. Great poem dear.

Poetry is not a turning loose of emotion, but an escape from emotion.

T. S. Eliot (1888-1965) American-English poet and playwright.
