love and loss

Many times I have loved
Many times I have lost
I’ve had my heart broken
Disregarded and tossed

But this time was different
It was supposed to be
I loved you so hard
You still didn’t see me

See you can’t love someone
Into loving you too
That’s not how love works
It’s sad but it’s true

When someone’s not ready
You can’t make them see
What you have to offer
Or that it’s meant to be

Don’t go down that road
Or you’ll end up like me
With your heart so shattered
You’ll fall to your knees

I gave you my heart
It was all in your hands
But you didn’t want it
I just don’t understand

So why did you come here
So far away from home
Just to love me and leave me
Broken and alone

You took me for granted
Why couldn’t you stay?
This love’s once in a lifetime
And you threw it away

But you had your demons
I knew nothing about
So you pushed me away
And you shut me out

See none of it matters
Or changes the fact
That I love you completely
But you don’t love me back
