He Used to Love Me [Poem]



Hello there. ..
As I told you from time to time I will posting some of my writings :)
So here is a new one by the name " He Used to Love Me "

I wrote this last month while I was on my trip in India .. a situation happened where I read this line " he used to love me " and it inspired me to write this piece :)
Please enjoy and don't forget, your feedback is really helpful :)


Isn’t life funny?
What was once my yesterday, my history, my one and only distinguishable happy memory
Shattered right before my eyes in few words: “He USED to love me “
Clearly filled with emotions, these words were replied back
Full of guilt, hurt, betrayal, anger, and sadness... yet full of passion
Few years ago, I did realize what true love meant...
That day I realized I would never be able to set myself free
But today, I finally broke through
A hunch took me back few years ago,
Say NO and so I did
Influenced by my brain’s own doubts and reason
I backed off from what I believed true love to be
I loved? Yes I did…
I doubted? I did
I still doubt? Yes … though he is no longer here
But I know, between the lines of this caring treatment, there is a lie dying to swim back to the surface..
I guess luck is on my side, two hits in a row and next will be a homerun
I never trusted people..
Now I can never trust people
I can no longer be surprised with whatever life throws at me ..
What happened here was a perfect masterpiece
I didn’t know and she still doesn’t know
Under the same roof, we were sharing the same lie just with different characters .. yet the same villain; the same hero
He was there and he is still there toying with another ..
The question is .. is it also a lie?
Her existence .. his issue .. his life?
I am starting to doubt everything .. I just cannot look without questioning
Are you the one I long knew? Or are you just another character you wrote?
Having to be hit with reality over and over again in such time
I am not sure if accepting it the way it is will help the scars fade away
Because apparently they will not
Being viewed as the corrupted piece for a long time .. I am starting to wonder if I should actually become one
Since everyone is already corrupted
Her and her and her
All had their chances over and over again .. but I sat back in fear
Because I thought I will become corrupted ..
And I wanted to stay pure ..
Seems like .. the word pure its self is corrupted
She said: “ There was no other girl around him”
But there I was believing it was only me ..
But there she was and probably others
            Yet I question .. do I have the right to be angry?
In a sense I don’t know the truth and I can’t ask for the truth
He didn’t lie and I never asked
            But do I feel betrayed? Yes I do
            He has taken her heart along with mine and broke it
            I have every right ..
