You Had Said That You Loved Me So.
You had said that you loved me so
and never from my side would go,
professed a love undying and true,
you wanted only what I give to you.
No demands and no ties you said
just your love until you were dead.
I found these words sweet to hear
and so relished them upon my ear.
One day you got so upset with me,
for I did not carve our names in a tree,
it was in a place where you never go,
that you wanted it, how was I to know?
With angry works you struck out at me
revealing it just a grand illusion to be.
Your words like a stiff breeze did blow,
from the stage all the smoke did go.
Leaving only mirrors there upon the stage,
casting aside what seemed real in a rage.
I look now into the mirrors as I turn to leave,
just the reflection of a fool who did believe.
I guess another painful lesson learned,
once more I had faith and again burned.
Why do I fool myself, believe what I see?
There is no such thing as love, not for me.
