How I loved her so:
A flimsy friendship
Solidified inseparable
Upon five words
Story continues below advertisement
How I loved her so:
Her hair captured fire,
Her skin like porcelain,
Her eyes piercingly soft
How I loved her so:
School dances spent together
Halloween’s planned eternal
But the fairytale was fleeting
How she hurt me so:
Chaining me up to her “requests,”
Leaving but a cent to eat if I obeyed
And five words that kept me shackled
How she hurt me so:
Replacing me without a word,
Riding on relationship
Highs of convenience
How she hurt me so:
Lost in a maze of blame,
Crucified in my own mind
For how I could love her so.
