Lust NOT Love
I don’t wanna be known
as the girl for a one night stand,
and my emotions have shown
that was never my plan.
I can not believe
all the sacrifices I made,
yet you still wanted to leave
when I wish you would've stayed.
I begged and pleaded
hoping you would stay,
but all you needed
was time to get away.
I tried to remain strong
like nothing ever happened,
but all along
I thought the pain would never end.
The pain
was eating me alive,
but I couldn't maintain
my willingness to thrive.
I was tired
of giving it my all,
that’s when I was inspired
to make that call.
“ If you wanna quit
I can quit too,
but that’s it
I’m never coming back to you.”
That’s when I realized
it was not my fault,
and with all your lies
you’d soon get caught.
All you ever wanted
was the pleasure,
and after you taunted
I became your treasure.
I thought you were the one
so I gave you everything,
but now that the damage is done
I realize you are nothing
What we had was Lust
that’s nothing to be proud of,
and it must
NOT be mistake for Love.
