You said I was the only one
the only one you ever loved
the only one you ever cared for
but the truth is I was the only
one who ever loved you

I was the only one
who opened my heart
and let you inside of me
and in the end I was
the only one who fell apart

You never really felt for me
you used me
lied and tried to trick
me
well I guess you did do that

But I've realized what you've done
and your game is over
because you're not the only one
who's been playing

The 3rd stanza didn't sit well though. Dunno why- Just didn't like it. Other than that though I enjoyed it. Thanks for the read   Keep posting.

Oh man!! If any there is a piece to connect with on the topic of relationships, THIS is IT! One guy, one act of stupidity...You described what you were feeling well.
Thanks for sharing this, Trina.

I like how you reversed the whole poem in the end. It shows the pain and I guess thats what counts for you right?? Keep it coming. /Nick/

Hehe...I've been there before! I just got out of a relationship where the guy had been cheating on me, but what he doesn't know is I cheated on him too, and outta that, I gots a guy that really cares, and wants to be with me.

Thank you everyone for reading my poem. I must say I personally don't agree with cheating , I mean I feel hey if someone is cheating on me I'm not going to go out and cheat on them I'm just going to break up with them and find somebody better. I feel it's a waste of my time to stay with someone and then play the same old dirty game they playing. I wrote the poem just because I wanted something a little different besides the usual break up poem.Once again I thank you all for reading.

Take care,

Trina

I thought it was well done. I agree with your views on cheating. Nicely said in your reply above.
Anyhow, nice poem.

Anyone who does agree with cheating has their morals a little mixed up..
Nicely done, Trina.  I really enjoyed this... very emotional.  Good work.

As with so many other poems in this forum, I can relate to this one.  I've been in that boat before, except I didn't play the game.  I was always true to my partners.  Sorry, didn't mean to get personal.  Very good write.  Keep it up.
