You never said you loved me
The words never formed in your voice
But each night you held me tightly
I knew I was your choice

You never said you loved me
But you touched me tender everywhere
And the times that I felt most happy
Were those times you and I share

You never said you loved me
However the gifts you brought were unique
And the message of how well you knew me
Were louder than words you could speak

You never said that you loved me
But you kissed me with your eyes closed
You said you wanted me forever
I knew then it was me you had chose

You never said you loved me
But you cheated on her to be with me
So why is it now you are here
Saying you never loved me?


Let my words fall first upon deaf ears before a closed mind...

Woah.  Those last two lines are poignant and powerful.  They can even be taken in two ways, though my suspicion is that it slants in the direction whose answer you'd rather not know...  Powerful details.

I'm back to getting my subject matter from Lifetime movies for women...it makes such intense and fun writing!
