You've told me that you loved me

But I've heard it all before

I've been through the pain of it

And I’m not listening anymore


You swore that you were different

Than all the other guys

Said for me to trust you

Just look you in the eyes


But I was still afraid

That you would break my heart

And make me fall for you

Then tear it all apart


You said you'd never leave me

Through good times and bad

Even when I was unsure

About all the love we have


I thought about what you said

For many sleepless nights

I prayed to God above

Hoping you were right


Then one day I realized

Even if it could mean pain

You couldn't get the rainbow

Without a little rain


So I let myself fall for you

Slowly, taking time

Until one day I knew

That you would always be mine


Patiently you waited

Until I was convinced

That you were my only love

And have been ever since


So now, I’m ready to say

What I was afraid to say before

That baby, you were right

I couldn't love you more

Hey libbym,

Welcome to piptalk! I hope you like the site as much as I have...

Like the other person who posted said awesome first post!

I loved this a lot, I was thinking you were going to say something different but you suprised me! I loved the twist in this, how you allowed yourself to trust. This poem had an amazing message in it...

Thanks for sharing!

"I pray thee, O God, that I
may be beautiful within."
