I Once Thought


I once thought we had a love that would last.
How wrong was I to think such a thing!
For it was never love that we once shared.
Love is a feeling that you know nothing about!
Lust and only lust is what you will ever know!
Nothing more and nothing less, just pure
lust is what you will ever know!
I once thought you knew how to love and
to be loved in return, what a fool was
I to ever believe you could possibly
know the true meaning of love...
What made me believe in a man like you?
How could a man like you ever know just
how wonderful and beautiful love could ever be...
For it's never love but just lust for you.
It's just so sad that you will never know
what love could have brought into your empty life!
Love is an emotion that's just too strong
for you to ever know what it's really all about!
Love is also an emotion that's just too hard for you
to ever be able to truly believe and deal with!
For each and every time love starts to get a little
tough for you to deal with, you always find some
kind of lame excuse to end the whole relationship!
Why don't you just face the truth, you're just too
scared to deal with love and with all that love comes with.
Instead you act like a scared child not knowing
how to handle or deal with love and all that it brings!
So what do you do instead?  You just walk away and
act as if it was never a part of your thing!
But deep inside I know the truth!  For I know
you hate yourself for being a fool!
A fool who will never be able to realize
just how much love really means to you!
So just go on being the fool!  Keep on with
your denial because it's not working!
For I know just how much you truly need to feel loved!
You're just a fool and you will always be a fool!
I tried my best, but my best just wasn't good
enough, so keep pretending that you know
what you're doing when it comes to love!
Maybe that's the reason why you're still
living all by yourself!
