Was it all a lie? Tell me why.

Engulfed in love that blossomed, when I looked at you I knew

Nothing else now mattered, with unwavering conviction the belief

There was no one for me, but you

.

I held my breath and waited; until you finally confessed, I was all you’d ever wanted

The bond, the joy, the lust – a mutual obsession – infinite and insatiable

Engulfed in love that blossomed, when I looked at you I knew

.

You confided childhood trauma, I’ve never told a soul

All I wanted was to heal you, help you forget it all

There was no one for me, but you

.

We danced and made magic happen

We also made mistakes; mine trauma-based, coping their only intention

Engulfed in love that blossomed, when I looked at you I knew

.

We found ‘Forever Love’ on a Saturday, the same day that I lost you

Promising never to abandon me, then decapitated all contact, surely not forever

There was no one for me, but you

.

Never thought you capable – of callous, hateful, pain inflicted - void of all remorse

Torn apart as months became years; faded love formed a cold heart, that was once

Engulfed in love that blossomed, when I looked at you I knew

There was no one for me, but you
