You Called It Love

You called it love

I don't think it was

But maybe I am wrong

Maybe I was just overreacting

To the games you played

To the names you sprayed

Like the bullets from a gun

Maybe when I walked away

I should have stayed

Because, maybe,

I got all that I deserved

Perhaps you were

The best I'd ever get

I know now that

Without you I am nothing

Yet

Here I am surviving

Thriving

It is you who longingly looks

Into your mirror

Crying out your wish

Where I am still there

By your side

Completing your life.

A warm heart to hold you tight

Making you feel right

But that's not reality

So I guess

I'll just keep going my way

And you can stay

Stuck within your fantasy

The one where

Everything was perfect

And you couldn't do any wrong

I am tired of that old song

Swallow your own poison

Goodbye my love

Goodbye.
