Crushed

You and I lived on the same earth

I was the innocent and you were the cursed

Nevertheless, a crush began

Only one knowing, over two years on end

I was invisible, a shadow

I was nothing more

You were the light

You held open the door

 

But I realized you were lying

You didn't open it

For me, never

 

You and I lived on the same earth

You were the bastard, and I was cursed

Nevertheless, the crush has died

Only one knowing, I said goodbye

I was invisible, a ghost

You didn't notice

You were nothing but a hoax

 

You opened that door

To that bitch who once was a best friend

Slammed it behind me

I knew you didn't care

 

How long has it been?

How long have you been pretending?

You gave me a reason to love you

Thinking our love was never ending

Nevertheless, I knew it would happen

You found a new girl right away

And I burst out laughing

Because I lost trust in you and her

 

Behind my back, you were with her

And I had to live with it

That my now ex-boyfriend and ex-best friend

Are dating and I'm here being betrayed

By others who have your backs

And not mine

Because I don't deserve it

 

So good luck on your relationship;

 I hope you absolutely crush her heart

Like you did to mine

Because karma will get to you

And I'll laugh and laugh

At your faces when that happens

You and I lived on the same earth

I was the innocent

you were the cursed

Nevertheless,

a crush began

Only one knowing,

over two years on end

I was invisible,.

a shadow

I was nothing

Nothing more

You were the light

You held open the door



But I realized you

(You) were lying

You didn't open it

For me,

never.... Ever



You and I lived on the same earth

You were....

the bastard,

and I was cursed

Nevertheless,

the crush has died

Only one knowing,

I said goodbye

I was invisible,
.
a ghost

You didn't notice

You were nothing

Nothing but a hoax



You opened that door

To that bitch

who once was a best friend

Slammed it behind me

( behind out future)

I knew you didn't care



How long has it been?

How long?

have you been pretending?

You gave me a reason

( a reason) to love you

Thinking our love was never ending

Nevertheless,

I knew it would happen

( it has happened)

You found a new girl right away

And I burst out laughing

Because

I lost trust in you

I lost trust in her



Behind my back,

you were with her

And I had to live with it

That my now

ex-boyfriend and ex-best friend

Are dating

and I'm here

being betrayed

By others who have your backs

not mine

Because I don't deserve it



So good luck on your relationship;

I hope you

absolutely

crush

her heart

Like you did to mine

Because karma will get to you

And I'll laugh

and laugh

At your faces

when that happens

Love this poem... Very well written... Powerful drama..... Hope u dont mind a view from anothers perspective...... But break up the poem...... Shorter lines..... Monosyllabic...... Creates greater emotion... Devastation.... Ill send u example.... But well written poem...
