Willingly

Willingly I gave you my heart and watched as you trample it into the ground. You said that all was fair in love and war, but I wasn’t out to do battle with any kindred soul. I gave my love willingly, you took it readily, and soon as my back was turned, you began to play around. You made our love a battleground with your cheating and lies. You think it didn’t notice and you wouldn’t get the blame. I can’t walk out on you and you know the reason why. You are that love of my lifetime and if you go, I’ll surely die. So willingly, I put up with all the misery you give to me. Hoping every day, you’ll see the error in your ways and you will stop hurting me just as willingly. 30 May 2008
