You Said

You said you loved me

but the next day you ignored me, not once but three.

You said I was prettier than the stars in the sky

but the next day you made me feel ugly and cry.


You said I was yours

then you whispered that to another girl.

You swore my secrets were well kept

but I found out there was no secret left.


The way you kissed me made me feel special

until you told me I had no potential.

The way you held my hand under the dancing moonlight was cute

until you told me you didn’t enjoy it– and that was the truth.


You said my freckles were beautiful dots on my face

turns out your compliments were just a phase.

You said I was the only girl your heart belonged to

yet the next day your words belonged to someone new.
