Poetry: I thought I could love you

by Kris Vaassen

Created on: August 04, 2011   Last Updated: December 27, 2011

You know, I really thought
I could love you and show you
love in reality but yet it was only
superficial cause I didn't want to
hurt your feelings anymore than you
had been hurt in your life by those
you love and cherish so much
I thought I could make myself
love you and make it look like
we were happy and in love
I don't think anyone was fooled
by my trying to love you
It was a sincere effort
on my part but really,
I was only stringing you along
I don't love you and I can't love you
I am sorry to break this news to you
because you have been hurt so much
I can't guard you any longer
I have be truthful
because some day it will surface
anyway...you will always be my friend
but I can't love you in anyway other than that
