I thought I loved you
Forever hand in hand
Endless, meaningless conversations lead to
Unexaggerated joy, happiness, ecstasy
Captivated by your bright blue eyes

I thought you loved me
Hours on the phone
Two A.M. texts
Late nights together
My longest drives home

I thought I loved you
Water, ink smears decorate my paper
Formerly unobtainable emotions, shattered
Fear, standing lost in space and time
Sheltering my heart for none to find

I thought you loved me
Hiding behind empty words, expressionless faces
Internal, superficial lacerations fade to scars
Constant debate between life and death
The latter, evermore tempting

I thought I loved you
Your lips subtlely purse into a smile
Optimistic curiosity unlocks my heart
Again entranced by your sweet voice
I do still love you

I thought you loved me
Make you laugh on bitterest of days
Warm touch brightens frigid nights
Hope
Maybe you still love me
