My Mistake

                    
 
I poured my heart till it emptied.
Before you, never feeling tempted.
Professing my love upon dead ear,
to the one that I feel so near.
You who would take the fruits of    
 my love and give them to another
one.
Using my heart against me, as I
struggle to set myself free.
For loving you has no pleasure,
in it there is no hidden treasure.
I look into those lovely eyes
and feel no warmth there.
Behind your beautiful smile,
no want to give or share,
There is an emptiness, a void
where your heart should be.
I must get away because  it
is slowly killing me.
I yearn to be loved by you
but that you will never do.
So I must say goodbye
to my dream of you and I.
