Confused Poem by James Casey

Confused

I can't explain, how I feel.
I loved her, and she was real.

Was it worse, than never having met?
I'm not sure, I've still a lot of pain here yet

How much of her, was really there?
Rejecting the ring as though she didn't care

Are we really beyond repair?
All I know, it's not fair.

First my mother, left me all alone
Now my love has, taken the same tone

I remember how my love had touched you,
Your saying no, has torn me in two

So I sit here, alone and confused.
What we had, is now defused.

Am I simply to scratch my head.
Wide awake, yet somehow dead

I am lost and so confused, what am I supposed to do?
If I can no longer say that ' I still love you '
