If You Had Been True Poem by Gerry Legister

I gave you all
My love and romance
But it was not enough
You walked away in malice
Treated me wretched
And watched me fall
You broke my heart
In a fit of burning rage
And made me felt worse than a delinquent
I try to fight standing upright
But emotions were too sharp
If you had been true and repented
We would never had parted
But our time has past
I have nothing more to gain
I am moving on
With regret and pain
In search of abundant life.
