You Poem by Hope Elizabeth

You said you would protect me
You told me you would guide me
You hurt me by lying to me
And now I’m crying
Because you disrespected me

You made me laugh
You encouraged me to dream
Interceding on my behalf
You raised my self-esteem

You said you loved me
So why did you leave me?
Surely it couldn't be all my fault
You claimed that we grew apart

I hope you find someone
Who you will do right by
And I hope you will never deny her
The opportunities you failed to give me
