Believed It

alivia

why promise something so dear?

and pretend that you'll always be here

why did I believe it?

did you see it was just too easy...

because you knew I was in love

my feelings I allowed you to see

but to you it was all a

scheme.

to see if you could take my virginity.

i remember that night so clear and vividly 

you said "Trust me,

I'll never leave."

and I lay there smiling, like a fool.

Because I believed it...

    WELCOME AGF ~ Thanks for a very poignant and challenging first poem. Yes it is a LOVE poem ~ but the subject is Betrayed Love ! Despite the subject of betrayal the poem is beautifully constructed and replete with rhyme an rhythm. As I've grown older I have learned just how precious a females "virginity" is and I am ashamed of Men who treat it lightly. It's "surrender" is not only physiological but also psychological which make rape such a horrendous crime. The same is true (as your poem suggests) of females who are tricked into surrendering their "V" by insincere promises of eternal love. Your poem is a warning to all Ladies to cherish their "V" and to all Men to respect it ! Thanks for caring and sharing ~ Yours BRIAN.

      That's what poetry is about! Pouring out your pain into words written because we don't have the strength to speak'em.. Nicely written! Remember, you're not a fool for believing and trusting someone you love. They're the fool for destroying a love so pure!

            I just want to touch my readers with emotional poems because in reality we've all been down due to love and people in this generation won't talk about it.
