A Love That's True

by Bobbie J. Brown - Scorpio

I gave my heart too easily
to you, a sincere and honest fool.
You took it all away from me
so fast, it was another you did choose.
I wanted you to only love ME
forever, I thought we had it all.
You tried so hard to make me believe
the truth, your friend was my only call.
Will I ever know the answer
to why, why I couldn't make you love?
My love was stronger than hers
could ever be, why wasn't I enough?
Please don't say I never meant a thing
to you, without you I'd have given up.
You helped me find reasons for living
each day, as well as what I'm made of.
That explains why my anger has disappeared
so quickly, for you I have no hate.
It's understanding of why you're not here
with me, that makes me happy today.
Moments and words can't be forgotten
in time, I've loved you for too long.
All the laughs and smiles that you sent
my way, in memory they still go on.
The tears that fell from my eyes
have gone, I need to let you go.
I can't keep you as part of my life
anymore, for her your love shows.
There is a special place for you
inside me, a place that can't be touched.
So when you need a love that's true
and strong, come to me I have so much.
