He Didnt Love Me

By T

He didn’t love me.

He didn’t…

He didn’t even like me.

I was nothing but easy.

A pawn in his game,

A tool to wield when it suited him,

A hollow laugh in his mouth,

The joke he told behind my back,

Wrapped in the hypocrisy of sweet words,

Empty promises dripping like poison.

He used me,

Twisted my trust like a thread,

Pulled tight to strangle,

Then laughed as I choked on the silence,

A mirror cracked by his betrayal…

Reflections of lies I swallowed whole.

He didn’t love me.

He didn’t…

He only wanted what was easiest,

Convenience over care,

Manipulation dressed as affection,

Cold hands cloaked in warm deceit.

I was the joke,

The punchline nobody heard,

The betrayal burning under my skin,

And still, I loved.

Even when he never loved me back.
