But Baby

Another poem I wrote after the break-up. Same guy.

Please tell me that you love me
One more time

Look me in the eye
Lie like you always do

You can tell me
But baby you've never shown me

It's all I can do not to cry
Just thinking of how things were

It's too late now
And I don't know why

I keep telling myself I'm right
Letting you go is just life

But I want you...
I love you

I just can't take you back
Not after what you've done

I'll forgive you
And I'll miss you

But baby I've taken all I can take
My heart can't break anymore
