Cruel Love

by Paul Ogunkoya
(London, United Kingdom)

Love, why are you so cruel,
why have you hurt me,
why have you left me,
why have you abandoned me.

Love, how could you betray me,
how could you turn your back on me,
how could you deceive me,
how could you cheat on me.

Love, I thought we had a good thing,
I thought you would be there through thick and thin,
but you tossed me away like rubbish in the bin,
and left me like a saint leaves sin.

Love, I thought we would be together forever,
I thought we would grow old together,
and always be there for one another.

Are you really love?
I thought love was faithful,
Are you really love?
I thought love was kind,
Are you really Love?
I thought love never fails.

Maybe you were never true love, yours was a false love, yours was a Cruel Love.
