Its Not You Its Me

I loved you too much
The fault was entirely my own
You have no guilt to blame
You were only ever yourself
At least that is what I hope
That you did not play me
In some act a role only to deceive
So you may extract my emotion
To what ends that could serve
No forget that paranoid thought
Remember how I thought of you
Beautiful, fair and loving
Similar to others if argued
But to me always special
Perhaps I loved you too much
And you being you were honest
In feeling no feelings for me
I just wished you had said
As much as it would have hurt
I could have stopped loving you
Or at least began the process
Of trying to forget you
