Hearts are broken,
souls are shattered,
You caused this by hurting them
They are lubrigous and mournful
I have tried to give them hopes, dreams, even love,
but they are spiritless
they are broken and frightened
All because of you
How could you abandoned them
how could you?
explain this to me, you fake
You pretend to love them, but then you go and forsake them
How could you?
I want to know why?
After you told them you loved them
How could you?

I was inspired to write this when my mom gave me up for adoption. I hope that people realize that when you pretend to love someone and then you give them up, it hurts and makes that person ache
