I told you I loved you,
I told you it was true,
It was something I did,
Why'd I do?

I told you I loved you with all my heart,
It just made things worse and fall apart.
Every thing's off balance, not where it should be,
This isn't right, this isn't me.

I told you I loved you,
I told you it was true,
But all I did was lie to you.

The author's comments:
I wrote this in seventh grade. It was about this boy who really liked me and I had a thing for him. It wasn't very strong but he was very depressed. There were moments I thought I loved him, so I said what I felt. Then later on of course I realized it wasn't real. This poem was written about him. Although he has never actually seen it.
