Peggy Dotson - Heartbroken

i remember when i first saw him
and how he quickly became a part of my world
i would sit alone thinking
how he felt about me being his girl

i really liked him from the start
but months later he broke my heart
i cried and cried and cried again
vowing that i will never again love a man

i lost all feelings and perception too
i got to the point i didn't know what to do
it was hard to move on because i had been hurt
my self-esteem was so low, i felt like dirt.

it felt as though a huge part of me was gone
now that he left me i felt so alone
there was nothing left for me to do
i even dreaded hearing the words ' i love you'
those words were a constant reminder to me
because at one time love was given to me

how could i be so blinded
not to realize he was a jerk
i close my mind to banish him from my thoughts
only to find out that pain and suffering was all it brought.

it agonize me the way it did
to have this happen to me while i'm young
i'm longing to forgive, but trying to forget
i still love the fool, this i will admit
