You Never Loved Me

I sat in silence, breath held tight

Praying love would make it right

I whispered peace—you answered with storms

But love like that should never be the norm

You said you cared—so where was the care?

When silence screamed and I gasped for air

If hurting me didn’t shake your soul

Then baby, your love was always cold

If my pain didn’t move you, you never loved me

If my tears didn’t burn through your pride

Then you were never on my side

I asked for peace—you gave me storms

Used my love, then left me worn

If my suffering meant nothing to you

Then your heart was never true

You spoke of love, then chose the fight

Gave me chaos time after time

If seeing me in pain felt fine

Then your heart was never mine

If my pain didn’t move you, you never loved me

If my tears didn’t burn through your pride

Then you were never on my side

I asked for peace—you gave me storms

Used my love, then left me worn

If my suffering meant nothing to you

Then your heart was never true

I won’t beg for a heart so blind

Real love sees, real love tries

You said love—but now I see—

You only took what you needed from me

If my pain didn’t break your soul

Then you never loved me

I begged for peace—you gave me war

So tell me, what were you loving me for?

I don’t need your toxic love

I’ve had enough, I’m rising above

All I want now is something true—

Real love, the kind I never got from you

Why apologize if nothing will change?

I’ve seen this cycle—I know how it ends

I don’t need your “sorry,” don’t need the spin

I need peace—and you don’t fit in
