I Didn't Know
I Didn’t Know
By: Aaliyah Price
I didn't know that he would be the guy that I'd fall in love with
I never imagined that out of my seventeen years
That he would be the one to cause most of my tears
I never imagined that for him being my first love
That he would be the one to take advantage of my good heart
I didn’t know how quickly I would fall apart
I wish I had known how he really felt
All the times I spent with him my heart would melt
All the laughs and smiles we shared
Realizing a person can be a home
Feeling like he really cared
I didn’t know that his hugs would mean more to me than gold
I wish God would have warned me of what all would unfold
I didn’t know that I’d stay up nights for nothing
Waiting for a call, a text, waiting for something
I didn’t know that he would keep pushing me away
When all I really wanted was for him to stay
I wish he was still in my life
Though I’m learning to miss him less everyday
Every time I hear his name
It is really never the same

From personal experience this poem is about how I didn't know how a guy who I truly loved could hurt me so much.
