Love Poem: Why

Why

Why did you say you loved me?
Why did you say you cared?;
Why did you tear my heart into?
With just one little stare.

Why did I have to love you?
Why did I have to care?;
When all you did was took my heart,
And threw it everywhere.

You said you really loved me,
That you'd always be there;
Yet where you once had sat,
Is only an empty chair.

Why did you say you loved me?
Why did you say you cared?;
Why did I have to love you?
Why did I have to care?;
Now all I'm left with is this,
Old empty chair.
