Life often makes you wonder how something that seemed so incredible, something that started so well, could end so badly. Sometimes this is the case with love. The once rosy and quaint dream of “Happily Ever After” fades into the night, like so many others. When love is gone, rejection can cause years of misery, emotional damage, and suffering if allowed. A good poem can help you overcome that.
Honestly, did you ever really love me?
My heart would like to believe
Or were you just faking it the whole time!
I had been patiently waiting for love,
But it never seemed to happen
It just kept passing me by
Always looking…
then i saw you
Your smile bewitched me
With your little boy’s face I loved you
your hazel eyes entered me
Then I knew that love had finally arrived…
You ran into my life
Blowing up like a summer storm
asking for my heart,
I gladly gave it to you.
I remember how you were so simplistic
the way you promised
to love me always,
Promising that nothing would separate us
Nonsense words, that’s all they were
Intangible as the wind
Lost forever in the silence of the night…
Well, I must say you were convincing…
I believed every word you said…
My soul became an anchor
Sunken by your fleeting love…
I felt my heart beat fast against your chest
As you held me in the warmth of your embrace.
The soft musky scent of your masculine body holding me tight.
The ecstasy of your endearing kisses
Whispering secrets and unforgettable moments…
immersing you with my love
I let myself get lost inside of you
Without realizing it at the time
that I was just a whim,
One more toy for your collection….
In silence you left me alone again,
Taking my heart and soul like loose change,
Spent and soon forgotten,
As you sped alone to the next resort,
Washing up on a lonely beach.
The winds have since died, all is still except my pain.
I have built sand castles as a testimony of my sorrows
Waiting for the waves, gone still as the breeze.
They no longer hug my shores or sing to me.
Will they ever come back to wash away my sorrows?
How could I know that love would be as fickle as the wind?
Flying as fast as it came
I desperately tried to hold on to him, but who
Can you hold on to something that was never really there?
You were a mirage that only left a terrible chill and an empty void…
My only chance was gone, and once wasted,
It happens to you forever…
And that’s the cruel reality of life,
My heart still aches with loneliness, it still hurts to cry.
Yesterday is just another word for memories
And for me yesterday is what once existed between us,
Memories that I now know will never come back.
But then, what use are memories?
When are they not worth holding on to?
I’m afraid of falling in love again
I fear the sadness, the pain of rejection,
I fear to see dreams once again vanish into thin air…
That I should have to wait again,
For a chance at love that may never return…
But enough, enough
I can’t go on like this, I shouldn’t have to.
No one should suffer at the hands of another’s whims.
I refuse to suffer your memories anymore…..
