Letting Go

by RavishingEruption   Feb 10, 2008


I hoped you were different
But your just the same
My feelings were nothing
But pawns in your game

But no hard feelings
I know how you work
I've never met a
Guy that wasn't a jerk

I won't talk about you
Around my friends that like you too
I'll leave them alone
To think what they want about you

I'm letting go
To save myself the pain
I'm gonna wash you from my life
Like an ugly stain

And when I think of you
I'll smile inside
Thinking of the silly
Feelings I tried so hard to hide

I hope you will be happy
Even if I'm not
Depression eating me up
My heart beginning to rot

But I'll let you go
And move along
Trying to hold back the tears
When I hear a very sad song

So good-bye forever
I'll see you again?
Good-bye whatever
Not even a friend

IM LETTING GO

*DISCLAIMER: Since I wrote this poem, I have met several guys who weren't jerks....just to clarify things!*

    Wow, powerful stuff, especially love the ending. Glad to hear you've met some guys that aren't jerks since you wrote this =)

    One thing that I thought might make the flow better:

    But no hard feelings
    I know how you work
    I've never met a
    Guy that wasn't a jerk

    Maybe moving the word "guy" to the end of the third line. But that's just my way of reading =)

    Great poem, 5/5

    Hmm. i really like the beginning.. the flow in the beginning was really good. but towards the middle, it got a little rocky. Toward the end, the stronger vocabulary would make the poem better. :] But in any case, the poem was still great. an enjoyable read. still. 5/5.
