Why We Will Never Be

by Murdoch   Jun 29, 2008


How can you say I didn't try?
I had no chance. Why do you lie?

I ask you now to tell me why.
You broke my heart; no second try.

I gave you everything I could.
I gave the effort. Understood?

It was you who didn't try.
So stop and think before you lie.

I took a slow and steady pace.
You threw it all back in my face.

Because you didn't feel the same.
I don't know why we played this game...

When all I wanted was your heart,
You chose to take mine, and depart.

You love another more than me,
And that's why we will never be.

    I truly enjoyed reading this poem. the rhythm was so clear and i would say natural. my fav line is:

    I took a slow and steady pace.
    You threw it all back in my face.

    short question add something special to the poem, make it more emotonal:
    like here:
    I had no chance. Why do you lie?
    and here:
    I gave the effort. Understood?

    the way you express your emotions is mwhat i like about this poem. there is no hysterics, it seems quite smooth, but still so sincere and heart-felt!
    good job,
    5/5
