The lie i came to love

by XxFallenxFromxGracexX   Aug 19, 2008


[This poem is about my recent break up, it sucked and it still hurts...and to make things worse, we had been best friends for liek a yearbefore we started going out, and yea he hurt me pretty bad, and now were no were near as close as we were...i hope u like the poem its not great, but i had to get it off my chest]

You looked contently at me,
'My beautiful girl,' you said
Love in your eyes I could see
As you lay next to me in bed

'We survived a whole four weeks'
'But we'll last so much longer'
You bent and kissed my cheeks
You made my heart feel stronger

Each subtle touch, skin upon skin,
Each longing stare;
Would make my world begin to spin
All it took was for you to be there

Now I glance upon your handsome face,
The one Ive grown so used to
And the feelings I cannot seem to erase
Leave me aching for you

How could something so right,
Turn out so wrong?
How could a love so bright,
Have been a lie all along?

    This is a touching heart felt piece, but tell yourself that, you two were not made for each other. Don't force your destiny. With time, and when you came upon the right person, you will see that memories of her almost erase from your memory. Very good piece, kel.

    This poem is beautiful. It hurts so much only because it evokes so much emotion out of me, but it is so eloquent yet simple at the same time. I really love how the last stanza wraps it up so well. I encourage everyone who goes through a break up to delve into poetry. I hope you have found happiness now, and I know this is an old poem but it's a truly great write, and the beautiful thing about our poetry and our words is they act in the present just as well as the day we wrote them up. I love it. Great job.
