Last Thing I Write

by Hopelessly Devoted to You   Apr 17, 2011


This may just be the last thing I ever write,

for I must rebuild and it will take some time,

I hate to say it, but you're "that guy" that broke me,

broke my guard to see my secrets that were showing,

you stepped into my safe house, that what's deep within,

then pulled out a grenade and then pulled the pin,

leaving everything abolished and me to cry,

feeling vulnerable with no place left to hide,

and now I'm overcome with all this fear,

afraid to trust everyone else that's near,

so this may just be the last thing I ever write,

for I fear I'm exposing what I have left inside,

and I'm too afraid to build up anymore trust,

please understand this, please you must,

so for now, pen and paper I bid goodbye,

this may just be the last thing I ever write.

    I thought this was a great poem. The metaphors here was used very nicely. Starting with:

    This may just be the last thing I ever write,

    for I must rebuild and it will take some time,

    I liked the way you put these two together. Love does take a while to rebuild when it fails

    I hate to say it, but you're "that guy" that broke me,

    broke my guard to see my secrets that were showing,

    This actually was an interesting part. Sometimes people have secrets and when their exposed it causes some problems in a relationship.

    you stepped into my safe house, that what's deep within,

    then pulled out a grenade and then pulled the pin,

    I liked the imagery here with the grenade and pin into the safe house. It was really neat the way you put this together.

    leaving everything abolished and me to cry,

    feeling vulnerable with no place left to hide,

    And of course the results here. That is what happens when a relationship ends.

    and now I'm overcome with all this fear,

    afraid to trust everyone else that's near,

    sometimes when secrets get revealed people get scared that it will spread is what I got form here.

    so this may just be the last thing I ever write,

    for I fear I'm exposing what I have left inside,

    and I'm too afraid to build up anymore trust,

    please understand this, please you must,

    so for now, pen and paper I bid goodbye,

    this may just be the last thing I ever write.

    And this ending just went together. Sometimes things just don't work out. But this poem was nicely done. Great job. :)
