Dont know

by Lexi Lou   Oct 15, 2004


I want to be there for you
but how many times have you hurt me
i don't wanna be hurt
i don't know what i want to be

i want to save you the trouble
so i wont get hurt again
but how do i know you wont shape up?
become an actual friend

i don't know what to do
it seems hopeless to forgive
but i want to do whats right
so i can be proud of the way i live

theres a difference between forgiveness
and letting you step on me
i cant draw the line
and out of confusion i see

all i see is myself
standing as lost as before
wanting to reach out
but afraid to get hurt more

remember in times of need
that i helped you
and when your gonna blame me again
don't expect me to blame myself to

if you think turning my life upside down
will bring me running to you
you better think again
and put yourself in my shoes

    This was deep - and very well written
    i don't know what to do
    it seems hopeless to forgive
    but i want to do whats right
    so i can be proud of the way i live

    Those are my favourite lines but all together you have done a wonderful job expressing your feelings/doubts in this piece you should be very proud!

    wow, that's a really smart, psychological poem, you stated the situation really clearly. I don't know if it has enough emotion though... but who am I to comment? cool poems, keep writing! :)
