Can't go On

How could a person of so little value,
Break my spirit and eyes so blue,
It's not like you're the light of my life,
But you gave me some hope to look forward to tomorrow,

I really thought I was getting better,
Not because of you I just felt good,
But it seems like one little thing,
Will send my world crashing down,

I grew to like you just a bit,
Over two odd days,
You said you liked me and then asked me out,
But took it all back a minute ago,

I had a feeling you only wanted me,
Because of my looks or for,
A root or two,
I must have been right because you refused,

Some may say count myself lucky,
Not to be put through,
Another broken relationship,
Leaving permanent scars,

But if that may be so,
At least I would have a smile,
For an hour or more,
If only times didn't change,

So now as I sit here,
Behind a locked door,
I start to dry my eyes,
I can't go on anymore.

(Not my best, but I wrote what I felt at the time.)
