Letting Go

by Amanda Chapman   Nov 14, 2005


You came into my life,
my heart will never be the same,
now I'm left alone here crying,
with only myself to blame.
I blame only myself,
for letting you in,
to this heart of mine,
that was on the mend.
How can you mean this much to me,
when my existence means nothing to you,
I never meant to have these feelings,
I wonder, "Why did I fall for you?"
Time is suppose to heal all wounds,
but the wounds just simply won't heal,
the pain inside grows stronger,
at times I don't know how to feel.
I don't understand what I did to you,
I will never understand why,
when you said you had it bad for me and I love you,
I guess that was also a lie.
There's not a day that goes by,
I haven't thought of you,
wondering how your day was going,
and if you'll ever really love me too.
I realize now,
that this love will never be,
I'm the one always wanting you,
never anymore is it you wanting me.
I'm letting go now,
of all the things I thought I felt,
just know how much I really cared,
and how you made my heart melt.
The touch of your hand,
the smile on your face,
the warmth of your kiss,
time will soon erase.
I know I'm not the one for you,
somehow I thought you were the one for me,
it's clear you don't want me now,
I just never wanted to see.
The butterflies you once gave me,
will soon fly away,
and I will open my heart to another,
that will love me back someday.
So take these feelings I have put into words,
and delete them bit by bit,
because I know now all the words you spoke,
you never really meant.

    That was a really good poem. It was very touching and I could really relate to it. I just recently got my heart broken and everything you said is exactly how I'm feeling. Good job!
