A love that failed

by Catie   Aug 8, 2007


I act like it doesn't hurt,
but we both know thats not true.
I took my heart and gave it to you.

You acted like you cared for a moment or two.
But you can't be faithful because that's just not "you".---

But I won't cry-won't let you see
that everything you did is killing me.

I'll keep moving on one step at a time
Until the day you came back to screw up my mind
You'll say you are sorry and to keep in mind that we all
"screw up" from time to time.

ButI'm sickof your sorries and fake'I love yous
I'm sick of trying to find ways to please you.

So I give up now not on life but on you...
I'm tired of sitting round waiting for you..

I'll walk away now with my head held up high-- and try to remember you're not the best guy...

I'll find it somewhere, somewhere deep inside to keep on going living my life.

So good bye to you and to all of my fears-good by to a love that could not even last half a year.

    This was a nice poem. I like how you stated that you gave up on him, not your life. Some people just say they gave up and leave it at that. Well done, 5/5. Keep writing!
