Your Last Poem

Why won't you leave
The chambers of my mind?
Though you're something beautiful,
Gentle and kind

You haunt my thoughts
And linger in my heart
It's like I got shot
With Cupid's love dart

You drive me crazy
You drive me mad
With one of the only things
That I've never had

Which would be you
How did you guess?
Well, continuing from before
I again must confess

You both think I'm fine
When you two are together
While I secretly hope
That it doesn't last forever

I feel awful to think this way
But I'm honestly okay
My feelings about you have been outrageous
Ever since that crazy day

When I asked you to be mine
In my reserved way
We didn't know it then
But you took my heart away

You never answered me
You chose someone better
And no one knows
How it hurt me more than ever

Each day I see you with him
It kills me more inside
And surprisingly
It's in my journals that I confide

I can't talk to my best friend
Because she's your ex
Not only that
But you and her had sex

That makes it hard
When there's no one you can tell
And, to me
It feels like hell

I think I could get over you
If I stopped writing this poem
But when I'm writing
I have somewhere away from home

This might be my last one for you
I don't know
I should stop
So I can learn to let go

I'm going to get over everything
Hair, face, everything that makes you hot
Personality, speech
Everything you've got

The way I lose myself
In your eyes
Because all this temptation
Is nothing but lies

The way my heart soars
When you squeeze my hips
And when your hair
Touches my fingertips

How I think the sweetest music
Is the sound of your speech
How my fantasy
Is you and me at the beach

How the very thought of you with her
Makes my eyes leak
I've tried telling my friends
But they think I'm a freak

They just don't understand
How you make me feel
That because I'm in too deep
I need time to heal

So this is the last poem for you
The very last one
So begins the healing
Because this poem is done
