Oh, how you ***** me! How you betrayed me! You took away our romance! Berated me, Degenerated me At every turn of the dance!
Now, when you lied, How I did cry. How your mis-deeds turned me out. I tried to forgive, Tried to forget. I tried to figure all this out.
Time and again You hurt me so. Everytime you strike with a low blow. Shame comes to me In memories. I try my best to let you go.
You live to lie. I wonder why There is no truth inside your heart. Your acridine, Oscillate, shine. You went right through me like a dart.
Where were you When I needed someone? You wrecked the soul of who I used to be. You rocked the loom. And weaved love's tomb. You have been the death of me.
This is the time. I know I'll find The strength I need to tell you so. By this night's end, Freedom begins. I know I've got to let you go.
I have been playing with this one for about eight years. I was tweaking the last stanza of this poem that was meant to be a song just now. I wrote it from the perspective of a best friend who was going through a break up. What I love about creating poetry is that it can be always changing. I am sure over the years this one will continue to evolve.
