A tear rolls from my eye As I silently wonder why This aching pain Of which you are to blame Consumes me on this day On this bittersweet bed on which I lay
No words can keep my sadness From flowing from my fingers Onto this platform on which I type This poem, this writing, these chicken scratches Will serve as nothing but ephemeral reminiscences Of what joy you used to bring me.
We can't (couldn't) keep going We have no one to blame but ourselves It is time to keep on trucking Move on And hope for someone/something new
It is a brutal, grim, meat hook realization that we are not good for each other and it is very hard to accept. I think, 10 years from now we may either look at this point in our lives as either nothing but a flight of fancy or something we had that we were not able to contain very well that was at times equally magical and horrid. A deep Fear surrounded our relationship and there was not enough Support from either side to make it last. Things fade. Time has a way of showing how Stupid and Miserable everyone was. You fell in love with a drunken *******. I fell in love with a **** disguised as a fallen angel. Looking back one year, we never would have thought this is how we would be spending the anniversary of our first kiss. Our first moment. We were crazy. We still are. I don't want resentment anymore. I don't want your love. I just want acknowledgement today. I want you to find someone in your school that reminds you of me in one form or another and give him a hug, because you need it, I need it and judging who he reminds you of, he probably needs it to. I will acknowledge you today in the only way I know how. Inebriation whilst listening to Elliott Smith. May I never do it again. This is my send off. Jackie Be careful. I still care about you. I wish you nothing but the best. If I didn't I wouldn't have written a poem and a brief essay today. Have fun with life. Now I can be happy. This is a fitting end. Resolution is mine.
