I wish I could trust you again
You hurt me and scarred me
But through it all I remained your friend,
And I can’t say I like what you’ve become

I once used to think you were beautiful,
I even though we were in love,
But love, it was just temporary,
And I wish I’d never met you at all

You know I’d stand up for myself if I could
But you know you could rip my heart and toss it to the ground
And after picking myself up off up the floor,
I’d say “thank you girl, could you do it once more?”

I’ve become the peasant to your Queen,
I only wish you’d get down off your throne,
I used to love you with good cause,
And I’m beginning to think it was all a lost cause

You expressed your feelings well in this piece. I think having the last two lines end with the same word is kind of distracting but otherwise its good.

Other than the small flaw of repeating the same word for the last two lines it was a very well written poem.  It was very thought provoking too.

I didn't notice that the words in the last two lines were the same either,
I was too enthralled with the poem.
Wonderful piece, I love it!

I too agree, that if you changed the penultimate line to just say, "I used to love you" this would work a lot better and not hault the reader, but what you are saying is wonderful and you get my vote.

(sad sigh) I don't think anyone should ever feel like the peasant, or the vassal who has to work to gets ones land deed in that matter, in love there should always be equal royalty, and should never have one on the pedestal over the other! (big hugggssssss) This is heartfelt, dearest friend, I send healing hugs and my vote to you, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet friend, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

You've done a nice job on this piece.
There are some very good lines in this
and I very much enjoyed reading it.
