My Poetry

Sad words you called them
They made you cry
But you cannot say
They are a lie

I write what I feel
What makes me sad
I don’t really care
If it makes you feel bad

For I’m hoping in words
Written for all
You’ll finally see
How far I did fall

From the pedestal you wanted
To place me upon
The promise is over
The hurt goes on

I’m not saying we’re through
But I’m making you see
Once and for all
What you’ve done to me

So read the words
With tears in your eyes
I cried too darling
Living these lies

And I am trying to work
On making “us” right
But I will not stop writing
Of our sorrowful plight

I’ve lived long in silence
And found my voice again
So I put down the memory
Of what happened then

And hope soon these dreams
Will reveal a happy place
When you stop thinking of you
And put a smile on my face

Until then my dearest
I’ll find joy for me
Simply by sharing
My poetry.
