Why'd you stay away for so long?
I'm so alone when you're gone
Weeks go by without a word
Told you how I feel, but you never heard

You never listen and you'll never know
How I feel - how I miss you so
You'll never know how I cried
You'll never know how I feel inside

Why'd you have to sleep around?
Take off the halo and golden crown.
You're not worthy of my love
You're not the man I dreamed of

You never listen and you'll never know
How I feel - how you hurt me so
You'll never know how I cried
You'll never know how I feel inside

Now you're sleepin alone at night
That girl ain't around to hold you tight
I hear from you the next day
Tell me how you wish that you had stayed

You never listen and you'll never know
How I feel - how you hurt your soul
You'll never know how to give
You'll never know tenderness
You'll never know the meaning of a kiss
You'll never know the the truth of love
You'll wish you did when you've had enough

Now I'm happy - I don't need you
Don't need the lies that you put me through
I hope you realize what you've thrown away
I hope you miss me the rest of your days

*****this ones written more to be a song, but I have no definate melody - I just wrote.

This poem had really good rhythm. It's also a nice way to tell someone exactly what a jerk they are without coming off as one yourself. I really relate to this one.

I've seen people do that, and I think it's terrible. There's nothing more pathetic (sorry) than someone breaking using people only when the other side ain't so green...
Nice poem moonlight, I agree that it has a nice rythm...

Shoot for the moon. Even if you miss, you'll be among the stars.

So let the sun beat down upon my face,
It's warmth will dry my tears.
