Differentiate the past from the present
It's all gone now
You're out of my head, my life
You're gone now

It still hurts every now and then
The way it ended
How it all turned out to be
All the pain I went through

I don't know why you're still in my head
I blocked you out
I tried to kill your memory
But you still come back to haunt me

It's over now, please go
Please, just leave me alone
Get out of my head, out of my life
Please, just let me be

You hurt me once, you hurt me twice
You hurt me a million times
You abused and used me to no end
I had nowhere to go, so I let you

I ran from you, you followed me
Claiming that you loved me the whole time
How could you love me when
You hurt me so much?

Differentiate now and then
Leave my life, leave my head
Your "love" is destroyed, it's all gone
You're nothing to me now, please go

I really like this poem! I can relate, even though there is not really any love on HIS part, his memory will torment me long after he goes home... good job!

This poem is really good. This kind of stuff is hard to deal with. I had to once and he still pops in and out every so often. I don't think it will ever go away, especially since some of my enviroment reminds me oif him, and he was 2 years of my life, that is now gone. hang in there.
LOVED the poem! :

Thank you all so much for your replies on this.  This is probably one of my most meaningful poems yet.  It is extremely hard to break away from someone who is sexually and mentally abusive and somehow I did.  And it's even harder to get them out of your thoughts and dreams even after a long time. Thank you for your kindness.
