Why am I still alone
Can you tell me?
I've given my heart
But you are not phased

Are you cold, inside?
My heart is breaking
And you just stand there
Can you tell me why?

I've watched from a distance
Yet you never noticed
to busey with yourself!
While my heart cracks, down the middle

I had dreams of us
But you are too vain
to love anyone, besides you
I've given my all

I've cried from sadness
Can you tell me why?
Are you so superficial, that you can't
see my unconditional love?

I'm tired of it
This is my farewell
Instead of waiting and hoping
I'm moving on

You've had my love; yet
stomped it to the ground
Well I'm here to tell you
I'm forgetting you!

No more asking why
Love is wasted on you
So my heart will find someone else
And forget your self-centered hide!



 The glory of friendship is not the outstretched hand, not the kindly smile, not the joy of companionship; it is the spiritual inspiration that comes to one when he discovers that someone believes in him and is willing to trust him with his friendship."

--Ralph Waldo Emerson

I hope you find someone  more deserving love.
He certainly isn't. I can relate to this a lot.

Good poem.  A lot of things covered here.  Saddness, weakness, self-doubt and in the end - strength to move on and forward.

hey dhuron, I apreciate this piece. I like the way you put it. And I know exactly how you feel, cause I am in the same position, and I am having to do the same thing, which is forget the one I loved, but that did not love me !!!

Finding the strength to move on is not an easy task, but something that must be done at times.  I hope you find someone deserving of your love.

Great poem, looks like you have pondered over this for a while and have found the path that will bring you peace of mind at least, good luck to you I'm sure the right person is waiting in the wings.

Yes, sometimes it's better to move on. I hope you'll find someone who gives you as much love as you have to give.
