Today I gained strength and faith
To look past what made me ill all along
When she left me why I felt so broken
Not because she left me without a love token
It was an ego that was holding it
I failed to see it was tearing me bit by bit
I've my ego crushed now and I feel free
Free to love a person without holding on
Not to fear a friend who'll part soon
Show your love and compassion to all without any expectation
For nothing matters in the except a sense of satisfaction
To have loved and to have been loved
I carry on today and forever with self-esteem
Which I'll never spare for a fantastic dream

Sincerely
A_L

Great poem.
i know it can hurt when someone you love  leaves you.
You just need to allow your heart time to heal. which you obviously did.
just remember everythign happens for a reason!

great poem.
i know it hurts but times and things change. i guess its part of life that things don't stay the same. so we all move along each day on our paths.

Yup, it does hurt, and time does heal all wounds. You expressed your feeling very nice. Great Job  !

Hey there,
I thought from the title of this poem it was a positive one -- turns out I was right  ) This poem is exactly how I feel, only better said. Good job.

Maybe God has us meet a few wrong people so that when we meet the right one we can truly appreciate the gift.

its great to be loved. huh???? but it hurts like hell when you lose it. but thats some of the consequences of life. right???? your poem is really touching. alot of people go through tough times then after time passes you get through it. but you got to let go and its hard. i know how you feel. i fell in love with my best friend only to get played like a fool. it shows how much this person cares. yeah right. people say us teenagers only have "puppy love". but see they dont know how we feel. we all have feeling and emotions but some just see right past them. because of or age. and they were in our shoes at one time and they need to realize that teenagers are different then they were back when they were young. i dont know why im going on and on but your poem was BEAUTIFUL. i give you props for it.
