I never meant to hurt you
by charlie herring

Never meant to lie
For you I would surrender all
For you my life would be forfieted
Hurt and love go hand in hand
A thin divide, a chasm so wide
I try to walk it but I fall in
Painfully I land at the bottom
Where I have to start all over again
Hate hurt and anger all surround me
Then you came along
They ran away, scared off by your song
But somehow I hurt you
Somehow I messed up
Said I didn’t love you
But it was a lie, because for you
I would die, offer this life I lead
For you I would swim the deepest sea
Go to space, to the farthest galaxy
I don’t know what you want
Nor what you need if I knew that,
Then you never would have cried
Because of me, never been in pain
Because of me, never been hurt by me
I need your forgiveness cause I need your love
I need your forgiveness cause I want your love
Of all the dumb things I have done
Losing you was number one
Let me know how I can get you back
Let me know what to do
For I cant stand losing you
I am a fool, for saying what I said
But please give me one more chance


work like you don't need the money,
dance like no one's watching, and
love like you've never been hurt

This is such a sad poem, but I know from personal experience that Valentine's day doesn't hold magic for everyone. You portray your feelings well. Thanks for posting, and I hope things work out for you.

Very sad.... I think you are a sincere & loving person, who could express your TRUE feelings in your writing...I consider that a gift...Though I hope you will heal. Continue writing.

Very sad poem here.......it sucks that this has happened to you and your former partner. I surely hope things get better.

I admire it daily

Good job of letting your emotions flow out in this one
