if watching hearts ache
and friends break
is the only thing that you ever intended for.
then i have fallen nothing but a meager victim
to your simplest of amusments.
if you could make me believe for one more minute,
maybe id break twice as hard.
im to self indulged in the thought
that i have found someone to sit back
and let life fall apart.
yet im easilier broken then pleased
and with all thats happened,
content is far beyond my reach.
if those three days has helped you any
in realizing your worth nothing
then im happy.
if your tears are brought from knowing
that you fuct this up,
then be happy
with the thought that you wont ever hear from me again.
if this was all up to me,
id throw you away in an instant
just to know you felt the same.
since ive laughed loud enough and hid long enough
then now its my turn to watch nothing more
then ache be brought upon myself.
ive lived the hopes of a dream
and stretched them to twice the size.
beyond reasonable repair my dreams are left
never to be mended and never to occur.
im left the desolate soul you made me.
hating every word that comes from your lips.

I enjoyed this. Nice to see you posting. You should come around more, but anyhow I liked the poem.

I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

I'm in love with my shadow
I admire it daily

Not bad, I did notice some profanity in the first part of the second half though, which is against guidelines.
Keep that in mind.

Hey, great poem but I might make one quick suggestion, the eleventh line caught me and I think it might flow a little easier if it were changed from

"yet im easilier broken then pleased"
                 to
"yet i'm more easily broken than pleased"

but whatever floats your boat!!!

good job
