In an upside-down garden

Give me back my letters.
give me back my poems.
give me  back what i wrote for you,
i don't mean it anymore.

Give me back my heart.
Give me back my love.
Give me back the smiles,
they aren't meant for you.

Give me back my courage.
Give me back my strength.
Give me back my laughter,
you were just a waste.

Give me back what I gave you,
all the things that are there,
but that you cannot see,
weither you see it or not,
they're all a part of me.

*hug* Very sad poem.  A tough situation, indeed.  Good luck with it... if you need someone to talk to, give me a holler   Nicely done.

~Give me back my heart.
Give me back my love.
Give me back the smiles,
they aren't meant for you.~

That part is my fave. Don't you just wish for it to be that easy? I hope you feel better now. Great write.

I liked your rhyme and repetition, although at some point the rhyme was lost. Other than that the poem itself is good and it's a topic I bet we can all relate to, we will always fall in love and then fall out of it but just as those feelings came they also fade away, we just have to deal with it.

I see the darkness coming all is bleak...

Poetry dosen't have to rhyme perfectly or flow right, as long as it's from the heart, at least thats what i believe.  This poem was VERY good, love can hurt, but it will work out in the end.  Do I believe that?  If I didn't I would have been gone from this world long ago.

Love will come and love will go, but friends are forever (usually).
