Heart be strong, don’t fail me now, Life goes on, someway, somehow, Never knew innocence could be a crime, But I’ll make it through these trying times, Stupid, young, scared, but true, All these things I was to you, You thought you had a little girl, To play with in your grown-up world, I knew when to leave, knew when to let it go, But I never thought there was so much I didn’t know, And I may still be little, but no longer am I scared, I know now what’s out there and my heart will be prepared, Still got my pride, still got the strength in my soul, Though you pierced my heart, time will mend the hole, You can’t keep me down, can’t trample all my dreams, Can’t play me for a fool with your childish schemes, Someday I’ll look back and find I left you in the dust, A memory of my youth, a short-lived state of lust, I’ll wonder what I saw in you, why I had liked you so, And laugh at the little girl I was not so long ago, You had me for a while, got by on just your charm, Can’t believe I was so ignorant, so gullible, so easy to disarm, For now my hearts still healing, working through the pain, I’m getting stronger day by day and soon I’ll smile again, Time will ease the pain and my heart will surely heal, I’ll learn to see the difference from the fake words and the real, No more feigned affection, no more sweet sounding lies, Thanks to you, such things I now easily recognize, Heartache is the price you pay for innocence, As strength and knowledge are its consequence, So courage don’t desert me, the journey still is long, As life undoubtedly continues, Heart you must be strong, [This message has been edited by pure_innocence (edited 09-27-2001).] |

WOW!!! I hope you realize that not all relationships are like that. As someone else who always seems to get used I've learned to ask myself if the other person is treating me the way I think I should be treated and if they are not, Better tell em to shape up or get out. It's hard but in the end it's for the better. Great write. Ex Animo, Aaron |

Hey, wow, great poem Most excelently written. As Aaron (I believe) had said, not all relationships turn out like that- in my case some end up with the other person ignoreing you when you've done nothing wrong (But we won't get into my relationships)...Stick in there, keep writing, can't wait to see more poetry from you. -Nathan "Like the sun without the moon, so is a relationship with devotion." - Me "A poem should be written one time and from the heart, not the mind." - Me "What use is your heart If you can't put it into words What use is your heart If you can't share it with the one you love Don't waste your gift Given to you by the creater from above" - Me |

I really like this one!!! I know that you will definately work through it with none of the bitterness and cynicism that a lot of people come out with. Good write, and your heart will be strong, I'm sure of it! |
