Please go ahead and take it all
your shallow promises and lies
you swore one day to love me true
but all you do now is deny.

Just take it while you slam the door
and take my heart out of your hands
leave it in pieces on the floor
and later, I may understand.

Take love and happiness with you
for surely I won't need them now
take hope and friendship and my dreams
I have no use, of this I vow.

Yes, take it all, it matters not
since you have given me the facts
you said you do not love me now
If only you would take it back..

One can not take back but only change what they have to give...

Time needs change as much as you and I.

Lets change our stars!

catalinamoon - as I've learned sometimes we can't go back.. And perhaps not the tango, but a nice slow bluesy one would be my pleasure...

Sandra, some things we just can't take back.  This is a wonderful expression of exasperation...to say the least.

Sandra, I'm crying.

You inspire this little poem.

In Pure Love

There's nothing left to take, it's gone
You're empty now; I'll travel on
Without your heart what good are words
Such empty sounds, a waste when heard.

And though I hurt and cry at night
I'd rather live in truthful sight
I know that God will heal this pain
So I'll start now to end the rain.

I'll plant a little seed of hope
And care and nourish it, and cope
As I demand true love for me
In God with all His purity.

And as I start a brand new day
I'll not give up! I'll laugh and play
And sing with Angels, heaven's song
Walking upward in Pure Love's throng.

In Pure Love.

((Sandra))

If only they'd take a good dose of their own medicine. Someday perhaps..but take a look at the art of yourself. The things he can't ever take from you. Powerful write Sandra!!

Regina

We must not surrender our hopes and dreams no matter what so my daddy has said2me and whenever I'm feeling downNout I remember his sweet words2me and somehow the sadness within the heart fades all in due time...
Your poem tugz at my heart sweetPoetFriend...

Take his heart, return to thee..
No more love on bended knees
You deserve much more..for this I pray
Someone that loves you in every way..

(Only a good friend could get away with such words..)
I insist that you get all the wonderful things you deserve!!!!!
(((hugs))))
