   The Truth


I trust your words.
You say I don’t understand.
Maybe I don’t, but I’m trying to.
You say you have no confidence in yourself.
Then I must be doing something wrong.
You say you do not deserve me.
I know it can’t true.
Because,
You are the only one I can see myself with.
Unless,
These are excuses.
Excuses, for the truth you cannot bear to tell me.
All I can say is.
I love you.
I hope that my love can fill your heart.
With the confidence to love me.
Like the way your love has given me.
You say your not use to my love.
You need not get use to it.
You need only to accept it.
Don’t push away love because you are afraid.
But instead, embrace it.
You said you need time by yourself to work it out.
But why not work it out together.
With love, we can overcome any obstacles.
To be friends
Will only mean the end.
These words should hold true.
Unless,
Your words are not true.
Then these words to you are all meaningless.

probably the most preposterous thing that was ever said to me was "you deserve better" by someone i still love very much to this day but have been seperated from for more than four years, so i definately felt this piece, it's a terrible feeling not to be recieved by someone you love, best of wishes with yours.

If this is your first, please continue. It is a lovely poem.  Poetry comes in many, many formats, including free-verse style, no rhyming required. Let the words flow from your unique soul.

"To be friends
Will only mean the end."

I do believe the opposite to be true, though I understand in this context you may feel it is the closing of a door.
The door to these blue pages are always open, and we all welcome you, in friendship.
This is a very good beginning.

This is indeed one of the truest forms of poetry there is, that which comes from the heart.  This is a lovely first post.  Welcome to Passions and I know you will enjoy your time here.
