True Love, That's what you called it,
I didn't think it was even a little bit.
They called me a slut,
They called me a whore.
When i asked you to stand up for me,
You just walked out the door.

So your old enough to lie,
Your old enough to cheat.
Your man enough to cry,
But mad enough to beat.

Well i'm old enough to leave,
Old enough to know.
When it comes to true love,
Boy, you just say no.

So take your lies,
take Your tears.
Cause there not to be heard
by these ears.

Hey,

Just wanted to say a couple things about your poem…

One of them is it doesn’t always rhyme, you notice? I’m not sure if you were going for the rhyming effect or not.
Something that really helps you out is saying the poem out loud to yourself, it helps make sure the flow is good, there’s rhyme, and it’s not stiff in parts.

Also this line

“Well i'm old enough to leave,
Old enough to know.
When it comes to true love,
Boy, you just say no.”

I’m not sure I would have put the “boy” in there.

Other than that, good job!

Keep writing


P.S. Wow! i really am being a gloomy gus about everyones poems, i apologize. Sometimes i get a little carried away trying to point out faults and not add the good things. If this insults anyone double apology, i will try to mend my ways!

This poem actually sounds like it could be a song.  It's a really good write, even though it was brought on by a breakup. Hope everything is ok!
