just about where I want to be

Nothing for Valentine's Day
Nothing for Christmas
Nothing for my birthday
For me

Nothing but lies
And broken promises
Nothing but heartache
For me

No more happiness
Or dreams of forever
No more love from you
For me

Not a single rose
Or a single card
No phone call either
For me

No more love
No more dreams
No more marriage
Of my heart to yours
For me...

Me and my fiance' are not together anymore. He sent me an e-mail saying he couldn't handle us being apart, or a long engagement, which was his idea. So..broken-hearted and all alone, I write this poem, and nurse my wounded heart...on Valentine's Day  

~~Lavada~~

For every truth, there is an ear somewhere to hear it
For every love, there is a heart somewhere to receive it".--Ivan Panin

I must have read the other one first I guess, but this is a great poem. I'm sure it's hard and everything, especially on Valentine's Day, but keep smiling and hopefully something'll work out for you.

scg: if this poem is true to life, then i dont think this guy ever had the right to propose to you... even more so if what you say now is also true (that he has a new girlfriend already)... hope you can bounce back (i'm sure you can)... email me if you need to talk (poetry_kills@hotmail.com)...

sincerely,
jerome the melancholy priest

 Disarm you with a smile
And leave you like they left me here
To wither in denial
The bitterness of one who's left alone

Lavada~  I loved your poem, and I can't believe he did that to you... I'm here for ya, if you need to talk.  My e-mail is angel6982_2000@yahoo.com....  It's okay to cry, it shows emotion and strength that you're not afraid of what others think...  I'm always here for ya, I promise.

Arr... let me at'em! I'll tear'em up! How cruel and mean. V-day has been nothing but a bummer for alot of people. I sure hope the un-lovedboat doesn't sink because it's overloaded! I send you my sincere condolences and a big HUG!

Lavada,
    This was a really great poem as well.  After readnig your little explanation at the bottom..it seems sad that we're in an age, where something so personal, as breaking up with someone you thought you were going to spend the rest of your life, is done through an email.  It's amazing that we've come to that.  Keep your head up.
