*Sigh* No more love for me... I'm sick of getting hurt.. this is what I call a pissed-poem... a poem to show how pissed I am.. looking at it again.. I don't think I succeeded...

You Had No Right
You had no right
To come and enter my world
And shatter every dream
And take away my hope
You had no right
To see my love unfurled
Like a banner's tattered seams
Like the frayed ends of a rope
You had no right
To steal what was not mine
For a while I would have kept
For it brought comfort to me
You had no right
To cross an undrawn line
Your grace awkward and inept
Your eyes that could not see
You had no right
To thrust fire in my face
Though truth it should have been
Though good was what you meant
You had no right
To always set the pace
In a war you had to win
In a look so softly sent
You had no right
To break my bonds
While dreams still had their glamour
While love still held me tight
You had no right
To make me go beyond
You held me in enamour
You had no right.

*Sigh*

Certainly "had no right"
sorry you had to go through
such a major learning growing
experience.
I hope everything is getting better now,
and that you are moving on.
Never give up, Hope is the Key.
Well written and structured.
Maybe some breaks along the way
might have helped .
OH I guess that advice could work for the
poem as well as the relationship.
