I hate myself,
for what I've put you through,
for making you feel like a failure,
when you're the one who was right,
when you took the punishment,
the one I deserved.

I hate myself,
for breaking your fragile heart,
for blaming you when things go wrong,
especially since I messed up,
and I did wrong to you,
while you were so good to me.

I hate myself,
for telling you so many lies in the end,
just so you wouldn't hate me,
and so I wouldn't hurt you.
But I still hurt you,
and for that I hate myself.

~Kristi Lynn

Now, this is excellent! Have you ever consider writing with rhyme?

Thanks much for your replies.  
Dean:  Thanks for your compliments, and I can honestly say I wish you couldn't relate, 'cuz it's hard.
Tamma:  Congrats, and from the way things are going, I might be with the one I wanted to be with soon, too.
Master:  I try to write in rhyme, but for me it doesn't work very well.  I did one recently, but I don't know if it's that great.

Angel..you the girl..you the girl! Excellent poem! Exactly how I felt when I broke up with the boy of my dreams! Luckily though, he understood, and took me back...now we are happy as ever! Thanks for posting a poem that I could relate to!
