-=thanks for the christmas card=-


happy christmas times! so full of joy, so full of glee.
but the hatred looks so pretty underneath my tree.
I can't believe You had the guts to send me this card
written in the blood from my broken heart.

I don't care about Your promotion at work.
what's the difference between "sales rep" and "clerk"?
sent along a picture of Your caring eyes and stupid smirk.
and Your arms around that grinning, handsome jerk.
I remember when it was Us holding hands.
baseball seems so boring now, without You in the stands.
I used to think that the fates, they must've kissed Us.
You left me for that guy, and now I'm hating You for christmas.

there's got to be a better way to deal with the pain.
I'm sure I'd hear sleigh bells if i wasn't in these reigns.
I don't give a damn about Your boyfriend's new shoes.
I don't want to hear about how happy he makes You.
I don't want to know about Your winter vacation.
I spent mine at home, awaiting an explanation.
I guess You didn't care about Us anymore.
used my heart as a mat for Your front door.
I know the saying: that nothing lasts forever.
but do You even recall any times We spent together?
is there even an Us that You can remember?
the Us that thought life can't get much better.
don't know 'bout You, but I think I really miss Us.
but as for You...I will be hating You for christmas.

thanks for the christmas card.



We all got our demons.
We all got somethin' to atone for.

Damn!!!  I absolutly loved that poem!!  I truly am sorry for your loss, but you couldn't have expressed your feelings in clearer or more creative manner.  Excellent work my friend.

This has got to be one of the most heartfelt poems I've ever read!! I'm so sorry to hear your pain! I hope that  things are looking up for you and I hope that the hate in your heart doesn't consume you. Just be careful it's a very powerful emotion and can cause a lot of damage! I'm sure you have legitimate reasoning for the emotions in your heart, just don't let it get in the way of future realtionships you may endure! Best of Luck!! Wonderful writing!

That was a beautiful poem.  I know the feeling.  I hope that it only gets better.  It was very well written.  I hope to read more.
