You push me away, For a better view you say, After inviting me into your life, I don't understand it, What do you feel, You've reopenned that crack, In the dam of my heart, The one you so recently sealed, From whence these words pour forth, I love you, But you doubt yourself, You want to become better friends, Yet make no effort for the goal, You don't seem to understand, The implications of this turn-about, I feel like its something that I did, Its my fault you want some space, My fault that I risk losing, You whom I seek, My fault that I run the chance, Of forever being apart, Now I realize the truth of it all, For I was granted the infamous role, That of the rebound, In which our chances were squandered by hasty fate, Tear me apart, For now I may rebuild myself, A fresh start, Yet never wholely healed, The dam is bursting, The dike is cracked, My heart is breaking, But will you come back, I can only wait. |

"I love you, But you doubt yourself, You want to become better friends, Yet make no effort for the goal," This is beautiful! A very nice post. Sometimes all we can do it wait... Very nicely done.

"The dam is bursting, The dike is cracked, My heart is breaking, But will you come back, I can only wait" It really sucks to be in this kind of situation, but you describe it so well. I hope that you find it in yourself to write whenever you feel happy, or whenever you feel anything! You write really well, and I look forward to seeing more of your work. Thanks for sharing.

very well done.......I found this to be quite a depressing read and I surely do hope things get better for you. I enjoyed this poem greatly though, and hope to see some happy poems someday.  I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust. |
