Eight months together
Seems like forever
Its come down to this one night
Will I be able to continue the fight?

My friends all warned me
They said to watch out
But I was sure I could resist you
I had no doubts.

It started with a kiss
but turned into more
We started heading towards a place
we had never been before.

You said that you loved me
Why couldnt I see
It was neither my heart nor mind
that you wanted from me

So I gave in
I didnt say no
I can see now
How I was majorly played.

Why I fell for you
I am not really sure
But its been a week now
You still havent called.

I'd held on to it for 19 years
now its gone and all I have is tears
My heart is breaking
my innocence taken.

Why I gave it to you
I will never quite know
I am sure I will find love one day
that can finally fill the hole.

I'm sure I'll be fine
with just a little time
Someone, someday will break your heart
the way you did mine.

WOw.....this was so utterly sad. I feel you here......man....some guys can be so evil. I enjoyed this so much. Oh it's so sad, you expressed this amazingly. I hope you get better and find a REAL MAN someday. You deserve it.

I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

I'm in love with my shadow
I admire it daily

this sounds exactly like what happened to me atabout the same age....I was alomst 19 when it happened to me.....I think you need to get angry and realize what a jerk he is....
here is one I wrote for the guy who did it to me.......

********

tell me how you do it
show me the way
to break someone's heart
then just walk away

You do it so easy
what's your trick
You do it so easy
you make me sick

How do you know
who it will be
what do you look for
what do you see

Share with me your secret
then tell me how you can
do what you do
and still call yourself a man

~SEA~


*********

at any rate...I understand, and I'm so sorry you had to go through it....love does come along....I'm proof   keep your chin up.....and keep writing..this was great....hugs to you...SEA

Shygirl82,
   I'm sorry that you had to have it go out like this!  The guy is a real jerk to treat you like that!  You deserve and will get better than him, I promise you that.  And everyone is entitled to their one mistake; we'll let you count this one as yours.  

I love ya girl~ Chelsea

Wow this was an amazing poem...but so sad!!! when you loose something very valuable and important to you it leaves u with such an empty feeling..im sorry this happened. I loved this line
                   "tell me how you do it
                    show me the way
                    to break someone's heart
                    then just walk away"
I thought it was just amazing along with the rest of the poem. Amazing job....::Hugs::

Hey wow I just found this poem.
Some guys are just the scum of the Earth, not worth spitting on if they were on fire.
Maybe that's not harsh enough..you get the idea.
I sorry this happened to you.
He'll get his eventually, don't worry.

Hey. The poem was great, but thats a really sad thing that happened. A lot of guys can be jerks sometimes(although I'm a guy I try not be a jerk). I'm sure that you'll find someone that'll treat you nice.

Oh Nikki...
I'm sorry this happened.
You wrote your feelings down well though.
Most men are pigs...always after that one thing.
Great Read.

A very emotional piece with definite stanzas in it that move the reader to feel what the writer seemed to be thinking at the various points in time. ^_^  That's a skill which very few people possess... and I think that you have quite a way with words.  'Tis a sad experience to have to live through... but you seem to have grown and learned from it and woven quite an impressive piece of verse from it.  And since the past cannot be changed, that's what important, ne?

This poem seemed to have a lot of things which a lot of people here seem to be able to relate to.  It is often said that things which don't kill you will come to make you stronger... hopefully, from what I've seen from the emotion in this piece, you'll stop shedding tears of hurt and be able to move on with your life. ^_^

My favorite line set is the third stanza... but that's basically where the poem officially starts, in my opinion, and that's where all of the poem's flow seems to head towards... if that makes an sense. ^_^  It seems to sum up the entire poem in ways that tne ending and the introduction could not... and definitely had the strongest echo for me. ^_^

A really nice piece of work, and it's the first piece I've seen from you, or at least the first one which really made an impact, if I've read others of yours before, but haven't made a name connection yet. ^_^  Beautiful writing... and until next time.  Keep your chin up, ne? ^_~  Ja!

This is beautifully written!!

The pain...the shock...the betrayal...the distress...so many emotions pulled at my heart strings.  

I could "feel" all the sentiments here.

Certainly the circumstances you had to endure were very tragic and I am sorry this happened to you.  Very sorry!


This one is a keeper!  Excellent!

I musta missed this one   I'm glad I came back in and read it tho...   I know this is prolly long over, and you're feeling better.. but I just want to let you know that I enjoyed your poem, and I hope you're feeling stronger now. I also have that little problem saying no, and it sometimes gets me into trouble. And into sitch's I'd rather not be in. Glad to see your work...keep it up!
