Your true colors were revealed On the day you said goodbye How could you be so insensitive How dare you make me cry You once told me that you loved me That we'd be together eternally But instead of our two sets of footprints All of a sudden there were three I had become so unimportant For you gave your love to someone else Did you think I'd just sit back Like a dusty ornament on a shelf? I am not a fragile little flower And will not be defeated by you So I suggest you pack your bags And simply fade from my view You took my love for granted But now I'm taking it away I'll save my love for one more worthy Remnants of you will just blow away Suetang |

(big huggssssssss) Oh Sue, I know how hard it must feel to have the courage to say goodbye and sacrifice a love that once thought existed like this! (sigh) Oh Sue, I hope now true love has filled the nest of your heart, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Sue, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..." |

About the mechanics of the poem: Nice rhyme scheme. The meter is unusual, but I like your daring. About the sentiment of the poem: Hang in there! I'm very proud of anyone who is brave enough to be willing to say goodbye after such a long period of trust. |
