I'm not sure what it is called but here is my base name

Maybe, just Maybe.

I was dark and upset
And now I cannot pretend
That a hero was sent for me
In search for a reason
But I turned away in pain
Wilting with humiliation
Bleeding before your ominous eyes
Was I only dreaming of the fact you ever loved me?
Was your falseness too blinding to see beyond its lies?
If only my eyes had been clearer then
If only I had the strength to refuse your breathless hate
Why had I become such a fool to your eyes?
Was I made to believe lies and slander?
And why do I still dream of you?
I know I will soon move on
But I can’t imagine the weight releasing
I can’t find a reason to want you gone
Still I turn away at the attempts to let go
Pain is surrounding me now
I’ll let it engulf me
Maybe, just maybe
It will let me forget
Or maybe, just maybe
I’ll remember
Remember the times when I felt peace
When I was not only free, but felt it too
I’ll smile foolishly as everything begins to dissolve
I’ll stay in the world I once knew
I’ll be who I thought I’d always be
I’ll say goodbye to everything I want
I’ll ignore everything I don’t
But I’ll look at you
I’ll look in you eyes
Still bleeding
But I’ll stare; I’ll stare straight through you
I’ll make you hear what I hear
Feel what I feel
See what I see
And maybe, just maybe
You’ll join me in this world of forgiveness.

Thanx and plez reply and give me feedbak

It's good as it stands, but it could use some tightening of the language.... things like this

"Was I only dreaming of the fact you ever loved me?"

...are you dreaming of the fact, or just dreaming? I don't think there's a fact in there....

"If only"....how about "If"? Stuff like that.

Forty lines, see if you can cut a total of forty words -- I bet you can. On the way you may lose a few lines by combining, or you may not....

Oh, and on a personal note pleeeeze lose the magenta! Gawd I hate that color! When I see it I either skip the poem or highlight the whole thing so I can look at some other color.....which I did with this one!

Maybe just maybe they will?  Funny thing about forgiveness it takes a long time to hand it out, but we expect it quickly ourselves I think anyway.  Nicely done, and Happy Holidays to you.

Happy Holidays                    
Let there be peace on earth,

How shall a heart tell a heart about how a heart feels, smile you told it wery well yaself.

I know the questions you ask yaself inside, i have asked them myself, but if we are not allowed to try to seek even the better at any time, then we will give up and only fight the fog so that those arround us can live.

But in the end there is one thing that counts alot, if you are not satiesfied, with your life then, you cant tell others how they should do smile. So always listen to your inside questions they come from your heart.

I liked your words they ask questions, hope i gave a few answers smile.

What is the old saying, "to err is human, but to forgive, divine."  I hope he accepts his divinity!
