If We Hadn't Met

A poem to finally Cut them away

If We Hadn’t Met 

Sitting here looking at past memories 

These times I want to forget

every captured image 

every little love poem

I now burn in regret 

I wish I hadn’t laughed with you

your laugh then I wouldn’t miss

I wish I hadn’t pressed your lips

I wouldn't now miss your kiss

I wish you hadn’t been so perfect

Until the day you did me wrong  

For now I am A victim 

sitting in regret

I wouldn't be feeling this pain

If we Hadn’t met

You forgot about me easily 

Moved on with such haste 

walked away from all our problems

which are now laid to waste 

 

The burning of our memories 

staring at the blaze 

seeing one last image

but my mind it doesn’t faze 

cupids broken arrow it was one of his best 

An arrow I once saw as strong

 now a scar upon my chest 

I had your name written upon me

our love forever I made a bet

I wouldn’t have made this mistake

If we hadn't met

Nothing left to remind me of you 

moving day is soon

cut you out of my whole life

Leaving the memories of this tomb

If you try to reach me 

just don’t even cast a net

because in my eyes your dead to me

Your someone I haven’t met

So sad :( I loved the flow and the word choice. The person who said, "It is better than to have loved and lost than never loved at all," never went through losing someone, eh?

We all need to forget the past for good, but how many of us accomplish it for real?
The poem sounded like it's coming of the wounds created in your heart, speaking out of ache caused, good job

Good job. It was an emotional and love-filled write. Thank you for sharing.

[GamingGal]

Pros: Man, can I feel the emotion in this one! Especially in the last stanza. I'm sensing anger and sorrow and frustration and pain and all sorts of things. Quite the medley, if you ask me. But they blend together nicely, flow together well. These emotions come through easily to the reader. Also, the rhyme scheme gives it a nice flow.

Cons: None, except the wording seemed odd in a few places, but most of it seemed due to you attempting to keep the rhyme scheme going.

Overall: I liked this.

Mesmerising. Beautifully flowing tale of a love that crashed and burned. Sorry mate, but someone with your emotional intensity may struggle with "forgetting the past for good".

I've told myself I'm forgetting the past for good and still haven't gotten around to it. D: Very moving poem. There are many people in my life, or out of it, right now that I wish I hadn't met. Last line, it should be you're, not your.

Hard to move on once one falls hard. You did a great job of describing your feelings and thought processes on the sitution in poetic form. Well done.

[Esoteric Strand]

This poem has more of a song feel to it. Maybe it's the part about your kiss on my lips or whatever. There's nothing that really stands out, or to set it apart from countless lovelorn poetry.

Regards,
