You will never be a man

To an old friend, who only wants pity on himself, thanks a lot for making me feel like dirt!

No woman wants a child

As the man of their dreams

They want to be the child

And have all they need

They want to be protected

In warm embarrassing arms

Be kissed and told sweet nothings

When they feel down

 

You act as though you are everything

For the longest time I believed

I thought I could tell you anything

What a fool

The fool is I

You never cared of my dreams

Just pushed them down

And let me bleed

 

Now I cry, of nothing

But the time I wasted on you

For all the dreams, I told you

Will never mean a thing

 

I told you in confidence and help

But you only see what I was not

 

To tell you my past

Made me feel like had a future

To have you hold my hand

Made me feel like it mattered

 

To you it was pity

You never cared of me

Found it useless to listen

If it bothered you so much

To help me with my problems

You should have never tried

 

As you will never be a man to anyone

No matter how hard to try

This is a nice poem, I could feel a lot of the emotion that you put in to it.

[Michelle Grayson]

Boy, this was really strong with feeling. I will agree with the others.. emotions like this are best purged in poetry and then moved on from. I hope these feelings have long since past. Really well written!

I know who this refers to. Get it out in a poem.It always makes you feel better.

I agree with this too...cause it was just pity...he will never be a man...he will always be immature....he should grow up...anyways good job...
