Just Another Storm

I know, it hurts
the storm has come and gone
leaving you and I
broken in ruins but this cant be where i die

I needed someone that protected me from my self
and you never could
and so i move on from this place
with a heavy heart all alone

The memories held me down for so long
because i couldn't just let go of you
and it still hurts
but i know now what i must do to survive this place

There is nothing left
and i desperately rebuild my life
from the broken pieces
you left of my heart on the floor

Time is no friend as he burns the wound shut
and the tears they flow like blood from a cut
But i need to be strong with one foot after another
i just have to move on

Because you’ve left me to rot all alone.

Great imagery and flow.. love the last line, it sums up the entire poem perfectly.

My fave lines:

Time is no friend as he burns the wound shut
and the tears they flow like blood from a cut

They just speak to me.. great poem, wonderful job!

Very emotionally taxing. I really enjoyed it Angel (hope I can call you that for short). It reminds me a lot of my own poetry. I ONLY write poetry when I'm in a dark place, and I don't post it because I'm passive aggressive and people who read it think I should seriously be in therapy. Glad to see someone else knows how therapeutic and beautiful expressing pain can be :) I'll definitely be back to read some more.

Man is this vivid and emotional! Could job! With this one! Some of your lines seem to be a bit too long which throws off the flow a little but wow! This was really good

Ouch. This one punches me in the chest. Very deep and heartfelt. Your sentiments of loss weep on the page. Good job in feeding those feelings to the reader.

The pain of a broken heart that did not have its needs met and feels like it will never be the same again. Well penned
