No Longer

No Longer

A Poem by Blake Q Hatfield

I need to set myself free
From the holds of past, a misery
I'm tired of feeling the loss
I'm tired of wondering what you thought

And I can see it now
You never loved me like I thought you did
I was just your moment in time
I was just someone to pass the time

The words you said now ring so hollow
You spoke of forever, ceremony and ring
I thought you were my everything
How could you say you loved me that way
And be so quick to go away

If you loved him, you should have never stayed
And if you loved me, you should have never gone away
If you had only been honest and true
I could never feel the hurt that I do
But what does it matter, you're happy today
And that's the important thing anyway

I'm moving on, getting out that yesterday
No more praying you'd come back someday
I have to save my time for someone who'll be honest and true
I no longer want to have my forever with you
I will carry the scar along with the good times
And I'll make it to the next time
I'll find someone who'll love this heart
And not step on it from the start

Deeply moving piece. It speaks true to nature that one can lick their wounds for so long before moving on, grieving lost relationships should be a pivot point for looking for something better. Great job on this. The flow worked very well.
