How could you...?

Fists slamming into the wall
Taking a breath...
Turning to look at you
Tell me it isn't true...
Oh, but how it is
Reality couldn't have hit any harder
My love for you was real
Why was it different for you?
I hate you for doing this to me
My eyes can never find love in a man like you again...
I hoped those texts were a misunderstanding
I wished the lies that you told were reasonable
It really was what I thought in the end
Table throwing...
How could you?!
Forgive me for wishing for you to take your final breath
But, when I leave this place of heartache...
I'm the one who is going to die within

I can feel the anguish and hurt while reading this. Very beautifully written. Good job!

Like the other two, I've never had the experience but I can imagine how it'd make one feel like throwing tables. Being lied to, being cheated on... Those are some of the most hurtful things that can be done to a person and you conveyed that really well in this poem.

[Corrupted Rose]

Thank you. I appreciate your comment.

[Gee]

Never happened to me,thank God,but like the other reviewer has said it seems a common occurrence.I think the saying "familiarity breeds contempt" is so true.Anyway,enjoyed your poem and you're to young to be tied down,wait until you reach 30's.

[Corrupted Rose]

Thank you for the feedback. You're right. I am too young to be tied down, but heartbreak seems to be around every corner - tied down or not.

[Gee]

I'm afraid that's life at times,you just have to get even more out of the good times.Take care

[Corrupted Rose]

Very true. :)

I've seen the story written a thousand times here. It is a shame that some people don't realize what they have. Some growing up must first occur for most of them.

I also find it strange that such pretty girls write things like this, but I guess it happens to everyone at one time or another.

[Corrupted Rose]

Thank you for the review, Tim. It's true... It happens to everyone at one point in time. Pretty girls or handsome guys go through this because once someone gets them... They don't appreciate it anymore most of the time and that is simply how heartbreak usually falls into place.

[Bare Trees]

Oh, I can appreciate your point of view for sure. Sometimes the chase is better than the catch in their eyes.

[Corrupted Rose]

Yes that is what I believe also.
