Deleting You

We've seen each other at school,
I never knew who you were
until you added me on facebook,
you started talking,
and we haven't stopped talking
since

I thought you were different,
you came up and introduced
yourself to me in person,
you made me feel like
no other guy has made me feel,

But on the computer,
you're a completely different person
talking in ways that I can't
comprehend,
ignoring me when I want to chat,
I want to get to the bottom of this
surely you understand

I guess you don't, you only want
one thing,
and  one thing only
but I'm not ready to give that up
especially not to you,
when I hardly even  know you

So I'm deleting you
and never looking back,

You can avoid me in the halls,
and deny what you tried to do to me,
but you can't live in denial
for the rest of your life

I'm deleting you,
and better yet I'm blocking you,
and when you look my way
I'll stare you down,
so you can live in the guilt
that you tried to make me
feel for you,

You'll never become my friend again,
you selfish low life!
I can't believe I trusted you

At least I deleted you from my life
before you won "the game"...

Author's Note

This did not happen to me, I was watching a news special about guys harassing girls on facebook, its horrible but I was inspired by it to write this.

I love this write. It tells a good story, and I find that that is lacking in alot of poetry. Good for you for finding something to write a touching poem about that is unique! I like the way you tell the story throught the poem too, the wording is excellent!

[guiltyascharged]

Awww! I loved this. I hate guys like that and it kinda happened to me before ):

It is a relief to delete dead weight always....nice poem!

[Max]

I like the incorporation of the whole facebook thing, and the idea that blocking someone on facebook is essentially the ultimate "F*ck You!" :P

Good poem :)

[Judy Ponceby]

Brilliant job of showing the downside of how some use the internet to hurt others. You wrote this in such a great relateable way. I hope so many people read this and understand how to be strong and not let someone else hurt them like this. :) Awesome!

[Suzy Q]

[TJ]

[Zeitgeist Manifesto]

Nothing better than watching the pwnage of a scumbag....

[Sylo's Rose]

very nice. lots of emotion and are you sure it hasnt happened to you before?

[Blue Moon Ice Cream]

You could have fooled me that this didn't actually happen to you! I was completely convinced that it was written from experience because of the venom and emotion behind her words.
