Love of Despair

This is about a girl who wanted to marry her boyfriend but was cheated on by him and was hurt.

You told me that you loved me

That was all lies

You tore my heart out of my chest

Squeezing it, watching it bleed

 

I was vulnerable

So I trusted you

You took advantage of me

Love is just a word used to hurt

 

I watched you walk away

You left me bleeding

Now I lay on the ground

Pleading to die; for I cannot live

 

With every kiss, you stole my soul

With every hold, you drank my blood

You left me with scars of your love

There's no point of life if I am not alive

 

My eyes are darkness

My soul is black

There are scars on my arms

There's no turning back

 

I'm an empty shell

There's nothing left of me

My bones are broken

I have been forgotten

 

The Devil did his job

He showed me you

Now I feel the fiery pits of death

You killed death, there's nothing left

 

 

 

 

Author's Note

I wrote this poem after my boyfriend broke up with me. I was sad, so I wrote this. I hope that you will post great reviews.

I wouldn't know what its like to get hurt like that cause I've never had a boyfriend, but I've gone through it in my family. Beautiful Poem. Keep it up!

[Calypso]

And this is why I'll never date. Men are beasts, animals. The only man I truly love is my brother!

[Shep]

Remind me never to break your heart. Such a wound will never heal soul. Love the poem it has great pasion. Nicely done.

[~Blue Fantasy~]

Very sad and full of emotions! Breakups are rough but in your case this was really bad according to your not at the top. So very sorry I can feel your pain from this poem!

[Knoxxeh]

"You killed death, there's nothing left" I like this line and how it tied up the poem talking about a very bad breakup and somone using or cheating on the other and agian you never said you wanted to kill yourself you said they wanted to die very good im liking the structure of your poems also

hello . i was recommended to read this poem by PrincessZeldaWannabe , so i took a look and what can i say - your poem has so much balance and much essence but it doesn't drive it to the full but what does is the emotional and the heart in the centre and there's some well - written metaphors . great poem

[C.A.Jordon]

great metaphors this is a well written review. any one that has aloud themselves to love can relate.

[Margarette]

Great metaphors you have here! Actually, you got me going in the last stanza. Having a breathless phrase like "killed death" is very entrancing. Keep writing!

The Devil did his job
He showed me you

Very nice work here. Imagery,flow and content are nicely arranged. I really like the fifth stanza as well.
