Can This Really Be The Final Goodbye?

How much can I take

And what can i do

I've told you just how much

I love you

Every day

I say it again

I'm here for you always

If you'd let me in

Maybe I want someone for me

Maybe I don't care

Maybe my own story just couldn't compare

What if you saw me

Inside my heart

You'd see that I'm broken

With multiple scars

Call me dramatic

For I do not care

Was feeling down last night

Tears rolled down my cheeks

I got a text from you saying

Help me, help me please

Three hours I spent

Trying not to cry

Cheering you up

Though you wouldn't tell me why

I decided one day

That I'd let you

Told you about a razor that cut my skin

You rolled your eyes and laughed at my story

You told me to stop making things all about me

In my room I cried

Knowing that maybe I was doomed

Maybe I'd continue loving

Without you loving me too

You saw me as a friend

Someone you wouldn't care to loose

maybe to you.

I'm just an old pair of shoes

But if you looked at me now

Would you see the same girl

It's been only a few weeks and I'm ready to hurl

That fateful day when you chose

Shut the door on her, shut it closed

You told me I'm condescending

Selfish and mean

And suddenly lost track of all the times I was there

Standing by your side

I remember the times

You pointed your finger

And locked me inside

Still I do not hate you

Though I get told you

I'm emotionally unstable

I relied on you

Every day you ignore me

You stab me inside

I should let go now,

Maybe I'd be glad

But there are some things I just can't do

And one of them is letting go

Of a friend like you...

Thank you for entering.

I too have been in a situation where a love so strong is impossible to let go of, even if the other person involved does not always share your feelings it is important to cherish them regardless, which it sounds like you have.

I can only hope the marks of self infliction you mention are fabricated, but something tells me they are not. It is amazing the hold that another human being can have and sometimes they can be the reason we harm ourselves, even if they do not mean to be.

Love will find you in the end.
Do not give up hope.

Sometimes, we have no choose.
"But there are some things I just can't do
And one of them is letting go
Of a friend like you."
The above lines are best for us. Thank you my friend for sharing the excellent poetry.

I can understand your emotions. Its really hard to let go the one whom we love deeply and I loved the way you put words to reflect your emotions!
