ABANDONED

What happened to "for better or for worse,til death do us part"

We met when we were young

Stung by love, we fit perfect, like a glove

You told me you would never abandon me

We were meant to be, at least that's what it felt like to me

We encountered many trials and tribulations

Which in fact strengthened our bond

As time went by, I could feel your love fade away 

I thought you were my queen

Unannounced, randomly, you abandoned me

I gave you my life, in return you thrust a knife into my heart

Now its beats are far apart

I stand alone on a rainy day, watching myself decay

I wish we never met

I wish I could press reset to forget.......

Author's Note

You could have told me to my face, not through a text. How cowardly of you! This happened years back. I'm over it.........

[Deron Alexis]

OMG the wait is over i was waiting on you to write a bare hearted piece full of feels ....the lines really get out what was felt just continue to roll with it.... more feels = more diverse words= vivid ideas keep it up bro

[Rob Santana]

Deron!!!!!! What's up bro. You had to go back and pull out an old one didn't you , hahaha it's all good.

[Deron Alexis]

lol good to hear from you and see that you're still writing

[Matching Socks]

This stings... What happened to for better of worse. Good question.
Sad when you invest time in a relationship and it ends. But... Good thing is there are plenty more opportunities out there, right? Tell me I'm right.

[Rob Santana]

Ha, yes Ana you are right. You are definitely right, you're too sweet, and yes it does suck. But oh well, moving on!!!

[Matching Socks]

Yup, moving on!! Next!

[Rob Santana]

Yup, now accepting applications!

[Matching Socks]

And testimonials.

I know this feeling, though the one who did it to me just slipped away without saying a word. Great stuff. Emotionally powerful.

[Rob Santana]

I'm so glad I don't feel like this anymore. Tuff times. I never want to feel like this again.

[Lyn Anderson]

You and me both, you and me both.:)

I expected a dark poem when I clicked, and it is dark but a different kind of dark from what I thought I was going to get. But I really like it, not that you had this pain, but the way you expressed it. Who the hell's sends a text to say goodbye-- seriously? that's harsh. I see you wrote this months ago so hope all is better now.

[Rob Santana]

S**t I was like "ABANDONED?" WTF? I forgot I wrote this piece, haha. Yes things are better now, I forgot I wrote this so all is well, well not all well but well enough. f**k that was to many "wells" Oh it was my WIFE that send me that text when I was truckin' down the highway. Fucked up right? haha. Whatever......

[Dye]

Let me start by saying WELL, that's messed up.

[Rob Santana]

f****n eh it is!!!!! Like I said, whatever.... I don't have time to be begging anyone to stick around.

[Yellow Butterfly]

There's that dark side to love that has a way of rearing it's ugly head...when we least expect it too. I'm sure it's not a reset button that's needed here.. I'd say it's a time machine... to turn back time...to go back to protect our hearts from harms way..

I've seen a softer side to you Creeper... and it's oh so scarily sweet.. :O)

[Rob Santana]

What a touching comment Butterfly, you have a beautiful honest heart. ;)

[Yellow Butterfly]

Your welcome Mr C... to be honest... you did creep me out when I first came across your work... but now.... I know your just a cool guy... with a eclectic mind...:O)

Thanks for accepting my friends request too :O)

[Yellow Butterfly]

*an eclectic* typooooooooo ooooh lol

[Rob Santana]

hahaha, I understand. Yes I'm just a regular guy who loves life and family. But on the flip side I like horror, haha. Oh and I like cookies and milk. (secret: I'm a cookie bandit ;) NO THANK YOU for the friend request......

[Yellow Butterfly]

I guess we are both 'welcome' lol :O)

[Jack Reaper]

well that was different from you.. i can really feel the beauty in the beginning, and the agony as it slipped away. i know exactly how this one feels, ive been there myself. though, not through a text, my god thats just cowardly!! but, our past makes us into what we are and enables us to learn from the experience.

[Rob Santana]

That's right Jack. Thanks brother.

[Lily Mae]

Man.. the old reset button.. seriously why is it we can't have one? I want one now lol.. excellent write as always..xo

[Rob Santana]

If I ever find one I will pass it over to you when I'm done with it, haha I promise.

[minisla]

Man that is tough

[Rob Santana]

Haha, I'm over it. Thanks for the read.

[Frieda P]

A freaking text, really...and your entire life changes. Sometimes I hate modern technology. Feel your pain in this rant of a poem.

[Rob Santana]

Can you believe that s**t!!! Haha. Thanks Frieda.
