She Never Did

She Never Did

A Poem by Johanna
"

"He puts the pictures in a box, can´t look anymore at what he lost..."

"

They’re all spread across the floor

Memories of before

They used to hang on his wall

He took them down

 

He has tried to rip them apart

The way she ripped up his heart

He tried to burn them in the ashtray

Like he let love burn away

But he can´t

 

She is smiling, bright eyes

Before the tears, before the light dies

She cried, tried to apologize

As she said goodbye

Goodbye

 

He puts the pictures in a box

Can´t look anymore at what he lost

He bought a ticket, she said no

Told him to just let her go

Why?

 

She took his heart with her

Said she could not be his future

It still beats, despite being in pieces

It was love, no matter how she sees it

Still is

 

It doesn’t matter what she said

All his letters that she never read

He sent them after her when she fled

They all returned

He put them in the box under the bed

They all returned

She never did

All his letters that she never read... Once again you did an awesome job here... well i was just planning to log out but i thought to read your one more write :P cuz, you writes're really very nice and smoothly penned. Keep it up dear frnd, you're hitting the goal. All lines're written right from the bottom of your scented heart. Great job once again. 100/100, you deserved :)

Out of every poem you've ever written this one invokes the greatest imagery; it's difficult to believe that you didn't actually live this yourself, as strong as the illustration is.

Remarkable job, Jo, really good ; )

Nice work, it describes how the character in the poem ripped and stole his heart out and he knows it.

nicely done. Very good emotion through-out. But mostly I was struck by how you were able to tell both sides of the story from the one view point. good job!
