"I Regret We Had To Die This Way"

A poem I wrote a long time ago in the perspective of having someone so close to you, and loving them so much, you grow to hate them, and vice-versa. Yet, you cannot live without them...

I regret we had to die this way,

But where else could we turn..

It's best if we just fade way,

And let our past together burn...

I will think about you often,

All the times we shared..

I will remember what you've said me,

And all the ways we cared..

You reached out to me,

As I reached out for you..

You threw your little tantrums,

And I know I threw some too..

We had our good times and bad,

We made each other bruised and broken..

And there are times that I regretted

That we had ever even spoken...

There were times when I felt

That you were my only friend..

And now I see our bridges burning, 

And I see now, my friend, this is our end..

I hate you

I love you

I miss you

I dis you...

You love me

You hate me

You dis me

You miss me...

Our relationship,

Call it what you will..

Was just a sickened carousel...

It was a bitter pill...

Writing this now...

The sadness fills me up..

My eyes cascade with all these tears,

I think I'll just give up...

I'm done with all these things...

Putting my heart out there for all to see...

So I'll share these things with no one...

I'll let things wither, die, and just be...

I regret we had to die this way,

Along with the pieces of my heart..

I regret we had to fall this way..

Our souls all torn apart..

In all these things,

I wish you luck in your life...

I'll think of you forever...

And forget you...

...never...

This is amazing.. So true of so many relationships..

"I hate you
I love you
I miss you
I dis you..."

There is an old song by the Carpenters called "hurting each other" that these lines called to mind.. Why is it sometimes we love so hard that we cant help hurting and hurting the one we love.. Well done poem.. shallimarRose
