I'm Moving On

I'm Moving On

 

Relationships really haven’t been my thing

I can never keep one for long

I either get hurt

Or I end up hurting them

 

My first one, well it wasn’t really one

For him, it was just a hook up

But for me, it was a lot more

Seems like that’s how it always is

 

I cried the hardest over him

He was the only one that has

Truly hurt my heart

But I’ve moved on

 

The next one, well it only lasted 6 months

Because he turned out to be weird

I thought he would become violent with me one day

So I had to break his heart

 

He wasn’t really what I wanted anyway

I cried in my mom’s arms that day

That was the first time I had to do that

But I’ve moved on

 

The one after that one, was by far the best one

He really was there for me

Well he did live in another state

And that’s why I had to let him go

 

I really needed someone here

He has become my best friend

I know I can count on him

And that’s made me move on

 

All after that I decided to stay single

And have a little fun

I started hooking up

Wasn’t me at all, I hated it

 

So I changed myself

Into someone I thought was smarter

Then falling for the games

But I was stupid

 

I met someone new

Someone completely different

He filled me with so many

Words, that turned into lies

 

He ended up cheating on me

The entire time we were together

We spend a whole month

Just to find out it was all for nothing

 

He didn’t even say goodbye

No phone call, no text, nothing

And everyone looks at me

With this confused face..

 

Because I don’t show hurt

At all, I’ve always been that way

I don’t show emotion well

I just don’t like people seeing me like that

 

They were all expecting me to cry

But I haven’t, not even a tear

I handle it my own way

That’s just me

 

I will admit I am hurt

But I can’t let it bring me down

Why cry, when it was his loss

Now I’m moving on..

This was well written, but heartbreaking. :(
I guess it's a part of life. The last stanza is the best, and it's so inspiring!
Keep moving on, no matter how bad things get. Just keep moving...things always get worse before they get better.
It's very well structured...and you tell us of heartbreak, sadness, and then getting back up.
Thanks for sharing.

Par for the course Im sad to say. But it is all part and parcel of the learning curve which teaches yoiu how to recognise the right one in due course.No matter how long you have to wait

[The Rock And Roll Cowbo..]

Good for you... someone like that is not worth your time... living well is the best revenge.

[Bette]

i like your point here. life isn't always good, its always going up and down

[Sunflower/Sara Kendrick]

I hope this is just a write to express some points about relationships and not real life...Interesting line or idea to hold it to cohesion..Keep the creative pen flowing. Sara

It's true. We really are vastly different. Most young guys wld run a marthon at the thought of 'being in a relationship', even when they were. The notion is beyond most of them them until they are about 28. There is no solution.

yeah i have a very similar lack of emotions but this sounded good i just got confused on one stanza

I really needed someone here
He has become my best friend
I know I can count on him
And that’s made me move on

i understand it now but i felt it killed the flow a lil bit cus i had to go back and reread a few times

i REALLY like this. i can relate to this so much. i fell in love with someone and i didnt mean anything to him, but he met the world to me. he lived in alabama (seven states away from me) and is 2 years older than me. turns out he cheated on me with BOTH of my best friends. haha i know you probably dont care, i just thought i would share :) i loved this
