Heart Breaker

I wrote this poem when I made the decision to move away from my Ex, who wanted me to stay near him as a friend, while he was with another girl. He read this and asked if I meant it- how could he ask?

Heart Breaker
SheaRyhai © 2011

Tides are turning
I am learning
Not to trust in anyone.
They are lying
No denying
Russian roulette with a gun.

It’s enough that
You regret that
You ever took a chance on me.
And I’m trying
To stop crying
So that you can be happy.

You don’t have anything I want.
I don’t have anything you need.
So say “goodbye”
Or “see you later”
Every promise that was made.
Every lie will be repaid.
You're a Heart Breaker. .
You’re a Heart Breaker !

All those memories
Burning through me
At the coldness of your touch.
Well I’m sorry
To make you worry
And that my love was not enough.

Say you love me
As you push me
In every direction but to you.
Say you want me
As you leave me
You’re only making me confused.

You don’t have anything I want.
I don’t have anything you need.
So say “goodbye”
Or “see you later”.
There is no point in asking how
When I see you running to her now.
You’re a Heart Breaker. .
You’re a Heart Breaker !

I think I saw this at one point on Quizzy... hm. *reareads anyway*
Cohesive formatting and enough emotion to make this poem... how do I say this... tangible enough for the reader to relate to it. You did your feelings back then justice, Shea. :) Keep up the good work.

They are very few poems which I can honstly say I like, and would be willing to read. But this one seems so real! It's easy to realte to the emotion it's written with, even if you have never felt it (like me).
Good job!

I am intrigued! Great poem! You said it! I know where you are coming from, love you hate you thing. It does come from life experience.
