she ain't coming back

poem written after relationship ended with the first girl i ever loved

from the lies and the sex

going through text

lack of respect

knowing that it was over

still crushed when you left

feeling like it was wrong to do

still i longed for you

pick up the phone

dial like 6 numbers the whew!

close call almost called you that time

honestly want nothing more than ta have you out of my mind

a strong man can't understand why I can't shake this

creating make shift relationships

going through boxes of latex

still nothin

the real of it is its still love in my heart

I'll process it to progress and then start

ta live for me

we fell in love then it fell apart

she took a piece of my heart

trying ta find love in a dark cold world

ol girl had me sprung like joe torey

but my stories the same as yours

so don't cry for me

its life

we take the lumps in with times that was jumpin

when I say I understand, understand that i was frontin

my pride won't let you know

its too hard to let it go

please God grant me peace of mind

and take what I don't

need

like the bitterness, resentment

relentless attack on my thoughts and how it ended

we intended on the picket fence

we was pickin fights

hard pill to swallow my ex walked right out of my life

and she ain't comin back

It is hard to move forward after a relationship is over, especially if you are the one that did not end it. Usually by the time someone leaves they are already over it, but for the one left behind they are in shock and it takes time to process their own feelings about it. I thought this was a heart felt depiction of the one left standing there. Keep writing.
