I keep holding on

About a girl who loves a guy, and that guy pushes her to the side.

It's early in the morning and my salty tears are still pouring from my eyes
All I do is cry and picture you in my head
My empty bed feels worse than bricks
I was not pretending when I said, "I Love You"
Apparently you were, weren't you?
I want to cut out my broken bruised heart
Rip myself open and release my soul
I just want to disappear when you're not near
It hurts to love you
You still are my favorite pain
I keep tasting you lingering on my chapped lips
I am trying to break apart
Like how you broke my heart
It is hard to leave the past behind
When you are not near
How do I pretend I do not need you?
Make me believe everything will be better than ok
My broken heart pieces still miss you
My emotions are fragile, I still need you
Why does love hurt and feel wonderful at the same time?
Because spelled backwards it's evol.
I still wait for you because I'm in love with you
No matter what I do, I can not forget us
Why do you have to be gone for so long?
Every breath without you, hurts more than a gunshot
Because at least the gun could end the pain.

Aw, so sad. I like this, only because i know someone who puts up with her boyfriend's attitudes, and mostly his temper, if only to have someone who says "I love you". :/ Anyways, this was very realisitic, and relatable. Thanks for sharing!

Strong and beautiful words. Remind me of music. Hard to be close and so far away. Love and friendship is hard to maintain. In the end. Friends are who we are going to need in a life.

No matter what I do, I can not forget us"

Ah the broken young heart it has to be experienced to be appreciated thing is it doesnt lend itself too well to sharing as only one can truly appreciate the pain of it

Great sad poem. I loved how you emphasized some parts.

Your write is filled with such a sense of pain and loss. I do like the honesty and imagery, but relate all too well to the topic. Excellent piece.

Yes it would end the pain, but life goes on in time. Life in your blood will return and things will change. Life is like the seasons. It changes and someday you'll be stronger. Keep writing and keep expressing your emotions.
