"a not [so fine romance]"

i keep telling you "no"

you demand to say "yes"

i. am. telling. you. "NO"

 

my heart has been bruised

my heart is still tender;can't you see....

why can't you let me be;let me heal...

why won't you give me time;that's really what i need...not a "love" to come rushing to 'save the day'

time.healing.processing feelings-ever heard of that....

 

....i just cried yesterday

and my heart...

... it's crying now listening to you..it thinks you are lying to me right now

 

my heart has heard before...

....all of the loose non-sense that's falling out of your mouth
 with the last "love" i knew forever was ours

now my heart and my tear-filled eyes are begging to differ....if that was so,

why is my heart bleeding all over this write

where are you now....

...my bed empty

oh. wait-there are some tear-stained pillows

 

"i'll never hurt you," is said

my ears hear- "i will leave you just as soon as you fall in love with me."

my heart cries- "please, no, please not again, i am so tired and empty."

 

i......don't. have. the. en-er-gy to feel this again

i refuse.

i absolutely say "to hell with love."

 

does love sound good-in theory, yeah

do i believe you-i want to some how.......

.....but you dare attempt to minimize my feelings one. more. time.

i promise you i will never again speak with you

 

do.NOT.tell me to pull up my boot straps,when you can't even fit my boots

i despise you when you tell me your stories: "oh, i just got over it and moved on, what happened is done", or "you think she's crying over you right now..."

my grief, is MINE;i will process in MY own time;not yours

these feelings, yes again, are MINE..........

 

know that i won't be confiding in you any longer...

it always seems to lead to trouble

us, be friends-not possible

not when you're actions are readily available to screw me over

 

pretend that you've broken my heart already,

because in all honesty you have already...

...same words, different face..pretty smile, same lies...

my new favorite piece by you.
seriously.
it has such depth and emotion.
i can really feel where you're coming from and it hurts me to know that you felt this way and so do a million other people.
really.
an incredible, incredible job.
i absolutely love it.
nice job.

the point is clear and well written...some issues with punctuation, but I am no expert in that...a great read
