![]() Where were you!A Poem by P. Kapper![]() I still hold this anger inside me. To lose someone you love but never had the courage to express your feelings to...it hurts. I loved her then, I love her now. She'll always be with me.![]() Why? Why should I believe? Others tell me to
have faith To trust in you But why? So you can fail me
again? Where were you? Not here Not when I needed you Not as my best friend The girl I loved My secret desire And my world Lay dying Dying in a hospital 17 years old And nobody NOBODY Can tell me there’s a
reason You have bigger plans There’s no reason! No need for someone
that young! Someone with so much
hope So much promise So much life ahead of
her No reason for you to
take her! I prayed And prayed And prayed For what? You stole her from me From her family From everyone who
ever loved her Why? Yes, my lessons were
learned Was that your goal? Teach me a lesson? I got the point! Yes, I learned To tell them Tell people how I
feel And they do know But I learned another Never NEVER Trust in you You don’t answer
prayers I was faithful Faithful to you And you knocked me to
my knees You punished me For what? Some sick, demented
humor? You’re selfish! What do you need WHAT From a beautiful 17
year old girl With a full life
ahead of her Huh? Tell me! Exactly! You’ve got nothing! I’ve carried this
with me Long enough And I’m tired And I’m weakened And no I will not Find my strength in
you You made me weak You made me this way But you know
something? I’m finding my
strength And not in you! In two beautiful
children And a life I’ve made
for myself And I’ve made it by
believing Not in you! In me! So this is where we
stand I’m done with you You did your damage You took her from me And I suffered Everyone suffered And I never got the
chance Not while she was
alive Never told her I
loved her Never held her close Never kissed away her
fears Never kissed away her
tears Never held her tight You took her from me! Took her for
yourself! You wanted her And you did what you
had to do to get her And you haven’t been
forgiven And I haven’t
forgotten I still live with the
pain And it’s you! You self-righteous
b*****d! Who caused it Where were you? When I needed you! Where were you? When I spoke to you! Nowhere Nowhere to be found I gave all of myself
to you And you turned your
back On everything Everything that
mattered to me Yes, I’ve moved on But I haven’t
forgotten Haven’t forgiven And never will! © 2013 P. Kapper |
