The years fly by these days, like an eagle swooping down to catch it’s pray.

 

I stay in the shadows, restless. Relentlessly waiting, for a chance, to clean up my messes.

 

I want to turn back time but how? It’s a  little to late right now.

 

It’s all over, it’s done, it’s through. My time, my pain, my love for you.

 

I’ve made mistakes to many to add. I yelled, and screamed and made you mad.

 

I loved you so much I didn’t want this to end. Is loving to much a sin?

 

I’m not the only one at fault here. You have faults also my dear.

 

You never loved me, not now not ever. You said it but you’re a liar.

 

You pulled my strings with remotes and a lever. You used me to get whatever you

desire.

 

What do you want baby? What do you want Dear. That’s the only words you ever wanted to hear.

 

You received your way and tossed me aside. Without even a courtesy lie.

 

There was no, ”its not you its me”. It was just “it’s you, goodbye, be free”.

 

I don’t think the pain will ever leave. Even as I write my thoughts down I grieve.

 

Over the losses I receive. They always say, “It will get better if you just believe”.

 

I have my eyes closed shut, I can’t see. My eyes are shut so I can see me.

 

See what I’m about on the inside. Let my soul shine bright and not hide.

 

I’m in for a long ride. To find out what I decide.

 

Should I let it out?

 

Scream and shout

 

Should I keep it in and let the evil grow

 

Until one day I blow.

 

You should lock me up for the thoughts I have.

You did a good job to convey your feelings and what was going through your mind. Also, I think you tried a bit too hard to rhyme. If you're writing a poem and you can't seem to make it rhyme, my best bet is just to Free Verse. But overall, you did an amazing job on the poem. You do have a few spelling errors, but I believe you can improve upon them given time.

I'm sorry she did. But remember, it's been nearly a year now, so what's done in the past, stays in the past. Keep your head up and keep striving forward.

I really did like the poem. My one complaint is that the rhymes seemed forced. I don't think it was necessary to make the rhymes happen. But you did do a good job of conveying how you felt.
