No matter

No matter how hard I tried

No matter how manyS tears I cried

No matter how many times I apologized

Or triedU to make amends

 

You'll never look Cat me the same

We will never go back

To the wayK they once were

Nothing I do will make a difference

 

 No mCatter how hard I try

No matter how many timOes I call your name

No matter hCow sorry I am

In my heKart

 

 The only thingW you see

When you look at me

Is pain

 

 We caHn never go back

We will neverObe friends

You will never sRee me the same

You will never acceptE me

 

 And I’m done trying to go back in time

I'm done trying to get your forgiveness

I'm done trying to get you to look at me

The way you used too

 

Because

No matter how hard I try

Or how hard I cry

We'll never be the same

Forgiveness is rough. I can relate so easy to this with my dad. Ive broken something that i know can never be fixed. I used to fret about it but I've come to see my efforts wont ever matter.

Also this was almost like a song in my head. The rhythm and flow was outstanding.

this is a great poem. It flows in such a way that breaks your heart. Great job!

A poem a lot of people will be able to understand. Some things are just like oil and water and will never mix, no matter how much you stir them. Thanks for sharing :)

AWWWWW... this made me sad... such a depressing write and I can relate so well! Forgiveness is hard for many. it's true.. no one likes getting hurt... even if it was unintentional... or accidently... still.. it's hard. Hate and anger drives us sometimes... doesn't help when the heart is hurting.. This is such a wonderful poem filled so much anguish and sorrow. Lovely write!!! thank you!

I totally know where you're coming from. I've recently gone through something like this with an ex of mine. When it comes to situations like this, sometimes it's better to accept it the way it is and move on.

Song lyrics, perhaps? They felt like they could be. I got the sense of a melody, strumming guitars for a sadder feel, or perhaps hard electric for an angrier feel. Could be cool.

Sorry for whatever experience brought you to write this. I hope things get better.

This is really sad, because most of us have been on one side or the other in a similar situation. Whatever the wrong was, it's hard to see a friendship or relationship fail. I have seen some recover from real betrayal, but most don't. Sometimes the only thing to do is learn and move on.

aww.. that's a sad and touching one...
i can truly relate to this. no matter what i do, there's just no way everything's gonna be okay. that things will never be the same again.
i like the way you put up with your words as direct as it can be. it brings out your emotions more effectively.
a very heartfelt write of yours, Sarah. thanks for sharing!! :)
