please, excuse me.

If I could let the pain escape in twisted mangled words,

I would gladly let the words flow free to fly off with the birds.

You see it's not that easy to let go

when these words are all I have to show

for a love that left me empty

and you walked away with plenty

of me

 

you say i didn't take the time to see

you had more in your life than just me

but its not fair to place blame anymore

i just wanted to feel needed

and with you i felt completed

but with time that feeling faded

all that's left is feeling jaded

and hollow

 

i've always been the one to let something eat me alive

until i can no longer survive

the pain

thats when i learn 

to love and let go

cause without the pain you can't grow

to love a man more deserving

someone thats worth hurting

for

 

so please take the time to realize

all we had was not lies

and the truth is

and the truth is

i will always feel you here

i will always want you near

but the truth is

yes the truth is

i'm stronger now

with my chest hollowed out

i can't feel you

i can't need you

anymore

I don't want to just say I like this one, even though i do, i think it deserves more than just that. it actually flowed very great and i could relate to it a lot. I mean, i think i actually have a poem that it reminds me of. (: Keep it up, though. I like your writings.

Wow! That was very deep and emotional. Great write. There is only one typo that i see and that is "Someone one thats worth hurting for" no biggie :). I can see that this came from the heart and it made a great poem. Thanks for sharing. Hope to read more of your work soon.
