3 Strikes, Numb, Goodbye?

Contributed by ToriVeigh on Saturday, 20th December 2003 @ 10:50:55 AM in AEST
Topic: goodbyepoetry



3 strikes and I’m out
I think that’s enough
I’ll not scream or shout
I’ve had it with that stuff

It just doesn’t matter anymore
I’m tired of the pain
I hurt through to the core
I must have been insane

Why did I even try?
I know better than that
From a man, love’s always a lie
And once again, I fell in the trap

Love is too cruel
And the 3rd time’s the charm
I’ve been such a fool
And caused too much harm

It took lots of time and energy
And I’ve felt every word
I now see things more clearly
But feeling I can no longer afford

Analyzing my emotion
Has been such a waste
All though a pleasant notion
I acted in haste

I don’t want anyone to know
Not even myself
Once again, all feeling I’ll stow
I’ve put my heart back on the shelf

I don’t care who’s fault it is
To me, it’s all the same
Whether it’s mine or it’s his
It just causes pain

Cancun with you was a dream
But I shouldn’t have let myself care
No matter how great it can seem
Life’s truly just a nightmare

I’ve come back to reality
And remembrance has begun
All this feeling is insanity
So I’m going back to numb

For all that it’s worth
I really did try
But for the sake of my health
To Tori Veigh, it’s GOOD BYE!

I wish I could say it will get better.

Of course it will get better. It already has.

'From a man, love’s always a lie' *Winces* Ouch... Good write though. I have found never to say such a thing unless I fully meant it in the way I was saying it to the person. I learned that when I was very young. I hope things get better and you find an actual man instead of another little boy.

Sweetheart, I'm stuck in Frankfurt and I can do nothing but think of you. I can't get to my email because of limitations Delta puts on these computer. I thought I could contact you by leaving a messege on your poem. Hopefully you'll check it.

Merry Christmas.

Love you.

Michael
