Why I'm not the same

Contributed by holderofthestone on Saturday, 19th March 2005 @ 01:18:59 PM in AEST
Topic: EmotionalPoetry



What you receive back,
Is the sum of what you’ve put in,
From what you’ve taken out.
Your actions, your words…
Are all taken into account
It all adds up…
Everything you thought I never saw,
All those times you faltered...
The list is huge,
But not on my side…
Look at your actions,
Look how I’ve cried.
All those times we struggled…
Or should I say “ I “ struggled…
Because I never did those things,
I didn’t act that way,
I never wanted that from you,
And I didn’t deserve it…
I gave you my all…
All the time…
Everything I could,
Even when I didn’t want to,
And my kindness wasn’t returned.
I tried so hard… I really did…
To just forgive and forget…
But no matter how hard I try,
I can’t…

Why couldn’t you just give me,
What I gave to you…
That’s all I ever asked…
That’s all you had to do…

"Emotional Poetry" indeed, holder. This (as so many of yours do) begs to be heard. The last four lines in particular are quite simply painful to read.

And again... I'm sighing.


Another sleepless poet,

Very powerful espically the last 4 lines. Good write; like how you have everything come together with those last 4 lines. Can't wait to read more of your poems
