Just a poem

You were never there 
So why should I care? 
Your opinion should mean nothing to me.
Yet I feel like a child
Small and afraid
I don't understand 
Why you make me feel this way
I should ask you to leave
I should say "go away"
Yet somewhere deep inside
I want you to stay
All the pain that you've caused
I still hold in my heart
And hope that one day 
You'll understand your part
You never said you're sorry
You don't think you've done wrong
I doubt you ever will
I've known this all along
I just want to know you love me
Is that too much to ask?
But it seems that you've moved on 
And left me in the past.

Poetry is therapeutic

I wrote the following poem about my feelings toward someone in my life. A person who has hurt me repeatedly...read if you dare.

You said goodbye
You walked away
You left love for another day
Even though you knew what was on the way

You weren't there
I never knew
I had someone else
Who were you
To walk back in after walking out
You have no idea  what this is all about

I needed you, but you werent there
You never tried
You didn't care
A child left wondering,
So confused
How could you love one and not the other,
How did you choose?
