VEDHEAD27 motivated me to start posting my poetry/lyrics since I hadn't done it for over a year now.

Here is one I wrote last year. Enjoy!:)

~*~*~

You say distance kept us apart,
Who am I to argue with that

Who said love can grow from both directions,
Am I hopeless to think that?

Shadows begin to fall upon my wall,
As my realizations come to life

Thinking things, clarity with time,
Talking to myself,
Figuring out where I went wrong

She is NOT better than me,
They tell me,
She is here, and you are there

Ruined everything we had,
As it goes down the drain

If love is like this,
I don't want any part of it anymore

I am just a ploy,
As she is your world and my replacement

Good-bye to you

    post some more, meddle
    You ask me to enter
    But then You make me crawl
    And I can't be holding on
    To what You got
    When all You've got is hurt
    ----
    Underneath this smile lies everything
    All my hopes and anger, pride and shame
  • I think you were wise to take VEDHEAD27's advice. :) Hope to see some more from ya! :)

    Nadia....very glad you decided to come over here! Very nice!

    This poem is so real. I definitely feel it as if I was going through the very same thing. It's pretty heartbreaking, but the last line "good-bye to you" creates this hopeful feeling for me....closure, coming to terms with everything, being done with the pain, questioning etc.

    Again, good work. I hope to see more from you around here as well. :)

    AWWWW ALL of you are TOO sweet!! What a delight to go to the PJ forum and see 7 responses to this thread! You guys TRULY made my day!! :)

    I LOVE you all!! :D And don't worry, this girl isn't going to stop posting...I have a lot of them!;)

    Thanks jammergurl, violet ray, BeingEnlightened (who i haven't seen in a while :D), Ali, and bossman3188...just by you guys responding, you have inspired me to write more.:)

    Lydi, thank you, you know where I was at last year when that happened, my first ever break-up was really hard on me. I actually wrote the 1st half when i got the news, and 2nd half when I was coming to terms with everything. I guess that is why it felt that way :)Thanks for being that constant support for me ever since day 1:)

    and Meredith, awww I am sorry if I made you cry at work:( and yes, there will be more heartbreaking poems, and some happy ones i think:/

  • Thank you for sharing meddle

    Writing is by far the most theraputic and healthiest way of expressing/dealing with any sort of emotional pain.....be it breakup, loss of a loved one, etc etc

    Thanks again for posting and don't be shy to post again
