A Letter to You
A tear slowly drips
from my eye to my pillow.
I ache inside.
I've lost all pride.
I feel paralyzed
unable to move from my bed.
I've been nothing but kind
but you left me behind.
You're special to me
but I mean nothing to you.
I poured out my heart
and you tore it apart.
I hate to see you hurt.
You deserve better.
I care for you so much
and you left me in the dust.
The reality is you love her not me.
Whether I want to face it or not
I have to let you go.
I just thought you should know
I love you.

When I wrote this I was an emotional mess. I was a naive teen who thought she was in love. This poem isn't based on one particular person but multiple people. Looking back on this I can see clearly now what I couldn't before, I was in love with the idea of them. They made me feel special, they listened to me, and told me I was beautiful. Little did I know they had their own agenda.
One of my hopes for those who read this peom is that they might relate in some way to my words. I think there comes a time in all our lives where we go through a situation like this whether we be the heartbreaker or the heartbroken. It's important during times like these that we step back and take a look at the bigger picture. It may take some time for our eyes to adjust, however, we might just realize what we were missing all along.
