To YOU

I’ve cried one too many times,
And she two too many tears,
I sit here and ask myself why would I
Want to be with you for years.

For seven months I tried to hold onto
What wasn’t ment to be,
I did everything I could,
But you failed to see.

You pushed me away,
Told me I couldn’t stay.
I tried to force my love upon you,
Just to be rejected too.

Now it’s time for me to go,
To where I do not know.
Some place far away,
Where I can feel no more pain.

I loved you with all my heart,
I felt as if nothing could tear us apart.
But this time I failed to see,
That you didn’t love me.

I wrote this poem about my ex-boyfriend that I was tired of being hurt by, and finally decided to move on.
