After Love
October 6, 2016
One happy but
lost
Girl…
The story began with proper love or saying NO!
An “I love you” or letting go…
This is what we call a life lesson or a BULLET in the heart.
I was disappointed in myself.
I didn’t realize the pain until after.
How could we go on loving someone who gives us the present that feels like a punch in the gut?
Was it me or my imagination?
The joy, the smooth taste without the sugar,
But...the dying stress, cheap thrills and smiles.
Now I have to be done, AFTER LOVE.

This poem is based off the hurt and struggle of a relationship and what it feels like to be in a relationship thats just one sided or having to give up someone you love but they don't feel the same.
