I've known so many guys
Who turned out to be real losers.
I went ahead and let myself fall
Until I got hurt by you.
I must decide how I want to live
If I want it to be with you or not.
But the only thing I can think of
Is all the hurt inside.
You know you're wrong for doing this
I just want to get you back.
My broken heart is weeping loud
All because you hurt me so bad.
I'll never let myself fall again
For I've come to learn your ways.
I've grown to be a mature woman
I've learned to control my emotions.
You said I'd never find anyone better
But I know I can do this.
My foolishness has run dry
I pray you will leave me alone.
I'm leaving now, I won't be back
I'm going to find me somebody new.
I can't take this, I've had enough
I'm sick of always feeling blue.
You said you loved me all the time
Even when we fought.
But I didn't know if you meant it
Or what you really thought.
I cared for you with all my heart
But now I only want us to be apart.
Please, if you will just go away
And don't ever come back.
This is another poem I wrote during those dark times in high school. I wrote this one after that surprise visit from the ex. I'm so glad I don't have to feel that way anymore. :)
