I hope you guys don't mind me using the board to vent. This next poem is untitled, just some feelings.
**
Your lips pressed and were as stone
Words blew like paper within the storm
My soul aches beneath the bone
Like misplaced coldness among the warm
I gave you my soul
Wrapped in the innocense of youth
Dripping with hope and need
Seeking some sort of Truth
I gave you all I had to give
Remembering your sweet kiss upon the lip
You were the reason, I thought I had to live
My Heart; now broken in the cage above my hip
I wanted you to love me... as you loved him
Yet no trust; only pain came from these years
My love for you was filled to the brim
I could’ve fed a nation with the salt of my tears
But slowly, your kisses became curses
Your promises; empty lies
My dreams became nightmarish verses
My smiles became cries
You used me for my age and need to feel love
And at first, I didn’t believe; so into your lies- I dove
And though I pray to the stars above
I still can’t release myself from the web you’ve wove
I had denied myself to please you
Now ashamed of who I’ve become
I gave you a broken heart, for you to make anew
But you tore out my soul and left me numb
And though you have left, I’m not yet free
The damage is done, and I struggle to live
Begging, hoping that one day you’ll see
That you’ve destroyed the only love I had to give!
