Don't Go..
by me

I know that it's over,
but I don't want you to leave,
I know that this love isn't sufficient
to satisfy all your needs.

Maybe there is nothing that
I could say to ever make you stay,
maybe this love was made to fail,
but I'm gonna say what I'm
going to say.

I don't want you to go.
I want you to stay.
Even though I can't explain,
I know that you feel the same way.

I don't know how or if things
would ever work out,
but I know that I've been miserable
without.

don't go..

Triumph!

Harrowing defeat
Destruction of soul
Piteous sorrow
No sight of a goal

Desperation in plight
Anxiety controlled
Caused me to seek
For answers untold

Hidden from sight
Yet the touch is so real
When to my God
I did appeal

The gnarly cross
Of shame and defeat
Carried my Saviour
Jesus, elite

He rose from the dead
Conquering shame
Now takes our hand
We too, live again

Once burdened with shame
And a hideous past
This wonderful Savior
Frees us at last

Life is now new
The old gone away
A miracle for which
I give thanks every day

Life now so precious
My soul does rejoice
I know who I am

With Jesus, my choice

Fooled Yourself
by me


I just needed to get my heart
out there, so at least I got
my chance to say it,
because at least I meant it.

You think you fooled me
but the truth is you made
a massive fool of yourself,
trying to make me look like
a fool.

I'm right aren't I?

I'm not trying to make you look
like a fool, but I knew from
the start you saw me as a target, a fool.
Wasn't as easy as you thought was it?
I'm really thankful God kept me safe
from doing something I know would
have hurt me, he kept me safe from you.
You're just mad because you
failed at whatever it was you were suppose to do.

I meant it when I said I loved you though,
that parts real. That's why it hurts so much.

So I don't believe you're sad,
or broken, or that you even love me.
I really want to though..
because I love you,
it's also a shame that I know
what love is.

I don't want to hear your response,
or your reply or how your fake feeling,
I know its not real.
You lost...

I don't want to hear your goodbyes,
or that you loved me,
because it's fake anyway,
I don't want to know that you're sad.

So. I said my peace, and my heart.

Goodbye

Only fooling yourself if
Think your just fooling me,

Why do have to respond to what I say
If you don't really want me in your life?

Why do you run to me
When you're hurting?

Why me?

Why do you think you have
A right to be angry?

I wanted to move on
I want to do the right thing

You said you love me
but you won't even try
You do not have the right
To cry over this
So don't

If it is over then
Leave me alone

out-do, or Love-IN?!?!
It doesn't make a difference, and I'm tired of fighting, I'm tired of trying. There is nothing there anymore.

More like out done.

Overdone, I'm done. I need to stop being stupid and just stay done.

not outdone, when I'm flustered I tend to misspell things, (excuse)

Good poem. Clearly speaking some truth to yourself there, even though it hurts since you love(d) him. It is hard facing reality sometimes, knowing it wasn't equally met from the other side. *Hugs*

you have no idea what it was like.. Or what it is like.
try denying something that's been bothering you for almost a decade without stopping.
I have prayed to God to always show me the truth of the situation, because I don't fully understand it.
it hurts like hell, because it seemed like it was me equally, or maybe apart of me is lying to myself.

It's selfish.

Its just me wanting to be the only one who was heartbroken, which is probably not true.
I don't want to know if he was sad because it would make me feel bad..Sometimes it's better not knowing, especially since there is nothing that can be done about it.

I may not know what you've gone through, but I know what I have gone through and still are going through in my own life. And sometimes one can relate with what you write in poems, maybe not always in the way you went through it, but one can look at it seen through one's own life experiences.

There may also be times where you can manage putting yourself in other people's shoes and try seeing it from their point of view without having gone through the exact same experiences too.

That others try to bring you encouragement, comfort or understanding through what you have experienced in your life is something you should gladly take in as something uplifting to you rather than feeling offended or upset by it.

Sorry...

I'm blatantly feels like your poking at my wound rather than being uplifting. t's hard to hear people repeat all the painful stuff I tell myself everyday. I'm pretty selfish.

It blatantly feels like you're poking at the wounds rather than being uplifting. I understand that it is no longer my own when I post it, and that people do relate, but it is hard to hear people repeat painful stuff I say.
I am just being selfish with my writing.

I didn't see it this way, just tried being understanding towards you. If you can relate to some parts or fully, you will sometimes bring up things which may seem still painful to you, although if one feels understood by others it should be more helpful than feeling hurt by it.

Although it also depends on the way you decide to interpret what someone tells you, if you at this time see it as negative or positively meant from the other's point of view. If you are feeling very sad or hurt it makes sense that it is easier seeing what is told to you as negatively meant, especially if it did brought up more painful memories to your mind. Even though it might not have been meant bad from the other person's point of view.
