PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

My heart is aching and broken,

Torn between love and rage,

Bitterness leaking from every pore,

At the wretched soul I have become.

I am frustrated with myself,

Allowing you to hurt me so,

I should know better.

You tore down my protective walls,

And laughed at the aftermath.

Though I am shaken,

Fragile and misguided,

I will triumph in despair.

I will reach within my soul,

And grasp onto the inner light,

A light that resides in the darkness.

I will summon all my courage,

And become something more,

More than you thought capable.

Though my love for you,

Will never fade in this life time,

It has become abundantly clear,

That the choices we make,

Govern the consequences we face.

Hardships may follow,

And I am ready to face them,

With or without you.

Admittedly you have provided,

Much happiness and joy,

However I feel ready enough now,

To face tomorrows challenges,

Without fear and remorse.

I’m almost sorry that I am not,

Everything you had hoped I would be,

But I am not sorry for who I am.

This could be the beginning

Of something brand new,

Or it could be the end,

Of a great, yet short love.

Only time will tell.
