Goodbye

Folder: 
The Mushy Stuff

An uncoop heart, one, at start that was nurished,

and flourished into something great, far from 2nd rate,

but quickly changing to be, unstable, unable, to held, and

in my eyes welled, up tears for you, and for me, or what we could, should, would be.



A drawn out spirit, that's been broken,

with unspoken, words of deceit, but all the while you greet,  me with a smile, and sincere eyes.



I've always loved you, I mean at start. I honestly, truly, openly gave my heart and accepted yours in return.



That's why it burns, a hole in my soul, when you lie, or when you make me cry, or when you lie, , or when I long for more than you are willing to give.



How could I live with myself knowing I am the fool.



I'd rather sleep in a pool, of tears tonight and push you out of sight, than hold on and gripe about what you don't do, I am THROUGH.



So it's time for us to fade, we've both paid, our dues to this relationship, no longer joined at the hip, let alone the soul.



The goal, to far from reach, this should teach, me a lesson, or put me in a better position, which will aid, in my transition, from  the tears  to the joy, as I toy, with  the decision not to try.



So long. Farewell.Goodbye.

I love the strength you exhibit here- your refusal to settle for less than you deserve- your stoic resolve to find that man who will treat you right- and your insight in knowing when things can no longer be made right, that you take control and decide to end things as you know the relationship cannot be repaired- this poem is tight, well written, and wonderful piece of work- it's been great checkin your page out today- thanks for the awesome reads... :-)
