PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

you raised my hopes to bring them down

and on my face is no longer a frown

but a fake smile when im near you

I can't understand how you do what you do

you said you cared for me so much

and yet you shied away from my touch

you thought I didn't notice that

but I noticed every time we sat

and you thought I didn’t notice your affection for him

but I noticed it all and took it all in

I noticed you liked him but never made a peep

I kept quiet as I could while you dug yourself deep

into a whole where you stayed for a while

our relationship seemed like it could last for miles

and then you decided you liked him more

you told me that and a hole was toreon the silken fabric of my heart and mind

I am driven to the brink others, begin to find

I cant believe only two days passed

before you were going out with him at long last

and you thought me too fragile to be able to take

this news of you and now again I’m fake

the face I show the world is a mask once more

the room housing my emotions I locked and shut the door

and my hopes and dreams are shot down again

but its like they sat "the best laid plans of mice and men...."
