Battle of Wills

"No matter what you say or do

I may not ever forgive you

for pain you caused along the way

for all the prices I did pay

for every time I was mislead

the pain I felt is on your head."



These words were written yesterday

but painful they are still

of all this bullshit I do see

I've quickly had my fill.

I'm angry though I can not scream

because your gone from view

and even if those words did come

you won't see them as true.



The blame that's yours is put on me

it's easier that way

you'd rather have my heart in shreads

when our love starts to fray.

And now the strings are pulled apart

my tears it's stone grey dye

it hurt's to see that you'd do this

even if it is a lie.



But I have never given up

as you just simply do

if I did ever break your heart

I surely never knew.

Just know this isn't over

I will never let you fly

you will regret that painful day

when you just had to lie.

Your choice of words seem very awkward, the word order makes you seem sort of detatched, which I think contradicts what you would have intended for the poem, to be a very personal and important issue in your life. But thats just how I see it, the last two lines are heartbreaking on many levels though. Overall, it was great. Keep up the good work!

Damn, good stuff Nikki.

"you'd rather have my heart in shreads
when our love starts to fray.
And now the strings are pulled apart
my tears it's stone grey dye"

Those lines were awesome.
