I Never Dreamed (a poem)

I Never Dreamed
feb 26/01


I never dreamed it?d come to this
Bruised and broken discarded
Like an empty can
Useless as ever
That?s just the way I am.

Remember when life was young
I told you I loved you
You laughed with no reply
Should have known better
There was a reason why.

You looked into my eyes
Cut my soul and left
Me there to bleed
Consuming my life
To fill some fleeting need.

The things that I tried to do
To keep us together
They left you quite amused
How could I know that
I was just being used.

You reached inside of me
Twisted my heart
To make me feel the pain
Healed me up just
To do it once again.

You could apologise
I?d take you back
And try it one more time
My love for you
Is nothing if not blind.

I stare into the night
Wonder where you are
You send me no reply
Think I?d have learned
There is a reason why.

I didn?t think I would
Take my own life
And break it all apart
No use pretending
It was doomed from the start.

Broken hearts, suicide, loneliness. Better to vent those feelings than to let them fester, IMO.
I thought up about 4 more stanzas, but have forgotten them! Drat!
I should have titled it "Cut My Soul", which is (I think) the most powerful line in the poem.
Live and learn! If it hurts, it means you're learning!
