I found a picture on line that had a great verse about hello and goodbye, I thought I would put together a poem. Tell me what you think.
Hello and Goodbye
Hello to the new me
Goodbye to what you made me be
Hello to my new life
Without you by my side
Hello to freedom
Goodbye to the tie down
Hello starting over
Where have you been?
Goodbye person I once knew within.
Hello and Goodbye
To what I once knew
Hello new beginnings
Goodbye now I’m through
Hello’s give you hope
Goodbyes kill your dreams
It’s never easy finding the in between.
Once I say goodbye
Forget who I am
Forget that I knew you
Forget that I ever believed in you
My hello was lived short
But my goodbye will live forever
Hello new life
Goodbye the tears that came at night
Hello hope
Goodbye old life.
Nothings forever
I’ve learned that from the past
When I met him, I thought our love would last
Then he broke my heart in two, left me wondering what i did wrong,
made me move on.
Nothings forever
I’ve learned that from the past
When I met him, I thought our love would last
He lied, he cheated, he broke me to pieces
I had to move on, I had to get out
I couldn’t believe I fell for his lies
and in the end it was only his demise.
Nothings forever
I’ve learned that from the past
in the end of any heartache
you learn to move on
you learn nothings forever
you learn that in the end everything will be okay
and when you learn to walk away
there is nothing left to say.
Broken in Two – Photo by: google.com/images
I had someone write to me once about their relationship, how it ended and how it began, and she wanted me to write a poem that described her relationship. SO…. Here it is, let me know what you think….
Broken in Two
I loved you with words unsaid
I loved you until you cheated in my bed
I loved you for all the wrong reasons
I loved you for all the right feelings
I loved you for what you didn’t say
for all the lies you made
You looked at me with truth
I didn’t see the real you
You were a liar and a fake
you cheated on me and that was your biggest mistake
I tried to forgive you
I tried to ignore the truth
I was blinded by an image that wasn’t me and you
you took my heart
you played it like a string on a guitar
you said you loved me
but the truth was you only loved yourself
you lied to yourself
made everything bigger than it was
pretended to be happy
lost without a doubt
one day the light turned on
and you knew you couldn’t pretend anymore
you fought it but you had to say it out loud
our relationship was a blur
as if it was never true
i wish it weren’t because it would have been easier to forget you.
When i moved on
you wanted me back
it was too late
you have to face the facts,
you fucked up
and there’s no turning back.
now i see you and you pretend to be happy
but i know you
you never changed
you can put on an act
pretend to be happy
pretend nothing in the world will break you
but we both know the truth
you’re broken in two
the person i once knew
and the new you
you can put on a smile
you can move forward in life
but deep down inside you’ll never be you
you will always be the broken man i once knew.
You thought you stopped loving me?
You thought you didn’t care?
How could you be so selfish to just sit back and stare?
I looked into your eyes as my eyes filled up with tears,
You stood there standing watching me drown out my fears.
You pretended to be happy.
You put on an act,
You thought I couldn’t see the truth,
You had to face the facts.
You put up a wall; you pushed me to the floor
I did all I could do
I even gave you my door.
Then one day I woke up and realized this is it.
I didn’t want to be with you, my fate was sealed with out your kiss.
CHORUS:
Now you’re the one crying inside
You’re the one that can’t let go
You’re the one wishing for me to come back
Wishing once again I’d be at your door.
You pushed me way to far.
I walked right out the door.
I told you I loved you but I couldn’t take the pain no more.
I asked you if you loved me.
I gave you one last chance.
All you did was look at me, you failed my last request.
With silence in your eyes, you stood in disbelief.
You didn’t say a single word, you didn’t share a peep.
If you would have listened closely,
You can hear my every word,
You can hear the tears fall down
And my heart break in a million burns.
You didn’t think I’d leave you,
You thought I’d always be around
You thought you had me.
You stood your ground.
Well you thought wrong…
You let me walk away
You lost me that day.
Now you’re left with nothing to say.
I thought I stopped loving you and I thought I didn’t care.
I pushed our love aside, as you looked into my eyes.
You cried for me and I let you down.
I don’t know how to fix this so I almost let you drown.
I pretended to be happy
But you knew the real me
You knew how to make me smile and I let you leave.
You were my everything and I let you down.
I let you walk away that day,
What the fuck was I thinking when I let you get away?
Why did I put up this wall?
Why did I let you go?
Chorus: I’m crying inside
I can’t break free
Sadness is killing me
Please come back to me.
I can’t let you go
You’re my everything.
I pushed you away until you stepped out the door.
You said you loved me but you couldn’t take the pain no more.
You asked me if I loved you
If we could make it work,
You said all there was to say
Then you walked away…
I stood in silence as you looked into my eyes
I couldn’t say a word, as tears rolled down your eyes…..
I saw I was breaking your heart.
But I stood in disbelief
Never thought you would really leave me!
I can’t lose you now
You’re all I ever had
I thought I’d never lose you but I was wrong to think I had
Because I still had you,
You were mine in every way
And when I let you walk away
I lost you that day!
Now I’m left with nothing to say….
This poem below really is a bit of everything. I added a dream I had in there along with my Uncle passing away, so maybe it doesn’t make sense, does it have to? I haven’t really finished it either. It feels incomplete to me. But I just can’t seem to find my muse and finish it up. Maybe someone can give me some pointers or some ideas…..Well tell me what you think….
Somebody hurt me…
Somebody hurt me
It happened so fast,
When I woke up it was in my past.
My image was blurred
Gone from my life,
Everything in that moment
Disappeared with the light.
Why do we block things from our minds that we just can’t fight?
Everybody leaves
No body ever stays
Did I do something wrong, to make them all go away?
I saw her in my dreams
So beautiful and sweet
I tried to save her but my body became weak.
I tried to speak but no words came out.
I woke up and wished for another night,
Maybe this time I can make things right.
Everybody leaves
Nobody ever stays
Did I do something wrong to make them all go away?
I wake up with tears dripping from my eyes
My heart aches with every tick from the clock
Another moment as passed, another day trashed.
With every breath I take my visions crashed.
With every pitter patter my heart skips a beat
With every tear drop, it bleeds.
With every rain drop
Horizons on its bend
Who would have seen his fate; completely dead?
Hello – Anyone out there reading my posts? Sadly no one entered a poem to be featured in today’s post, so I guess I will have to put one of my OLDER Poems…… I wrote this and tweaked it a little to sound a little better. If you are reading… Let me know what you think.
Random Thoughts…
Have you ever just realized that the person you are with isn’t perfect, but with all the flaws and all the differences you have you know deep down that this person is for you, that He or She is your kind of Perfect? I grew up and realized that no one is perfect, but that is what makes us all unique, and in the end there is always that one person who fits perfectly together with you. This was dedicated to my boyfriend…
You’re my kind of Perfect
When I found you I didn’t know you would be the one
When you found me we were just having fun
Then out of nowhere we fell in love.
I never thought you were perfect but to me you shine that light
When I’m in the dark you make everything alright.
When we kissed I felt the summer breeze.
When our eyes met I knew deep down that now I can finally breathe.
When I met you I was lost,
I didn’t think love really existed,
But I opened up my heart to you,
I let you see the me no one sees,
And when you looked at me I knew
I had to let you in my world,
Because without you, I just wouldn’t be me.
Through the years you’ve been my strength
My best friend through it all
And even though we aren’t perfect
You’re my kind of Perfect
You’re my kind of Love…
When you left I put you in a box
wrapped you up and left you in the back of my head
Every now and then you pop up in my mind
leave me alone
it just isn’t our time
You left me so sudden
it all just went away
I didn’t have time to cry for you
so I walked away.
Everyone leaves one day
but it just wasn’t your time
that day in the hospital
a part of me died.
Every time someone left a part of me left too
it’s a wonder I’m still here
standing here
writing this to you.
With tears held back
I shiver in fear
because I don’t know who I’ll lose next
and drown out my tears
The world is so big
yet oh so small
why can’t you just leave when you leave
why do you linger in my dreams?
Letting go of pain
is the hardest thing I’ve had to do
Living in this world of mine
I do what I have to do
Today is another day
Today I continue to walk
Today I live my life
with you in that little black box.
