Disappointing

Mara "Marzipan"

 You were my friend, at least that is what I thought,
I could not prevent my self from falling, I tried to not,

I don't know why you felt you had to lie,
Now the truth is out and causes my mind to fill with doubt,

Now, here I sit astonished at my foolish naivety,
Showing your true colors, you've lost your dignity,
You threw away respect, this you can not undo,
Severely disappointing is the best I can say about you,

I thought you were a better man not just a flake,
Beguiled I was, like so many others you're just a fake,

Now I can relate to the hollow, solitary tree,
the one among-st the emerald sea, engraved in my memory,
to still be surrounded by life and beauty yet mar it so vividly,

My love was given easily and never taken away,
Yet it was not my love, but my trust you did betray.

Reap what you sow, in time you'll receive your due,
Just remember in your solitude.......
what you did........
when some one truly loved you.

  • Comment from author about the poem: Love makes you blind they say, well I was deaf, dumb, and blind when I dated this person. Funny story that long after the fact of us no longer talking. I had just started to date my now husband, when I got a call from a bar, telling me my ex was wasted and couldn't drive. Me being the good person I am, I picked him up to take him home, but he had moved and was so wasted he couldn't even tell me where. He puked in my car & it took me & three of my neighbors to get his drunken self in my house on my couch, with a bucket. Next morning, he's confused doesn't remember anything, but I have to go to work, so I take him to his car after explaining the night prior. He gets out of the car, and turns to me to say "There's so much I wanna say..." I just cut him off, "There's nothing to say. You're not in jail, dead, or in the hospital, a thank you and have a good day is all that's left between us." Sometimes you just have to let people come into your life and leave it just as well. No matter if it hurts, or what they say, at the end of the day, actions will prove all. Love yourself and know you deserve better!
