Tell me what could I do?
To make it all better?
Don't know what I did
But I'm writin this letter
From me to you
What did I do?
I thought I made
Your wishes come true.
I'll lie here forever
Deathly and broken
Scars were formed
By all the words spoken
What did you mean?
Let sleeping dogs lie?
Did I dig too far?
That why I'm saying goodbye?
No explanation
No real reason
Ripped out my heart
It's a crime, it's called treason
Were you in for a thrill?
You just knew the drill
One easy step, go in for the kill
Did you feel anything, yet... still?
This is harder me than it is for you
Is this what it's like to take whip and beating?
No whispered words, no simple goodbye
Out cold on the floor, skin stripped and bleeding
This could have got better
The scars could be healed
But so you have a wish
It's already been sealed
A deal with the devil
A dance in the night
One shining blade
You didn't win the fight
Did you go for my freedom
You letting me go?
Were you tying me down?
You made it drip slow
I'll finish this up
Until then have a good night
But I'll still wonder
What could have gone right?

Thanks SILVER for a beautifully written poem (full of rhyme nd rhythm) but with a very sad sad content. There are always two sides (I've been on both) to an ended love affair. One (usually just walks away) the other (like you) lies bleeding and broken. My experience tells me its not the end ~ you are young beautiful and I am praying you will live and love again. Thanks for sharing I trust you found writing it cathartic. Thinking of you and praying for you. ~ Yours BRIAN
Sometimes we never know what happened. Like Brian I have been on both ends. Great write
