Shattered
And choking on my tears
Losing you
I just can't bear this
Take all the pieces of me
Scoop them up, bare hands on broken glass
Refusing to look at my reflection
What have I done?
What have I done?
I never should have left you
I never should have given you up.
All these pieces of me
Put in a box
Take me
And shove me on a shelf, in a closet
To be forgotten
And covered in dust
Let him go
Let him go
He deserves to be happy
Even if I'm not
Thanks for the memories
And all the time spent
You are irreplaceable
And loved me at my worst
All these pieces of me
I will clean up
And you can forget about me
I'm not yours to worry about, anymore.
But I will smile
And tell you I'm so happy for you
Even though it destroys me to.

Ohhhhhhhhh DOLL a very poignant poem lamenting lost love . It's happened to me often but my philosophy always is "Better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all !" I'm 33 and still looking for Miis Right ! I don't stay in a shelved box and neither should you ! I have a new GF (28) so who knows ? I get knocked down but never knocked out. Thinking of you DOLL ~ Love you ~ so get out of that BOX I'm ready with the SUPAGLUE to put you back together again ! Every Blessing for the future ~ Your Friend BRIAN
I remember the words of a Patsy Cline song, "I fall to pieces, each time I see you again." Also I believe that lobsters, when approached move backwards. Time to move forward like when the lobster is searching for food. Thanks for sharing.
Wonderful write
absolutely beautiful. I hear this in my mind as a spoken word, i hope some day you try that out (if you haven't already)!!
