Start Thinking of You

by MyEscape   Feb 14, 2008


I've known you for what feels like forever
And it hurts 'cause I can't put you back together
You still won't admit you're falling apart
Or that she's taking the very best of your heart

I don't think she deserves you, sorry to say
Wish you'd think of yourself for one minute today
I know you don't want to hurt her but see
If you don't love her that's enough to leave

Eventually she won't find comfort with you
If she finds out what you have isn't true
And at that point you can't go running away
But right now, boy, you don't have to stay

So leave, if your heart is pushing you to go
Don't question the red flags that you know
Your mind is telling you to think this through
So leave, if she isn't the one for you

It's all right, to admit things turned out wrong
It's okay, to put it aside and start with moving on
No one, is going to judge you for this decision
In fact, we all have been praying for this action

We want, to see you get what you deserve
And we all think you can do much better than her
It's not like we are all against what you decide
It's just, we can see this from the clearer side

So listen, to the voice of those who really care
Don't ignore what it is that's standing there
I know, this is the hardest thing to do
But now, it's time to start thinking of you

    This poem is wonderful. its filled with so much honesty. sometimes you rly do need to follow your heart and even though doing so may break anothers heart, in the end, it's for the best. pretending to love someone will hurt them more than the truth. i couldn't agree more with everything in this poem. as well, i have a friend who is always thinking of others, but she never thinks of herself. or her own feelings. she should read this lol. ahh this was sooooo goood!!! 5/5

    best part...

    A really, really nice poem. I like it a lot. I can't quite decide which stanza is my favorite between the third and forth, but they're both wonderful. Saying that, I really liked the opening and closing stanzas too. Ah, it's too hard, but I guess that's a good thing. I loved what was being said, and the way it was being said. I loved the structure and the flow, some of the rhymes I thought could have done with a bit more work, but the majority was great.
