I'm So Over You.

by Courageous Dreamer   Jun 26, 2008


I can't put everything out there,
because that would be too big of a risk to take.

I can't tell you all these feelings built up inside me,
because I'm afraid I won't hear the same thing back.

I can't keep holding on,
because I've wasted three years liking you.

I can't see us together,
because neither of us have been able to open up to one another.

I can't see that connection, that special bond we share,
because there never was one, not even from the start.

I can't tell you how I feel,
because I'm afraid you just don't feel the same.

I can't keep thinking about you,
because I overthink things way too much.

I can't do this anymore,
because I'm just not ready for you.

I can't do this,
because I know I'm not good enough for you.

I simply can't be with you,
because I don't see a future with you.

I am officially over you, for the time being,
because I need to rethink how I feel about you.

    I truly adored that one. I liked how I could feel the way you felt in the stanza's you had written. Most of us can relate in one way or another, sometime in out lives.

    Now I do feel like you contradicted yourself, you said you don't want to think about him, because you overthink alot, but at the end you want to think about your feelings for him, and at the same time your over him.

    Very confusing. But all in all great writing. Hope to see more from you soon.

    Wow. I really, really like this. It seems heartfelt, and very emotional to me, and that's awesome.

    "I can't see that connection, that special bond we share,

    ^^ That's my favourite part of this piece. I feel like it gives the reader an idea of the relationship, or lack thereof, between the people the poem is about.

    Great job.

    I liked the format you had and your emotions felt real.

    I can't tell you all these feelings built up inside me,
    because I'm afraid I won't hear the same thing back.

    I can't tell you how I feel,
    because I'm afraid you just don't feel the same.

    ^Those two say basically the same thing but I like the first one better.

    I can't keep thinking about you,
    because I overthink things way too much.
    ^ I overthink things too but I've learned not to overanalyze life and just dance to its music because life is too short to question everything.

    I can't do this,
    because I know I'm not good enough for you.

    ^Not good enough for him? Are you kidding me?! You're my Temps, the sweetie I love talking to everyday. Why are you putting yourself down? I don't want to hear you saying things like that because you're an amazing person.

    I am officially over you, for the time being,
    because I need to rethink how I feel about you.

    ^ I liked the ending because it was heartfelt and true.

    Well done *5/5*
