They Say

by PlasticSmile   May 31, 2010


They say, "Everything happens for a reason",
But I find this hard to believe.
What reason could you possibly have,
To break the heart I had placed on my sleeve?

They say, "Forgive and forget",
But forgetting is something I could never do.
I can forgive you for the mistakes you have made,
But I'll never forget all the shit you put me through.

They say, "Good things come to those who wait",
But I have been waiting my life away.
Hoping for that one moment where everything changes,
I keep wishing that day was today.

They say, "You can't change your past"
But if I had the chance to re-live one day,
I'd go back to when I first met you.
And I'd say to myself, "Turn around and walk away!"

    A deep and sad poem. The word play in every stanza fixed a motive, I liked the use you put to it.
    The words you used were a bit shallow and low leveled, the curse you put there ruined the flow a bit.
    The sentence I'd go back to the when I first met you is better put: I'd go back to when I first met you.

    Hope I helped... 4/5
