We Were Never Meant To Be...

by tabithaa   Oct 20, 2005


How Could such a shallow grave,
bury me alive?
How can I keep living,
If I don't care if I survive?

You've already blamed my shallow heart,
On your every little mistake,
And you've blamed my unconcern for others,
On your every heart break.

You've blamed me for the tears in your eyes,
Falling to the ground,
You've blamed me for your silent screams,
Just because I don't make a sound.

You've told me that I'm the cause
Of this cold, lonely war,
You've told me that I no longer have a heart,
And that I'll never be positively sure.

You've blamed me for your failure,
No matter how hard I tried,
You've blamed me for your internal pain,
And every tear you've cried.

You even blame me for the battles,
That you can't win,
When your the one,
That really gave in.

You've never understood,
That I was helping you,
That I wouldn't give in,
Until you made it through.

We all need somebody,
And I have none,
I was alone throughout the battle,
You had someone.

You had me,
I guess you didn't know,
That I was always there for you,
Everywhere you would go.

I had your back,
But you never had mine,
I would have died for you,
But you wouldn't even cross the line.

I kept my eyes open,
And I watched you leave,
I helped you so much,
Through so much deceive.

I'm in disbelief,
I feel used and unloved,
I went through so much pain,
Without any love.

I risked my life to save you,
But you didn't care,
I almost lost everything,
And you still weren't there.

I know I shouldn't worry,
Yet, I feel stupid and alone,
I feel so worthless,
And I'm on my own.

You built me up once,
And chased away my fears,
You wiped my eyes,
And suppressed the tears.

But, that was a lie,
And it was all fake,
It was a fantasy,
And a huge mistake.

You changed too quickly,
But I love you still,
Even though the time we spent together,
Was never real.

Sometimes I wondered,
Are we meant to be?
Perfect together,
You and me?

I don't love you anymore,
I know you see,
It's just sad how I know,
That we were never meant to be.

    I'm a sap for a good melancholy love/loss poem(that's what most of mine are)and this is a good one.The rhyme scheme is a bit cliched in a couple spots but as a whole it flows smoothly.Sounds like a tangled web, trying to save someone from themself, you cover all the emotions well.I might consider a bit of editing but almost all of the stanzas are strong ones.A lot of emotional impact in this.Great job.
