The past is tearing us apart

by Tainted Beauty   Jul 27, 2006


Last year was a hard year for us,
I think you finally realize how much it hurt,
You apologized, but I already forgave you,
Bringing it up only made it worse,

You wrote me a page, to try to heal the wounds,
You dont realize it would take so much more than that,
Countless months of torture,
Meaningless words wont take that back,

I can feel your remorse,
But I still feel my pain,
I dont want to go back to that,
I dont need to live this again,

You told me the truth for once,
But it was something I knew all along,
I could tell by the way you were acting,
I knew something was wrong,

You hurt me so badly,
But it wouldnt have happened if I didnt care,
Ive always had a feeling of unworthiness
I hated being compared,

It all happened so fast,
It was something I could never get my head around,
Why did you change your mind,
What made you love me now?

I dont want to lose you this time,
Im so scared youll break my heart,
I know its all over,
But our past is tearing us apart.

    Honestly, I feel the same way about a friendship I have...i just let a friend go because of things in the past and this poem makes me regret a little bit of it, then again it doesn't...Theres only so many times you can forgive a person until you realize, the more you forgive them, the more they will probably hurt you...once they do something wrong, they more then likely will keep doing it until THEY see their mistakes.....I loved this poem, good rhymes!

    Omg I love it. This remeinds me of the fight my boyfriend and I had, when he was being honest. I still haven't fully forgave him nor fully trust him yet. Your poem was really sad. I love it.
