My Own Chosen Path

by Goran Rahim   Apr 10, 2007


Many times
I have told my heart
To leave you alone.
So you cannot be bothered again.
But my poor heart refused to listen,
As
Your picture was
The source of its life.
Yet my heart
Just got tears in return.

With my wet eyes,
Many times
We tried to convince it
Saying
"She is arrogant"
Yet your sweet smile
Makes my heart restless for you
Like a candle,
Dying to give brightness.

You know it
So do I

It is my everyday life
since that moment my heart saw you,
I wish it never did
because,
Those years
deserved to be spent with joy.

Yet I have no complaint,
As it was my own chosen path.

Many times you hurt me
Yet
Like the waves of the sea
I never gave up
To reach the shore
But
I never got there.

You know it
So do I.

You are telling me
You have a life.
True,
But I wasted mine
Toward the
Hopeless journey

Yet I have no complaint,
As it was my own chosen path.

Tonight
You crossed all the borders
Leaving no respect behind,
For none of my
Sacrifices
Tears
Or
Pains...........

Yet I have no complaint,
As it was my own chosen path.

My dear,
Tonight you made me cry once more.
But
The tears were different
This time,
They joined my heart's tears.
As,
Tonight you hurt me.

You know it
So do I.

I am not hurt for what you said,
As by now
I am use to those words.
I am hurt
As
You compared my purest love
To your flirts.
To you,
We are all the same.

You know it
So do I

Yet I have no complaint,
As it was my own chosen path.

You shall go,
Wherever..........
You go to England
Or leave to
France,
I will not turn around
I will not give you another chance.

But you should know
This death heart
Is
Still full of respect for you.
As you were my poor heart's choice
There is no other "you"

Have a great life.

    Wow.. this is truly an amazing poem.. i love the way it read.. very smoothly while still expressing every emotion and thought you had.. it was long and some long poems seem to drag on simply for length and not because the writer really has much to say, however.. this was not like that at all.. every line was filled with purpose

    over all a beautiful poem.. also i especially love the repeating lines.. i myself do that in some of my poems :D i think it really adds something
