Your Words

by Silent Screams   Nov 19, 2007


Same old story, two souls unite in a bond
For years they had been, to one another, fond
And they spread the words of love amongst their friends
Unknown that there was going to be, with one, an end.

Never once thinking that there would be hurt
Unfortunately her heart is grounded into dirt
By that whom she considered a friend, so close
One who she had trusted the most.

This girl, so hurt and broken that no one sees
Is the author of this poem, she is me.
No one ever told me, that love came with pain
Now here I sit, tears cascade like rain.

Why is it that I'm running, running from you
When I thought you were a friend, one to be true?
Unfortunately, my senses were completely wrong
And now I'm on the edge of weak and strong.

Yes, I'll admit it in Love am I
And he's never once made me cry.
Instead he's one of those I run to
Whenever I'm down and blue.

Even so, those words you say to me cut deep.
Deeper then the ones upon my wrist when I weep.
But you don't seem to understand.
Ever since we've been together, I've been able to stand.

Why aren't you happy for me?
Why is it you cannot see;
Of all the pain you make?
Are you trying to make me break?

Why is it that I'm running, running from you
When I thought you were a friend, one to be true?
Unfortunately, my senses were completely wrong
And now I'm on the edge of weak and strong.

And here I am now,
As I wonder how
How did I survive today as it went by?
I wonder why I didn't cry.

Maybe that's what you need to see
To get you to understand me.
Maybe that's what it'll take, dear boy
To make you see my life isn't a toy.

It is truly sad my old friend
On how you react to my relationship in the end.
So I'm guessing you're the type of guy
Who goes against everything in my eyes.

Why is it that I'm running, running from you
When I thought you were a friend, one to be true?
Unfortunately, my senses were completely wrong
And now I'm on the edge of weak and strong.

I understand that you can be concerned
But what you've shown isn't concern, I've learned.
I don't know exactly what it is, but I know it's killing me
So now I'm done with it, with the things you don't see.

You tell me to leave him, but I want to know what's best
You say he causes problems in my life; Stress.
But that is where I draw the line, no more; your words will I hear
Because this is the end of our friendship my dear.

    Wow - this is powerful. I loved all of it. I am seeing myself in your writing. Stress, being weak and being strong is the story of my ever changing moods. I may have to write a poem focusing on these key words. Keep writing. You are gifted.
