Locked Door

by Black Princess   Dec 29, 2007


I put my head down and walked away
Ashamed and confused I went astray.
Your heart shattered in front of my eyes,
I left all the pieces still where they lie.

I still have nothing left to say to you,
I still have no idea on what to do,
You lost something special, as did I.
But I had to walk away, I just cant say why.

Lost for the words I wish I could speak,
Wanting to pick up the pieces crumbled at your feet,
But my life has started all over again,
Now it is him and not you, as my man.

I did not not cheat and did not lie,
But I broke your heart and you still ask me why
In full truthfulness I am still unsure,
Why I chose to lock that door.

Apart of my life you no longer can be,
We both now have to move on, be set free.
I am with him and have started again
I have washed away my tears with the rain.

You only ever wanted the best for me,
Well now the best is to set me free.
So do not hold onto what is no more
Leave what I left which was once a locked door.

    An excellent poem.
    and i feel the same way about a kid i
    broke up with. he still tries to talk to me.
    and i humor him. but i wish he'd just let go.

    this poem was simply amazing.
    and the flow was flawless.
    I liked your choice of words. :]
    again, great write. 5/5.

    This poem was amazing
    If only I had read this when I was feeling this way
    it would have been absolutly perfect
    the second stanza got me
    i have to admit I began to cry
    thinking of my very own memories
    the last stanza was incredible
    I know what it's like to leave someone
    but you still almost can't let go
    I know you'll get through this tough time
    thanks for the excellent read
    5/5
