i guess you could say i’m still heartbroken. way over you, but still heartborken. because i actually thought i had a chance. but was too in love to see that i was never… the one for you
and when i saw you kiss her
i lost my breath, choked
on my words and started to
cry, because i couldn’t
understand why you would
do something like that
you can’t tell me that theres someone out there
who will prove me wrong
when i say that this isn’t worth it anymore
cause it doesn’t take a rocket scientist to figure out
THEY’RE ALL THE SAME
you and i were different.
we came from different worlds,
and yet you were the one who taught me
the value of love
people think i’m lying about being hurt
because they see me laughing
little do they know, i laugh to keep from crying
i remember the first time
that i really looked
you in the eyes
i was thinking to myself
there will never
be anybody else
he was born a liar, he’ll die a liar
some things will never be different
[maybe] i’m over you
[maybe] i’ve moved on
[maybe] i like someone else
[but maybe] i’m a perfectly good liar
things have been screwed up latley,
i know
but i’m just here to let you know
you’re still my everything
and what you’ve done
doesn’t change a thing
the truth is i miss you with all my heart
and i can’t stand the sound of your name
because it hurts too much
the fact that i won’t ever see you again
makes it even worse
i’m sharing a drink with a memory
and a laugh with an empty seat
and i’d rather be fighting with you
than sleeping here next to him

This is a warm poem…. somehow I seem to read someone’s life story (I don’t know why I have a feeling its you)...However, the most interesting thing is the relationship between this poem and your photography. The first time anybody sees all these gorgeous girls (including you) in the pictures its a delight…all you want to is just comment about the beauty. When I read your profile I thought I should just read one of your poem (I might just get to know you). Then I was thinking…all these beautiful girls with spectacular smiles each one of them could be have a story nobody knows about….we just see the outer beauty and never imagine what they have gone through and what their life is like. Its nice being beautiful but sometimes it can be a curse….everyone wants a piece of you and all that interest them is that you look pretty …its not always the case that they give you what is best for you. I cant imagine what you models have to go through to look the way you do…Anyway, so is life …who doesn’t get excited when they see a beautiful girl….

Thank you. What you said meant a lot to me. I think you are right…people see someone pretty and they don’t completely understand the person. They are more willing to think about someone’s life when they are maybe more “plain”. But what is plain? I think that everyone is beautiful in their own way…but sometimes it’s hard to find that beauty when it’s burried beneath a lot of pain. I think you are very deep. And I thank you for that.

This is such a beautiful piece! So much truth has been put into this and only a heart of pure pain could ever write this. Only one who has gone through a broken and torn heart can truely know all the thoughts going through ones heart while in the pain of this. The thought that they are all the same, he is the worst person in the world, yet you would still take him over any other lover shows that the author has been there before, if they are not still going through these thoughts. Much love as a fellow poet and much love as a fellow woman!
