2 x 4

This is from my first collection of Poems Girl in the Stars

So broken hearted, so mad…and yet an aching to be with the exact reason you are.

2 x 4 belongs to the following groups:

All Things Poetic, Artistic, Philosophical, Everyday Life, Live, Love, Dream: , Two Beings Group and WMG

I felt so much pain
Or should I say
Too much pain

For you did leave me so
Or should I say, too

And didn’t I give you enough?
Enough time
Enough love
Enough complete, innocent, plentiful devotion

I stood as a starry night, lit up and ready to be gazed upon

You crushed me like a pesky bug
No regard, just die already!

Oh you have such maddening words
To think I set myself so high, along with you
To conquer!

Now I scuttle down in between sobs
And short bursts of strength

Oh but I want you still
Be again what you were!

Be again, what you were

    lovely work, amy

    i think everyone will be able to relate to this

    _I stood as a starry night, lit up and ready to be gazed upon

    You crushed me like a pesky bug
    No regard, just die already!_

    so well written… i love these words

  • girlinthestars replied

    That first real heartbreak is almost deadly – one thinks there’s no end to the pain. And yes, still we miss the self-delusion that we were loved. You never do quite forget even when a more wonderful love comes along. Lovely and heartfelt Amy!

  • girlinthestars replied

    thank you lianne…you’re so right, I thought i’d never love again. i remember thinking i’d marry someone else BUT still love my ex!! haha. that did not happen, because I actually fell out of love with him before i even met my husband. but it does linger for SO long~*

    oh, Amy…..

    I stood as a starry night, lit up and ready to be gazed upon
    You crushed me like a pesky bug

    some emotions are universal already, but somehow you gazed into the crystal ball of my past
    and saw what was back there…...makes my heart ache for what i lost, too. Fabulous poem…..

  • girlinthestars replied

    i know that feeling, when I read something and feel like the writer knows my experience, entirely. this poem was written in massive aching…thank you for your kind comment and I’m sorry for your heart ache!~*

    Gregory John O...

    I like this….........2×4 , is that the size of the piece of wood he hit you with ??? Sorry

  • girlinthestars replied

    thank you Gregory…no, he did not. If i still had a broken heart i would probably have cried at your comment! ha ha. but since it is old, I smiled. But I did title 2×4 this because that is what i felt like i was hit with when he broke my heart, so in a metaphoric way, you are right :)
