The Biggest Disappointment Was You!

You Pretended to care,
you promised you’d be there.
You said it was something we could share,
I though you were something quite rare.

You knew all about me, the baggage that came,
I thought you’d have the same.
The excuses that followed were lame
and apparently it was all just a game

I’m left questioning myself once more
wondering what it’s all for.
And now my hearts exposed and raw
leaving all feelings discarded and strewn about the floor.

SO THANKS
For making me think I was wanted,
then slamming a door in my face,
for making me laugh and smile
then bringing the tears back again.

And lastly THANKS
For showing me that I really am better off without you,

Without ANYONE.

The usual, heartache type ode, talking about someone who has thought that something shiny and new was happening, but really it was the same old, same old.

    I can so relate to this.. But really none of us are better off Alone.. that old saying comes to mind..
    “Better to have loved and lost, then never to have loved at all”

    I know it probably doesn’t feel that way initially, but hearts do mend.. and if their is one thing I’ve learned in this lifetime just when you think a door has closed another one opens.. There are so many many chances that you’ll find the right person (perhaps he just wasn’t the one).

  • Hi Thank you for your words, alot of my writing that I add was either from many years ago when I first started writing, and had no avenue to show it, or it comes at me in waves, of thats a good idea. and it just then flows, this particuler piece, came from me thinking about something and the title or a variaition of the title came to me, and this poem just seemed to flow…so although I am in that poem, I am not completely in there….if that make sense to you.

    Perfectly as I do the same.. It was a good poem, in that many can relate to it.

  • Thank you, it’s a shame that so many can relate to it though….

    That is fantastic!! Its saying something I am feeling at this time just getting out of a relation for 15 months….. Good writting!!!! :)

  • Thank you and I am sorry for you, I have always written my feelings, and can only write when things are getting to me, But I know that people before that have read some of my other works have said that it reaches them s they have felt like that before. I suppose we all know that we end up feeling the same as other people….that was a long babble wasn’t it..not sure I even said anything..hope you get through it all unscathed. you have to remember that anyway that can make you feel worthless is not worthy of anything but our utter disgust.
