Array ( [sid] => 102584 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Never Again [time] => 2005-08-03 15:10:42 [hometext] => For JMH [bodytext] => I felt a love for you that words can barely describe,
In only you I thought I could confide,

I told you everything I told you all,
But the day I expressed my love was my downfall,

From that moment onward things turned for the worst,
I just wanted to be there for you, nothing more,
I had to stifled what I felt and choke down the words I longed to say,
I felt as if I could take it no longer or I would burst,
For I did so greatly adore,
Everything about you but in a way,

You were changing towards me on purpose,
So slowly that I did not notice,

Till one cold January day when you became someone I no longer knew,
You demanded to be heard, so I listened patiently,
You called me names, accused me of things I did not do, said you hated me and that I was wrong in loving you,
I took all this in quietly,

I believed you, I submitted to your cruelty and let you rule me,
Untill one day I finally opened my eyes, only then did I see,
You lied to me,

You are not the man I fell in love with, not the man I knew,
You are now a new you,

You never even apologized or admitted your wrong,
But my heart now sings a new song,

Not of pain and torment but of hope and it's waiting again for love to come,
You are not the one,

That is destined to be,
With me,

You no longer speak to me or acknowledge my existance when I pass by,
I would have it no other way for I no longer wish to cry,

And if you ever change your mind
You shall come to find

That I'd much rather leave you long in the past
Where I wrote sonnets about you every day,
And even the thought of you made my heart beast so fast,
Where your scent enticed me; and I wept because you were so far away,

I will not remember the pain you brought,
Or how hard I fought,

To not be mad at you, to not hate you for what you had done,
Our time together is gone,

In fact it never was, you were only a dream that played over and over in my head,
But now that dream is dead,

I will never awaken it as long as I shall live,
And never again will I give,

My heart to you,
That dream is through,

So good-bye and fare thee well
I no longer believe your lies,
For it made my life a living hell,
When you speak to me you no longer look me in the eyes,

You have no respect for me or my heart,
Now I have a new life, a new start,

There is no room for you in it at all,
You are but a fleeting moment in my life went as quickly as it came,
For loving you I am not ashamed,
But you cannot come in again for there is a gigantic fortress and wall,

That I have built around my heart to keep you out,
The flame that raged inside me, that engulfed me,
I blew out,
I stand before you now with my head high;I dare you to look at me,
For I am free

Wow, what a surprising turn of events!

I never thought I'd see this poem emerge!

Well, good for you for shaking yourself from old JMH...

wow 5 stars.your poem has inspired me in my own struggle with love right now,its hard letting go if you love the person,but its not fair to either person in the relationship if someone is hurting all the time.i agree that its best to move on,in the hope that someday both might be happy
