Worthless Words
I'm so sorry to be writing you this
I never thought we would fall in love
Or that my nights would be filled with tears
And pleading to God above
I’m so tired of being heartbroken
Yet this is how I always am
The one person I need is so far beyond my reach
How this happened I’ll never understand
I’m so sick of living with this emptiness
But it’s a feeling I can never lose
I’ve waited all my life to find you
And now I’m unable to choose
I’m so afraid of knowing what’s right
When it’s what I cannot do
And I would gladly give up anything
If I didn’t have to give up you
I’m so unforgivable for putting you though this
But I’ve been torturing us both too long
Why can’t I be the one who surrenders
And not the one who stands strong
I’m so weary of this life
It’s always playing with my heart
I should have seen this coming
I should have ended it at the start
I’m so stupid for lying
When I said that I loved only you
I couldn’t dream of bringing you pain
My punishment was that my lie came true
I’m so hopeless for still holding out hope
When reality has crushed all my dreams
Despite my best efforts at self-deception
This situation is just as bad as it seems
I’m so numb as I lay here
Thinking of my life without you
This would be so much easier
If I didn’t adore everything about you
I’m so angry for fooling myself
Into thinking that somehow everything would be fine
I know there is no way that this can ever work
And I realize that the fault is all mine
I’m so miserable knowing that even if we endure the trials
That we can’t be truly together
When you don’t share the most important part of my life
And eventually I’ll lose you forever
And I’m so sorry that you ever loved me
But I can never regret loving you
And if even it means that my heart is broken forever
I know finally what I have to do.
I love you
Goodbye

impressive poem and perhaps the best title that could be given to this piece. i liked the profressionalism in this also. the ending did irk me though, because the last line, "Goodbye" seemed so distant from the rest of the piece, even though it fit in concept wise. i think it was placed without any effective transition, and was too sudden and hard hitting to fit with the rest of the piece for that reason. though that shift works both ways, it just worked that way for me. hopefully you have enough soul left to write of other things, but if not at least you have this to your name.

| The ending was a bit different, but there's a good reason, I wrote this for her, it was the only way I could stand to say goodbye to her... |

I know you only wanted me to post critiques on your poems, but yeah... I can't help doing so with a bit of my own personal feelings.
Brandin, I love this poem like I love every poem you've ever shown me. I just want you to know that those words are not worthless in the slightest bit. I cried when I read them. I know you wrote it months ago, but it still applies to today for us... I just want you to know that I'm not willing to give up before we start. Thank you for another beautiful poem love... It's one of my favorites. I think that you did exactly what you always complain that you can't do; put emotion in it. You did. Keep writing... I can't wait to read your next poem. |

| This is very good. I am reminded of a song by the "Manhattens" which i will not quote; "Let's just kiss and say good bye" This is a very worthy write. |

Words of Love are never worthless.
Understood or not, reciprocated or not, they always have infinite value.
A very sensitive, tender and delicately penned poem.
Thanks Brandi for sharing it with us.

I'm kind of scared to comment, it's a beautiful poem, amazing, heartfelt, you can tell you put your heart into it, but I'm not exactly sure I get the meaning, but it seems your trying to protect her, or yourself, I may be completely off base, but if your hiding, trying to protect either you or her, in the long run you'll just hurt the both of you. I know it seems difficult sometimes, to bear your heart and soul to the one you love, but you shouldn't be afraid, because in the end, you'll just suffer. Again lol sorry if I'm way off base, but I loved the poem.

extreamly long, cut some stanzas down, get to the point and go with it, Dont lag on with pointless stanzas, it kills the intrest. you did have some really good lines though.
