Somebody gentle to love
A warm caring person
Sent by you from up above
To have and to hold
Until my last final breath
I promised to love him
Even well after my death
Days came and went
The ice began to melt
His true colours surfaced
Spitefulness became felt
He promised me the world
All I got were mere lies
He betrayed all my trust
And he severed the ties
Now I’m left broken
With scars and no dreams
I thought he loved me
But I was wrong it seems
God, all I ever wanted was
Somebody to shelter my fears
All I ended up with was
A sadist who caused me tears...…

Aw Sue, this is so sad. :-(
*huge huge bear hug*
I guess at least your pain inspired a wonderful write though. That's the good.....no the great that came out of this. You write so well and express your feelings so well. I'm sorry you're sad but at least you wrote a wonderful poem from it all. Very well written indeed.
Take care and one more *huge huge bear hug* for ya'. :-)
Love,
Your friend,
Tim

You know Sue, this is a very emotion felt write, and in all honesty, I think it's impossible for one person not to hurt another. It's complex, but people have the natural instinct to unintentionally screw up - mess up, things, that could have been wonderfully amazing. Sometimes, someone can't see, how great the person infront of them is. A very tender write, and I entirely enjoyed it. Chin up Sue, cause there's lots of people out there, and though everyone, at one point will - more than likely hurt you, you'll find the one that trys his hardest not to, and is worth the hurt he does cause. I hope you find the perfect person, you deserve it. Great write.

Sue this is so very sad.
Im sorry that this has happened to you.
It seems that the ones with the truest heart
and soul are the ones who get hurt the worst.
Your a true gem and dont let him ruin your heart and make tears fall. He doesnt deserve you your the flower of the world with a heart of gold and I love you sweetheart.
Your a dear friend to me and Ill always treasure you. Im a pm away if you need me .
huge hugs and tissues to dry the tears
your friend in the desert

There is nothing worse than that feeling of betrayal, I've gone through periods of my life when its made me hard hearted.
Took me a long time to realise it wasn't doing me any good.
Good thought provoking poetry.

Well written poem Sue I like how you
mentioned in the liner that you still hang on to
hope which is something we must always
hold on to. I think most people can relate to
the subject you wrote about, but just realize
that you deserve someone better and that
your heart will heal. A wonderful poem my
dear and I will pray for happier days ahead.

Dear Sue,
Be at peace... there is One whos love is greater than your sorrow. Dont forget this, that He is the Comforter, because He cannot hurt us. He is always faithful, and never leaves you nor forsakes you, if you ask and allow for His protection... of course, we ourselves all make mistakes. Our love is far from perfect, and so we must be gracious to ourselves and to each other, willing to let Him change us a little more every day to His perfect image. Thats why Jesus died, to forgive your sins, and to take them away. Whats done is done, set your mind apon the the future hopes, of meeting Him in His glory, of a world remade with pure love. Forgive others as Hes forgiven you, and be open to His leading. That will lead to a life abundant in love, joy, and peace. We cant change what others do, God has given us each the precious gift of free will. However, we are each responsible for ourselves, and how we respond to difficulties and others hurtfulness. But do not be afraid! Father God is always willing to help you in your weakness, and He will never leave you nor forsake you. He is a freind by your side, if you want Him. He has and is all you ever shall need. Get close to the True Lord of All Creation and you wont be dissapointed! He made you and He loves you. May peace be with you...
Joshua
ps. also, I wrote a poem about something like what you seem to have gone through during a similar experiance in my life... its called 'candlelit'. you might find it encouraging! |

Very sad piece....and i'm taken by its brutal
honesty. If ever there was a way to soothe
the burn, it's writing fine poetry like this....
"God, all I ever wanted was
Somebody to shelter my fears"
You'll find that special someone i'm sure of it :)
Take care, you have my best wishes

This might sound sort of odd, Sue - but when I read something like this... I see hope there on the page. That is not to say that I have overlooked the pain expressed or don't empathize... not at all. Rather, it just a silver-lining sort of view... I suppose I just see it as a conclusion, an opportunity to move beyond the hurt and toward something that lifts you up instead of bringing you down. Many (myself among them once) linger a long while in that painful place before moving on... the hope I see here comes of realizing you're no longer there.
*hugs*

| I know this...I've felt this time and time again. You expressed the pain and anguish exquisitely. It's unbearable right now, I know, but you're truly a strong person and I know you'll get through it. Hugs |

aw Susie Q! Dear sweetest of hearts, do not be troubled. I can not
imagine anyone not being drawn to your kind and gentle soul. You
exude so much warmth, dear girl and I know someone out there
is going to be OH so lucky to be the recipient of your loving heart.
This write evokes much sadness in me and how well you know,
I do relate. Lovely write sweetie.
Love and hugs

God this sounds like me; and yet, I scared Mr. Perfect away. So fear comes in many packages, despite anyone that we love. Sometimes it's not the object of our love that's the problem but fear itself. Just living well is acknowledging but, also, letting go.
Bravo! This is a brilliantly ascribed, so packed with meaningful rich emotion.

So sad to read this, love based on deception is never real love. A truly beautiful out pour of your emotions. Wish you well, may you find what your looking for in time.

Such a sad outpouring of emotion onto the page. Each word could be a tear, they are that powerful.
I'm sorry you had to go through this, but I do agree with Snemmy that there is some hope in this, even if its just in the knowledge that you were hurt and can now move on, or if its because you can use this to grow yourself.
Life can be cruel, especially when we try so hard to do the right thing.
Powerful, emotional write,
Dom |
