Array ( [sid] => 19219 [catid] => 1 [aid] => Mick [title] => Scars Made By You [time] => 2003-06-18 09:05:00 [hometext] => I wrote this poem for my wife Tammy, who never gave our marriage a chance. [bodytext] => There are wounds deep inside of me, no one will ever see
They hurt from time to time, your voice won’t let them be.

Echoes in my ear repeating the cruel things you’ve said
Tears soaking my pillow, while lying in my bed.

There was a time it all made sense, but now it’s all confused
How you could be so misleading, all I feel is used.

The whispers of “I love you”, and your deceiving smile
Were only just a cover up, for your manipulating style.

The promises you made were selfish and hollow like your heart
You never put your trust in me, not even from the start.

The day you said “I do”, it must have been a game
For two short months later, you “no longer feel the same”?

How can you sleep at night, and say your feelings were true?
How can you leave me with these scars, intentionally made by you?

You construct a good poem
-----------------------------------
Two months is really nothing
In the world of make believe,
Lift your head and smile broadly,
Leave your tears upon your sleeve.
-----------------------------------------
I'm sure by now you realize
you were taken for a ride,
That this event is nothing
When you seek another bride...

heartbreaking write but well done just the same. Im sorry this happened to you but you deserve better. It hurts but better to find out after two months than go on for 14 years like I did my first marriage.

Michelle,
Thank you for the comment! I'm sorry this happened too, it was not what I was hoping for my wife and I, but as you said, at least I found out early, rather than later. I'm sorry to hear you found out after 14 years, I can't imagine what you must have went through! Yes, it hurts...hurts like hell...finding a way to get through this is going to be my biggest challenge to date.

Norm-
While I appreciate your comment, I DON'T appreciate you referring to my marriage as "really nothing", or because it was so short I should act or pretend it was “nothing” to me. Though short it may have been, the feelings were VERY real I assure you! This is NOT something that I’ll get over in a matter of days or a few weeks because of it's length, the hurt from this will certainly last much longer!!! My marriage was NOT, "nothing" to me, rather a serious commitment I made to her, one I had hoped would last a lifetime. So by implying that I’ll look back upon this as “nothing” when I “seek” another bride is a bit insulting. Perhaps I read too much into your comment, and misunderstood what you were trying to say, but you did how ever leave it open for much speculation. In the future if you choose to comment on one of my poems I’d prefer you didn’t do it in the manner of another poem, I find that a bit annoying. Thank you.
