I Left You -------------------------------------------
It's your fault you know?
You messed it all up
You hit me
And didn't repent
You said
"It is the way I am
And I am not going to change"
So two days later
I had to leave
I couldn't handle it
I couldn't deal
I can't believe I blamed it on myself
I can't beleive I said it was my fault
It really wasn't
It was yours
You said you loved me
But how can that be true?
If you love someone you don't hit them
You don't yell at them
Not if you truly love them
So...
I am glad I never loved you
Because in all actuality you never loved me
This is a powerful piece and I can relate to this in so many ways. It hurts to find out that what you thought was love, was not, and it hurts even more when those feelings make you realise you were being used.
The stanza's are not patterned, but then again the story is not in a pattern, its in a slow decline in to depression, which is powerful as each stanza has less and less, showing the degrading non-existant love
wow. this poem is so...impowering in a way. As if you were taking a stand. It gives hope. I really like the tone in this poem. the speaker of this poem (whoever that maybe) is a very inspiring person. :)
