Farewell

A poem for my ex

By RissiePublished 5 years ago 1 min read

I know in this life we do not choose with whom we fall in love with

I just wish you hadn't strung me along

Though in truth I must blame myself for getting hurt

Your reluctance was something I ignored, like the fool I am

Half a year, and all I have to show for it is pain and sorrow...

You know I dare not greet you for fear I shall cry again?

At first I did not blame thee, but now?

I do indeed in part...

It hurt, this heart of mine broken once more by disappointment disguised as the sweetest angel

I have learned mine lesson, no longer shall the walls of my heart be lowered so easily

Never again shall I entrust you with this fragile heart, thou hast shattered it twice already and I do believe that is enough

I do not wish to appear petty and bitter, so I shall wish you happiness and bid you farewell

Farewell and good luck
