You've taken from me something so precious
You've stolen my heart and hidden it in the depths of your craveces
I have let you take it because I believe you will take care of it
You have given me no reason to believe that you will trample on it and return it
Destroyed and no longer the precious gift I had given you

I am amazed at how calously you gave it back, without an ounce of regret
With such great ease, you just throw it back in my face as though I had not given it to you carefully and gently
You exposed me and then you burnt me
You let me open myself up only to shut the door in my face

My mind, my body, my soul
They can't seem to let you go
I'm in a personal struggle of sanity
A tug of war of letting go
I am lost in this war, it is messing with me

My heart needs to heal
This feeling is so crippling
And the constant memory of you
The constant reminder that you are alive
But that I am no longer a part of your life
That the chapter between us is closed

The book that was a work in progress
Ended so abruptly
Final distination, final sentence
The end...

Wow Misscha - This poem is filled with emotion. Lost Love does suck. Been there myself - It does help to write about it though - It's a great release. - You captured this perfectly in this piece. Nice Work! Keep on writing!

a plea from a wounded heart, warming to the ear ........... a gentle reproach, touched with caution, this is what i hear, Staggering in its conception , steeped in deception, resolute aprehension and lastly comprehension.

so moist with love still. its evident that this character loved this tug of war. and is now trapped in themselves. this a great poem. full of emotions and the rhythm was calm. the ending was a great one

thank you for the complement and the character is still stuck in the tug of war in a way but finding a way to let go...-

A precise account of the 'self' , beautifully expressed and real, too.

Poetry is not an expression of the party line. It's that time of night, lying in bed, thinking what you really think, making the private world public, that's what the poet does.

Allen Ginsberg (1926-1997) U.S. poet.
