Poem Commentary

love's unkind game

Never to be loved

I often wonder why he didn't see ,
that i was doing much more than playing house .
I did what made him happy , even though it sacrificed my own happiness.

Tides of crashing disobiedience towards my parents ,
thought he'd see past the " ruin me schemes".

It's true I'm beautiful , it's true I'm not perfect,
now that you know this, your love has decreased,
yet, in the beginning you told me everyone has a past.
Why did you sleep with me if you thought i was moving too fast?

I thought you were mature enough to leave the little boys playground, thought the way you made me moan in the bed was a sign . especially when you lay real close and grind.

It was first in my eye , that gleam , when you said you loved me made me cream. My heart couldn't rationalize it being anything more than a dream .

Why didn't you save me , left me dirty and crying , a hopeless romantic, the agony of my burst ed heart.
each destroyed throbbing part.

I thought you were the answers to my riddle , a true knight , the fire in my heart was extinguished and cold,
the way you used me, then left me , was  lingering and bold.

See in my mind was scorched the idea of a perfect man on a horse , this would only turn out to exist in movies and books , of course. forever chasing what i could never seem to find , only tortured delusions of my own mind .

Everyday i waited in hunger , for you to love me as much as i loved you , for our spirits to inter twine, for something more special than just a tingle down my spine. I let my eyes do the begging , my heart pulled on yours so strong , that it took you years to leave me alone .

Till every sound of your voice , sounded like poison, the very thought of you , mention of your name , brung me undying pain. my mind held captive wrapped in a stray jacket insane .

Wow I love the passion in your words and I get the vibe that you weren't even trying. This is impressive work. It needs to be spoken, not read.

The essence of a broken heart and of love not returned. You have expressed your emotion clearly and the truth of it reminds us all of moments in our lives for truly you are not alone in this story; we are there, too. Love, peace and freedom, Olan.

Thank you Olan , your words linger in my ears as i read your comment , i hope this wont be the case for the masses . I want to believe in true love, many thanks my friend .

In science one tries to tell people, in such a way as to be understood by everyone, something that no one ever knew before. But in poetry, it's the exact opposite.

Franz Kafka (1883-1924) Czech writer.
