Cave of Poems

Her Words

WARNING: Mature content dealing with relationship infidelity and insecurity along with depressed thoughts.

It was long ago,
When the love was there,
Now four years have passed,
And it's barely a glimmer.

Day after day,
I see his eyes glow,
Many fleeting emotions,
Shine deep in his soul.

He stares blankly at me,
Doesn't know what to say...
How could he? We're dull-
Doomed to wither away.

I look down at my hands,
But my eyes no longer see,
What lies before me, no...
I see only what must be.

My whole body shakes.
I know I must stand.
My knees wobble,
My mouth tastes bland...

I look him in the eye,
I know what's at stake.
My mouth forms the words...
"My life, you must take."

....To be Continued.

This poem just came to me, inspired by many things I read about relationships gone wrong and the woman feeling she can no longer live...I feel it's wrong but it is a depressing issue.

Gone, Forevermore...

Sore limbs,
Breaking bone,
Lights go dim,
He's coming home.

Throbbing feet,
Cracking joints,
Knees go weak,
He looks and points.

Beating heart,
Rapid pulse,
Turning with a start,
She grins on impulse.

Blinking twice,
Matching eyes,
Wraps like a vice,
Truth become lies.

Joy turns to sorrow,
Smiles to a frown,
Realizing her 'morrow,
Just turned upside down.

'Tis not the man,
In which she knew,
He doesn't give a damn,
How much she grew.

Nor how she loved,
How she waited,
He merely shoved,
And vacated.

Now she stands,
Alone and in pain,
Crumpled, she lands,
Her love now slain.

The man she loved,
Died in war,
Her once beloved,
Gone, forevermore.

Everyone, Forgotten

In this life,
In these days,
people come and
people go away.

They say hello,
They say goodbye,
You're left alone,
You're left to cry.

Where'd they go?
Why'd they leave?
When'd this happen?
You're left to grieve.

I guess that's why they say:
You're better off alone.
What good are friends?
If in the end, they're gone?

Gone...

Part 3: Looking Towards the Future...

Now that I've learned,
Now that I know,
I know what to do,
Know to let go.

I've wished you the best,
I've said my goodbye,
I have nothing to say,
Don't wish to hear lies.

Goodbye to you now,
I choose to move on,
I don't wish to hurt,
...and now I am gone.
