decide

My heart is breaking yet I can’t walk away
With you is where I will forever stay
I promised a long time ago to never give up on you
And promises I don’t break I stay forever true
I have stood by your side for so many years
through all the pain and every single salty tear
It is time to grow up and finally settle down
Stop all the games and aimless running around
I have given you everything and have nothing to hide
Where we go from here is left for you to decide
I love you more with each closing of the day
But I need to know if with me is where you will stay
You cast you accusations as if they are stones
And just like it is said they can break bones
But it is not my bones they break it is my heart
Slowly and surely just ripping it apart
I’m doing all I can to show the strength of my love
Yet away from you is where I keep being shoved
You never show emotions, I don’t know how you feel
And your angry words cut me like invisible steel
Why is it you keep me from ever getting close?
Some times it feels as if your heart is completely froze
I have always loved you since our very first kiss
Ands through all these years it is the one I always missed
I have given you everything that I have inside
Where we go from here is left for you to decide

    This whole piece is amazing! Your lines like "cut me like invisible steel" and "not my bones they break, it's my heart" are so honest and touching, biting but poetic. Great job on this! I hope things work out for you. Sounds like a really hard time to get through. Keep writing. You're magnificent! Thanks,
    Sheryl

    Awww...this is so cute. Although, sometimes it's not the best thing to do, to leave your own decisions in the hands of someone else...this piece makes a very good point. If this is infact about you, personally...I know how you're feeling. Anyways, this piece flowz! Great job, thanks for sharing!

    great write!

    wow! wonderful topic and great write. my favorite part:

    You never show emotions, I don’t know how you feel
    And your angry words cut me like invisible steel
    Why is it you keep me from ever getting close?
    Some times it feels as if your heart is completely froze
    I have always loved you since our very first kiss
    Ands through all these years it is the one I always missed
    I have given you everything that I have inside
    Where we go from here is left for you to decide
