Punch Drunk in Reverse

I tried to write a letter to you yesturday
But I couldn't find the right words,
The right words to say.


There were too many heartaches,
Too many "I don't care"s
There were too many mistakes,
Too many "I don't want you here"s

The swelling has finally subsided
The bruise has begun to fade
Mabey I'm just short-sighted
I still miss your verbal blade.

I almost came home yesturday
But my new boy saved me,
Saved me from the game you play.

Author notes

Sean, CG and a Punch in the face. Bending backwards, only time can try to erase.

    This was really strong and really spoke out, I really liked this line

    "I still miss your verbal blade"

    The ending was good too. I love how some americans spell yesterday as yesturday. But apart from that this was excellent.

    this is really good.
    Although, i think its supposed to be maybe, nt mabe?
    anyway, i really enjoyed reading this, i love the line

    'I still miss your verbal blade.'

    that is an awesome line and probably my fave in the whole poem...just proves that words can hurt as much as physical pain.

    i like the way its been set out, and the flow and structure of the poem is also really good...great write!
