It was foolish to believe
that true love could be for me...
Impossible to think that I could feel
the purest power of love,
sent down from the Lord above,
a power man nor beast could ever steal.
Now there remains no more light,
as if by the loss of sight,
deep down within the chambers of my mind.
How did I not ever see
that you could never love me?
Now both love and I are said to be blind.
Now I wander in the dark,
this sorrow has made its mark.
My heart races, the fear spreads through my soul.
I am drowning in my pain,
terror fills my jumbled brain
because nothing can escape pain's black hole.
Now I lay my love to rest,
it will fade away at best...
All these thoughts of mine will rip me apart.
These emotions make me sick...
Please, make this painless and quick!
I overdosed on tears and broken heart!
Author notes
This was something I wrote a while back after finding out that someone that I had wanted to ask out for years had a boyfriend. I was crushed, but have no idea why when i look back on it...

Please feel free to make comments and offer advice on the work. However, I don't need advice on love, thanks.

Nice
Hey, I love your poem. It's really good. It's very heartfelt. Keep up the good work. For the last line, I think it might sound a bit better if you say "and a broken heart!" instead of "and broken heart!" But it's really up to you. Otherwise, it's great. ^-^ I like your title, but you only talk about it once in the last line, so you might consider revising it. But again, it's up to you. It's your poem. Have a great one!
