I left her
She needed someone
It wasn't me
We tried to work it out
She was so unhappy
I loved her so much
I left for her
I ran as far as i could
So she could be happy
I didn't want to go
But it was killing her
To see me around
Now it's killing me
Not seeing her
I wish I could
If only for a moment
I would tell her
I missed her
I would tell her
I left so she could start over again
I hear she has someone new
I hope they are happy
I hope she's happy
I want her to feel the love
I once felt for her

I miss her

It's such a problematic poem yet lovely.
You were my cure,
I was your disease.
While I was killing you,
You were saving me.

OMG
You make it so easy to relate! It's so sad, and so beautiful! I almost cried -really! It was absolutely well done, and I just really...liked it! Fantastic job! Thanks for entering -good luck! -
this is so good. i love it. missing some one is so hard. i cant imagine living without someone that means so much to me.
-
It's a sad, but true poem. Full of emotion, an emotion I have felt. It hurts so much that you cause them so much pain and all you want was to see them happy.
Thanks for entering and good luck

wow this was beautiful.. it made my heart stop for a second there.. I would not change a thing. Great work and I will be adding this to the finalist list.. maybechange the backround tho.... idk it just throws off the mood
-
heartbreak poems arn't usualy my thing, but it was a decent write
-
This has to be one of those poems that for me, seems so perfect in every way. Your thoughts make the reader want to read and read again. Thoughts that really incorporate deeper meanings! Your a finalist!

Take care,

Good luck.

Nice job. I have no doubt that you deserved gold in the "The Silence of Love" contest, at least. This is beautifully sad. Great write. Thanks for sharing.

thank you!

Apostrophes needed: wasn't, didn't, it's, she's. Will make it easier to read when you have them in. Liked the poem...

thank you i know im so proud i havent won anything so far at it feels so good to have one under my bellt makes me feel alittle better abot myself
-

Thought this was just what was wanted in the contest. A few words need apostrophes, and if added that would make this an excellent poem. Thanks for entering. Sad but this shows love in the fullest form - giving her up so she can find true love.
-
-
sorry for my ignorance but where do i need the apostrophes? im sorry if i sound stupid i just cant find them lol
-
-
Very deep and heartfelt. the rhythm was well done. i felt the stuttered pace of it seemed to reflect the back and forth of the mind, and how we fight ourselves in this situation and have to force to get the words out at times. you realy captured the spirit of this poem well done
Good Luck and Thanks for entering

quiet sad (even to read)...however, it should be "they are" instead of "their" in line number 23.
