Pacing around,
The streets empty,
The darkness broken
By the light of the moon
But it's not penetrating
The darkness of my heart
And of my soul.
As I walk around,
I think so much,
About what i've done,
And had done in return
I try to say sorry,
I just can't word it!
How can I say,
That I never meant,
To be so cruel,
Or to hurt you at all,
That I never meant,
To lose my temper
Or to raise my voice
How can I show you,
That I want you back,
To hold you again,
To kiss you again.
Pacing these streets,
I realise the truth,
I can never say these things,
Because you would never,
Never understand,
How truly sorry I am,
That you can't realise,
You're in the wrong to,
And as the sun begins to rise,
I know I'll never love again,
Like I loved you,
I'm sorry for breaking you,
But you broke me to.
Please tell me what you think

Unbelieveably accurate

Its a great poem... people say they can relate... i can say... that was written about me and a unknown species... god now i sound like a twit. So yeah. Thanks again hunny. Just to also say.

i like the short staccato lines, but there needs to be more space between the lines, its like you're trying to match free and flowing water with short broken sticks

Well ...
I'm not big on lost love poems, and free verse normally doesn't do much for me, so that's a couple of hits there. You need an extra "o" here:
You're in the wrong to(o),
and here:
But you broke me to(o).
since "to" is a preposition and "too" is an adverb meaning also.
It's been my experience that rarely do these things work out. Once the connection is broken, it's very rarely restablished. The world is full of people, and there's always somebody else out there. I'd say, forget this person and move on.
It's difficult to know how to critique free verse, and I rarely make the attempt, but it looks to me as if you've handled this subject well enough all things considered.

Wow.
This is so emotional and brilliant! I can totally sympathise with this! I love the last lines:
"I'm sorry for breaking you,
But you broke me to."
I'm just gonna say that the last to shouldve been too. But yeah, it's really really great! -
