I thought you wanted be alone
You know get your thoughts together
Find where you are at in life
Stopping to smell the roses
Other things like that
So I Didn't Push
Push you to make a choice
Push you to say you're sorry
Sorry for wasting my time
Sorry for hearing you whine
No I Didn't Push
I chilled
letting you walk in
and out of my life
Eat my food
Use my phone
Listening to all your
baby this and baby that
No I Didn't Push
Well Hear This
Go find yourself
with yourself
by yourself
Cause I thought you wanted to be alone
Author notes
I recently got out of a relationship where I was used. I fed in to the lies he was feeding me. I forgave him for many things because I thought he loved me. LIES! He didn't and when I figured that out i got rid of him.

Good for you!
I hate being used! I'm glad you caught on. Some people become obsessed with the idea of being in love that they won't let go, no matter what. Shows you've got a good head on your shoulders. We're all human.
Good write, and best of luck in the contest. -
A beautiful poem that truly speaks from the heart. Great write, and congrats on all the wins. Keep it up.

Man, do I know how you feel or what? You should write a second half to the poem where you really let go and don't hold anything back. So glad you entered.

Good job. I know how it is to feel like you don't want to be overbearing on someone and it turns out that they're stabbing you in the back. Good write. Thank you for entering.

I have to say that because I am a rocker chic of sorts. Thanks for the Entry. ~Amanda~

its good to hear that you had the sense to take hold of your life and remove wat was holding you back. not many people can or will do that, they just simply let life pass them by, while takign the blows in strides.this poem is an excellent way to show some one how to take hold.

Returning The Favor
Takes 2 to Tango - but if you were being used and abused - them maybe it's time to reconsider the relationship - we have been together 50 years and there were times it looked like it wasn't working - give God a chance to heal your relationship - The poem lacks rhyme but does dance along very well - Bless God - Joe
-
I liked it
I must be honest i have defintely been through this before. I feel your pain and liked the poem -
Wow! I love those last two lines! I love the whole thing, but those are my fav! The whole attitude that you drew in this poem is so relatable! Very nice!
-
