Taking my time walking away from you,
I don't want to look back afraid you'll see,
The tears falling down my face are so true,
And I know you feel no remorse to me.
I loved you, I know, but that's overused.
The truth is you were what my life needed,
You filled a void that had been my excuse,
But Now I feel that I've been conceded.
I was used, abused, and chewed and spit out.
I was stupid and foolish to believe.
I wish I had known then I'd have bowed out.
I wouldn't have been so nieve, deceived.
So I'll suck up my tears and not look fooled,
Because there's no reason I should love you.

Please, state for me in your notes, what 'form' of poetry this is-thank you

This is frightening in a good sort of way. At least I know you feel something more than just longing. Let the therapuetic side of poetry help you out.
