Yours Truly

 

Darling, from me to you
This means so much more
Than it ever did before
Even when we hit that brick wall
And I thought it was over - between me and you
Funny how things fit together
Even in my cloudy weather
I can't fathom how I got here
It's amazing
I'm speechless

So on this day
I say to you
Thanks for nothing
Adieu, adieu
I don't want to be just happy
That's what friends are for
I want someone you can love
Like yours truly
But I don't seem to match up
So here is you roses and your box of candy
I know you think I'm a jerk
But I'm just being candid
It's hard to love someone
Who cares more about shopping sprees and The O.C.
Than me

I'm sorry
Don't cry
I'm heading for the sunset, thinking things through
About how I could have done better
Than you

Signed, Yours Truly

 

Author notes

I wrote this for Valentine's Day, but I wanted it to be a very unique poem. And this is what came of that idea.

    This doesn't really have a surprise ending, so I don't know how much of a fit this is, but it was a nice take on a 'dear john' letter

    The OC is the best program in the worlddd!!! I care more about that than everything. Lol. Jokes it is amazing though. Anyways, back to the point! This was really amazing, it is very unique, and sad how little some people take others for granted and dont treat them with as much love as they should! Great write =] xx

    Well that sure isn't the type of Valentine a girl would want but then again some deserve this. I do like the O.C and shopping spree's but give me a man in my house and I would rather stay home everyday Love, C
