loving you was not my decision to make
without knowing it you took my heart away
we started as friends and nothing more
we had many things in comon
you made me laught like no one else could
we would hang out tilled the dawn of day
time to us was inrevelant when were together
but spending so much time together was not a good thing
you stole my heart in a blink
your charms had put a spell on me
without realizing it you held my heart
but it was too late for me to ask for it back
to me you were perfect in every way
just one flaw that I knew would make me brake
you had a taste for woman you couldn't control
you wanted every flavor and color
to taste each and every one
I knew deep in my heart my love for you
would not be enough to quech that thirst deep inside you
but you said you had changed
I had helped you mend your ways
I should've known it was a lie
but I loved you too much to see the truth
I was just another conquest in your book
you're truly a really good friend
but as a lover and boyfriend
you are the biggest mistake
loving you was not my decision
my heart chose for me
but now is time I take matter into my own hands
and end this never ending cycle between you and I
putting my feeling aside not listening to my heart cries
I choose to walk away and leave you behind
as a bitter sweet memory of what we once had
Author notes
I gave my heart and soul to my ex and now his trying to come back.. I know better now thought than to go down that road again.. I have closed the book never to be open again. thought my heart breaks every time I think of him...

Wow
This is an amazing poem. Everything about this poem is incredible. I dont have a favorite part I love the whole thing. This happened to me just resently this guy that liked me and i liked him he took my heart held it in his hand but lied about things that happened in the past. He chases after other girls and then tells me that I am his one and only, and that what happened in the past doesnt matter, what matters is that he wants to be with me and no one else. He has a kid and doesnt even call it his kid he wont claim it. I dont need someone like that I need someone to tell me the truth no matter what it is and be there for me when i need them the most. Im sorry for talking so much about me!!! Your poem is all around incredible and I think that you should keep writing because you are amazing. -

you don't have to say sorry...
I love to hear how people relate to my work... and the emotions they feel.. thank you so much for sharing with me and taking the time to read..I am so glad you liked my poem.. most of the time this is the only way I can express my emotions and move on.... Honey If a man can't even love their own child.. they have no love to give to any one...at all you definetly don't need him in your life his dirt...and I'm glad you see your self worth... sometimes we girls tend to belittle ourselfs too much.. always remember it is their loss not yours keep your head up...
