Were so young,
we got lives ahead of us,
so why do you keep rushing me.
We started off as friends,
It turned into a little more,
we started to hangout,
I thought you were perfect.
We were a cute couple,
you pushed the relationship to far,
when you asked me to marry you,
I said I wasn't ready.
I want to move,
leave my old life behind,
but I can't do that,
with your hand in mine.
You were part of my life,
the biggest part at that,
but we still have the memories,
can't we leave it at that?
You threaten to kill yourself,
If im not in your life,
You say you'll take all thoes pills,
and leave everything behind.
I tried to stop you,
I told you no,
I said you were full of shit,
and you were putting on a show.
I told you we were done,
I coundn't deal with it no more,
Then you asked me for a second chance,
and I told you no.
So he moved on in life,
at least he's still alive,
I moved out of town,
Now why can't I move on??
Author notes
True story, he played the guilt trip on me by threatning to kill hisself, but I couldnt stand the thought of someone MABEY killing there selves over me. So I had to let him go, even though I didnt want to.

That must've been hard to deal with, and you show your struggle well. However, this could definitely become better if you did a quick spelling/grammar check. Well done and good luck!

I love poetry as a means to let things out, and to just... get things off your chest... I find it help me a lot anyway...
The poem is raw and solid. A good write in any right. X
