Saying Goodbye

Saying goodbye was not what I want to do,
Had you left me alone, I was happy with you

Making me go home at the end of the day,
You’ve done everything to push me away

People cloud you and lay up in your home
I can’t even get, just a call on my phone

The beer the drugs, the thuds all come there,
You expect me to think all is clear?

You tell me you love me…
Now what do I see?
A bitch in your bed and “hey” it’s not me…

My life was straight’ until I met you…
Now I’m here and alone with nothing to do

Tonight I pray as I lie in my bed
Wishing that this was all in my head

I’m closing my eyes and dreaming of you
Asking my self, what did I do?

I hope you can understand and have never been there.

    I plan to revise this poem: please leave constructive criticism!

    oh, I've been there, but maybe a long, long time ago..back in the 70's... the era of free love, everything was sex and drugs.

    This is a very sad poem, beautifully written, that I'm sure a lot of us can relate to, especially trippy little hippies, like me!

    one typo at the end- "Tonight I pray as I lye in my bed"

    lye should be *lie

    lye is a corrosive alkaline substance.

      Thank you Debbie, When I wrote this, my mind was not where it should of been. To much heartache to stop and think. Much appreciated.

    This is so true. I've often felt like this myself. Great second paragraph, "make me...".

    You were so right in your comment on my poem. I would say "Welcome" to this place but for the sorrow that you should be here. For you know so well as I that this is not such a great place to be. I am so sorry for your heartache, tis a pain I know so well. You express it in your own unique way. And the ending line describes it best.
