I hate the way you lied to me
And the way you pretended to care
Your voice is always haunting me
And the things you use to do
I want it to go away
And the memory to be erased
But it never works that way
I should have walked away
You should have left me alone
For I was the child
You were the adult
You took away my innocense
My one commitment in life
For that I wish I never met you
I hope you rot in jail
You made me make a mistake
One that could have ended my life
I blame you as the reason
Why I chose the knife
They locked me away
They said I was a hazard
And I regret everyday
About my descioun
I should have thought it through
But I know I did it because of you.

A very sad piece. The flow is so natural and i did like the rhyming. The contemporary touch and the free verse style makes it a good piece. A good simple story. Thanks for entering and goodluck!

whoa, this was very powerful. I have so many questions but I don't want to be nosey. This was very well written. A very angry and sad piece. Yet I can see the broken heart in there too. Very well done. Thanks for sharing
God Bless

This isa very sad thing. I know someone that this has happened to. I am very sorry that this happened to you. It should never happen to anyone. BUT back to why Im commenting...lol
The poem doesnt really have much depth to it.It is a suface poem. (you dont have to think about what the topic is) But the emotion in it is great. Keep writing.
