Love Lies Lead To a Lonely Decision

My life shouldn't be like this
With no hugs or loving kiss
From a true love that won't leave
I am fighting to believe
there is someone who wont break
My heart I give them to take
My dreams of love were getting lost
With every man that used and tossed
All my feelings to the curb
Leaving my mind so disturbed
Never knowing what I did
As my love life slowly slid
Further away every time
Someone lied that they'd be mine
Each lie broke apart another
Piece that I gave to a lover
Promising I'll never get hurt
Giving into every flirt
And sweet words having me believing
Each new one will not be fleeing
Secretly into the night
To hold another sweetheart tight
My options were getting thin
Should I just begin again
Giving someone one more shot
Not to break my weakened heart
Or live alone, sad and keeping
All my love and care from seeping
Into more hurt and heartache
What kind of choice should I make
The decision wasn't tough
My heart was broken enough
So now I live quietly
With no arms for holding me

Just That Archaic Poet Date: 11/21/2013 9:49:00 AM Like Peter, I also felt the sadness. The great thing about your poems is that you always manage to evoke an emotion in the reader, which, as I said, is what I think the poet's job is: to be a pricker of emotions. Kudos, Sweet Pea! <3 Login to Reply
