The Painful Truth

I close my eyes to imagine your face but pain invades and the image is erased tears gather at the corner of my eyes as i sit and remember all of your lies I try to reach out to see if your there but the feeling is cold and your presence is bare reality stings as i tremble alone searching for answers im left only to roam puzzled and confused and in terrible disbeleif how your goodbye was so sudden and unexpectantly brief I struggle with knowing with what i should do how to cope with the loss of someone I knew but after what you did I know it was wrong still you were the one to leave and be gone I had hope that forgiveness would be more than enough but as i was trying you chose to give up now im left with emotions of many different shades and the connection is gone as your memory fades

I really like your poem. It truly describes a failed relationship and the emotions involved. Was it inspired by personal experience?
