Cheated On and Lied To

I've been cheated on and lied to
yet I still go back for more.
You don't understand my feelings
yet I can't walk out the door.
Your talk is so convincing
you say everything's alright.
I turn around to leave you
and I finally see the light.
You'll never really be mine
you still want to be free.
I guess I finally realized
you'll never love just me.

A vey sad but beautifully written poem, remember in life you ll found happiness but their also be dark, the world is very cruel, they attack on your weaknesses, try to be strong infront of them, never give them any reason to hurt you, never depend on anyone, however I m new on this site and would really appreciate if you could find time to read my poems and give your honest reviews about them

Monica, Welcome to Poetry soup, I hope you enjoy the community. Here, you will find friendly poets who enjoy supporting one another. I myself, enjoy reading and commenting those who want to be read. The only time I give constructive criticism is when a poet desires it. However, if for some reason the poem is not my field I will guide you to someone who is more qualified than I. Stop by and read one of my poems if you like. My poems are not perfect, but I have a feeling you might like one. I encourage you to check out the contest page and read to receive comments. Tell me a little about your poetic skills if you like. It will be my pleasure to follow and read every poem you post from here on :) We are Lucky To Have you. Your New Poet Friend @-> LINDA <-@
