Cry Me a River

All that we've been through, all you've put me through, you can cry me a river.

All the lies you told and broken promises, you can cry me a river.

All the hanging out late, just cry me a river.

I just don't understand why i put up with all of this, i suppose its due to me loving you.

However, as they say, you don't always have to be with the person you love, especially
when they don't love you back.

So as you cry me this river, think about how far i am up the stream.

L-O-V-E the last line. Strong poem, I see the truth in every line. I like the river theme, I guess I never thought about it that way, I always say just another fish in the sea. I Like this a lot! Thanks for the comment. ~Jen~
