Had Enough

I've had enough
Of the lies and deceit
I admit defeat
You win 
I lose
My heart torn in two
All done by you
So many years wasted
So many tears tasted
All wasted on you
I've had enough
Enough of the deceit
Enough of the defeat
Enough of the heartbreak 
Enough of the soul you take
I've had enough
Enough of you

Actually I think you 'win' Matthew by taking a stance against the negativity. Forgive yourself for taking the abuse for so long and move on and be happy. Good write! Hugs

very good poem, that is how I felt with this woman I wanted to date. I was ready to make my move out of the friend zone. She never made time for me. Some people are meant to be in your life others are not. Take care.

hey, this is good! I hope you forgive this person even after all this pain. I was once told that "Forgiveness cannot change the past, but it does enlarge the future". -Jerry Najera

Thanks for the rhyme form sample. That's good leaving her/her with guilt and you've had enough means you're stopping and let her feel what a fool she is to let you go.
