More Than I Can Bear

I found myself in a pool of tears i almost soaked in it,hundreds of thoughts run so fast like an antelope to my mind I was stupefied when I heard my less good Damped within inside and my bone goes limp It battered me like an iron clattered on the ground Lodged in my heart like a heavy load To her, I an incompetent, when world knock you down Try to arouse your good mood that was always my thought, I am a good looking guy but poor! I know Having loving heart, but poor! I know Always focused on poetry, think of nothing else, wish to be the foremost among the best to make her proud of me, lack of care, she said because am lack of cash As we all known woman needs not only love but also cash I tried to stifle her irritation but all were just in vain However, we have not married yet, but all my aim is that she will be my helpmate With many relationships I have encounter Soon she will tell me to take my mind off her Soon my heart will be left in pain Soon my heart will be empty and uncertain Soon she will leave me in this lonely war This is more than I can bear I can't stand it no more 8/6/2015

It's sounds like you were too much in love with the wrong woman when you wrote this. I sure hope things have improved for you now. I really liked reading this older poem of yours.

this is a really sad poem, the pain almost feels like a knife to the heart, sadly its a poem most young people including me, will easily identify with - the world has become so material and love so commercial -if she says you cant afford ..mi.. look in the mirror say unto you... tomorrow my star will be so bright you will beg for my number ****blessings and happiness to you
