Nothing

I should have never gave my all to him. EVER. 
I thought he loved me back. But I guess I was 
blinded by all the lies he constantly fed me.
Now I'M the one stuck here with all this hurt, 
he left me here to feel like nothing but a tiny speck of dirt.
He said he couldn't trust me, 
Yet I sat there and I was in a constant war to keep him 
by my side.
Now I'm stuck with abiding tears. 
I can barely see.
All I care about is him, still. 
I bet all he's thinking right now is, "damn, i wasted six months
 on NOTHING."
Because that's all I am, & all I'll ever be.
...nothing.

You are not "nothing" you are a poet and each one of us has something "special" to give and one day, you will find a man, who sees your inner beauty and this one will be "nothing but a speck of dirt" ~~

Halee don't let any guy or person make you feel like you're nothing.. 'Cause if that is the case then he or they are nothing as well.. A thought provoking write from the heart.. Welcome to the Soup, hope you enjoy it here ;-) WN
