BE Bailey Poet Rhyme

One Day In My Shoes

If only one day you can feel what you put me through
Wishing one day you can walk in my two shoes

You will feel a pain like you never knew
Feeling cut by a million knives, not only a few
You will cry so many tears, you never knew you had
You will go through that day, constantly feeling sad

You will wish that you’ll stop feeling this way
Praying that this feeling only last for one day
You will feel a pain you can’t describe
You will look for places where you can go hide

You will send me a message and I won’t reply
You will keep on asking a million whys’
You will see me choosing other people over you
You will not understand what you are going through

You will see me disrespecting you, causing you so much pain
And your sunny days will be filled with rain
You will long for me and will feel no connection
You will look in the mirror staring at a broken reflection

You will feel all the hurt and it won’t bother me
You will wish what you go through I can only see
You will drive to me and I will treat you bad
And your sad moments will get more sad

You will think of me, wishing you can make it right
I wouldn’t want to talk things out and prefer to fight
You will feel how it cuts you to the core
Having that feeling that you are no longer adored

You will fight so hard for us, but will be fighting alone
While I’m in my “whatever” zone
You will see how I am being selfish 
Wanting me to change becoming your biggest wish

You will care so much and see how I don’t care
You will feel that this really isn’t fair
You will wish for that one day to end
And will feel like nothing your heart can mend

Paul Callus October 13, 2015 at 4:01 PM Hi Bee! Came looking for you:) been some time since you last posted on here. I had missed this lovely, sad and expressive poem. I can tell that you put your heart and soul into it. I know that we should forgive, but it is so hard to forget all the pain that a person can cause. ~ Wishing you all the best...take care. hugs // paul BE Bailey October 21, 2015 at 6:32 AM Hi Paul. Oh how good it is to hear from you. Thank you so much for your comment. I agree with it 100%, but I am so proud of my heart :) Had been through so much, but it can still forgive and love. It is the only way moving on from a heartbreaking experience. By forgiving and moving forward. A lot has changed since I wrote this poem. You should check out my latest poem "One more thing" it explains everything :) Have a superb day. Biggest hugs "B"

James Horn October 2, 2015 at 6:46 AM BEB, Took my breath away and I had to slow down reading this tremendous, enjoyable yet sad poem. And it all goes on and on. Jim Horn BE Bailey October 5, 2015 at 3:35 AM Thank you so much James for your comment and taking the time to read my work. Regards "B"

Victor Nwakanma August 6, 2015 at 8:35 AM nice BE Bailey August 12, 2015 at 3:46 AM Thank you Victor. Have a good day. "B"

Eric Boddie August 4, 2015 at 10:39 AM you words are so inspiring....the ills of extreme desiring....a message that needs to be heard....so wield that power of the written word....;) BE Bailey August 12, 2015 at 3:45 AM Thank you Eric. I am happy if my words can inspire others. Thank you for your comment. Regards "B"

Milton Robertson July 29, 2015 at 7:01 AM Love is lovely and love can be a shame, when you try to use love to play a silly game. Love is also vengeful when a person not true, the pain you cause love will turn it on you. BE Bailey August 3, 2015 at 6:18 AM :) Thank you so much for your lovely poetic comment Milton. Have a superb day. Hugs "B"

Aurore Severo July 28, 2015 at 9:58 AM I have felt heartache, I like this poem very much. BE Bailey July 29, 2015 at 6:35 AM Thank you Aurore. I appreciate your comment. Have a blessed day. Hugs "B"

Kelly Deschler July 27, 2015 at 1:33 PM I'll never understand how some can be so heartless and cold to those closest to them... A deeply emotive and very well written poem, B. I can certainly feel your pain in these lines... Congrats on a great win! BE Bailey July 28, 2015 at 2:05 AM It definitely is a difficult one to understand Kelly, but I can honestly say that I learned so much about myself and about life in this hurtful time. Just because they do not care about us, doesn't mean we should stop caring about ourselves. We are worth more than that. We are the authors of the life we want to live and sometimes we need to walk away from the things that no longer serves us. Thank you for your comment and have an awesome day. Much love and big hugs "B"

Emile Pinet July 22, 2015 at 8:15 AM This is written by the hand of a woman who has felt love, fear, exultation, grief, guilt, pain and dismay sift through her hands like the sands of time. The deep pool of emotion poured forth in this work almost drowns the reader in self contemplation feeling each emotion so skillfully enlisted by the author. Emile. Darlene Gifford July 23, 2015 at 6:20 PM I'm so happy for you, BE, as I mentioned before, but you wrote a poem worth of your high win. Keep it up!~~Darlene BE Bailey July 23, 2015 at 4:33 PM Your comment really touches me and I feel honored to share all these emotions with all my poetry sisters and misters. This is the one place that became one of my favorite places to visit real quick and one can express and share any situation and really get to be yourself. Thank you so much for your comment and support Emile. Hugs "B"
