The End

I'm sorry that it has to be this way, My mind is made up as of today, You shouldn't have made that decision without me, I'll pack my things and get ready to leave. I guess you feel pretty dumb now, All the promises ,hopes, and dreams, You have really let me down, If you didn't plan on keeping them, Why did you make those promises to me? I hope you realize what you have given away, All the past we have together, I thought you would beg me to stay, I thought that you would have tried a little harder, But you just let me go, You didn't even barter. I'm sure this hole will fill up someday, The Lord will make all my pain go away, you'll be a distant memory, Of all the things that never got the chance to be!

Shelli, a deep first poem. , Stopping by with a nice, sweet Welcome to Poetry Soup. I will find much delight, in reading and in time become familiar with your way of writing. But, for the mean time, I will greet you with the same smile, other poets passed when I first join the soup 4 years ago. I wish you the best when it comes to your poems. I hope you get to meet all the nice poets around here. Starting with me. SKAT :-) Please drop a hello and tell me a little about yourself if you like. I would like to be your newest poetry soup "FRIEND". Hugs* SKAT
