The War

I feel this pain inside me and its passing through my veins,                                                          To live a second without you makes me grow deeply insane..                                                 The love we once shared is all lost,                                                                                          You should have known my love came without a cost..                                                            Now all that remains is the feeling of resent..                                                                          My heart is broken beyond amend                                                                                         My strength is drained and my soul is weak, my heart is numb and it will forever be..            I'm not strong enough like i once was and it hurts to see that i can never recover.                I should have remained a heartless soul                                                                                 A stone as i would say is what i should have been more.                                                        Just like a statue you see on a bend, made of rock, brick and cement.                                    But you stole my heart and tricked me,                                                                                    And today i lie here in defeat.                                                                                                  I've lost all hope and i'll never see you again.                                                                          So you can finally say that you've won the war my friend.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life."

Never fight for someone who won't return the favor. This was deep, yet sad. Nicely done!
