True Love

I used to think that you were my Edward Cullen, My Alexander Sterling. But now I see that you're a Jacob Black, A Jagger Maxwell, And that your going nowhere fast. I can't believe that I let you lead me so far astray, Astray from the true course in my life. Is there any part of me left unbroken? Is she absolutely necessary to your survival? Can't you see that I'm just as good for you as she is? Or are you too blind?

Love seems never to be about what's good for us as much as it's about chemistry and a drive to procreate. Move on and find someone who values you for your spirit 1st you'll have better luck starting as good friends. Light & Love

Hmmm...i have to say, i dont like your reference to Jacob and Edward, ive read those boooks and everyone has their opion but Jacob isnt bad like so many "Edward fans" calim him to be. I love both of them. besides that, its a good powerful poem. Im sorry for your pain that youve had, so many of us go through what we dont deserve. ~Jese

So full of pain Shelby the lady in the poem has reached her breaking point. Nice strong write.
