A New Day

so here i am, pretty much over the pain
now just  trying not to go insane
cant help it but i feel emotionally drained.

a bad start to the week 
i am lost, everything i  want to seek
loving him has made me weak

i lay awake in bed, hard to sleep
my feelings are running way to deep
2 wrongs dont make a right, but i want to creep
my feelings for him i dont want to keep

he touched me last night
the sex amazing but it just aint right
i want to erase him from my sight
my future with him aint looking to bright

so i am left to sort out all the emotions
still giving him all my devotion
but his love is like a curse, and i was given that potion
now i am just going through the motions.

Black Eyed Susan Date: 4/4/2011 8:26:00 AM i'm curious about why you went from a 3 line stanza to a 4 ? Also, some of your sentences are a little awkward like "my feelings for him I don't want to keep." In addition, I'm not sure what you mean by "but i want to creep" and I don't understand if his is love a curse or a potion? They seem contradictory to me. However, I like the line "loving him has made me weak" I thought it was the most powerful line in your poem.
