In Bleak December Poem by Caitlin Prest
In Bleak December
I loved you back in bleak December,
I loved you then, I'll always remember
how you held me close for hours on end.
But I won't go back, just stay my friend.
I loved you back in bleak December,
I loved you then, I'll always remember
that look you gave me in the snowy weather
as you said goodbye that night.
I loved you back in bleak December,
I loved you then, I'll always remember
those lonely nights and days,
and when my heart was crushed the morning after.
I hold on to that morning in bleak December,
I loved you then, I'll always remember
how I awoke to words that burned my heart
when I saw your message on my phone.
I look back upon bleak December,
I loved you then, I'll always remember
how I felt one year ago, when my injured heart did heal;
yet one piece is yours still, hidden away from me.
My heart still aches from bleak December,
I loved you then, I'll always remember
how I felt and still do feel for you,
I won't walk that road again, because of you, my heart's not whole.
I loved you back in bleak December,
I loved you then, I'll always remember
how I'll never love another because of that night
in desolate, depressing December.
For several months, my boyfriend at the time and I had grown so close to each other. We were in love, and inseparable. On Christmas Eve, we shared our first kiss, and it made December that much better to me. But, 'my heart was crushed the morning after...when I saw your message on my phone', meaning he sent me a break-up text on Christmas morning. For about the next year, I was completely numb. That's why I say, 'how I felt one year ago, when my injured heart did heal' because this poem was written almost exactly a year after it happened. I got over the heartbreak, and I began to date someone else, though it never felt the same, hence 'I'll never love another'. I don't think I'll ever feel the same about someone, but I know that no matter what happens, I won't fall back into his arms after he hurt me so bad.
I hope you enjoy reading my poetry, and I'm going to try to post all of my work in hopes of being discovered by someone and possibly publishing them.
Thank you! XO

Your words are true to yourself and your feelings. Never lose that. What a fool he was for leading you on on such a special and holy night, the next day...trampled underfoot. Just remember Karma! (what goes around...comes around) -Kelly.
