The Lesson Poem by Leanna Page Markgraf

Spare me your words
and listen to mine.
I cannot fall in love
this is not the right time.

You come back in my life
and destroy my pride.
Leave me drowned
with the black tears I've cried.

My weakness is your love
but I am too strong to let it through.
The best thing I can do now
is get rid of you.

Thanks for the pain
I wish we never met.
You were the lesson I had to learn
and a mistake I will never forget.
