The Pointless Wish Poem by Natalie Rosario

The Pointless Wish

You were all of my wishes
And you were my disease
A lost cause is what you turned out to be
All this time wasted
Believing in my fantasies and misreading you
I guess you lied
But with you i'm never sure
I was your puppet
I did whatever you needed or wanted
I had a hope you will be mines again
But I was wrong
Like always
Shame on me for creating these futures in my mind
Which were impossible
I see you live on gliding through life
Avoiding anything that will make you think
Including me
I tried my best to crack you
but it came with so much
What was I to you?
You did nothing for me
I realize that now
You brought me only heartache and pain
Should I even consider you a friend
For you have caused me as much pain as any enemy
So why not watch me hurt?
I did nothing
And you were the mean one
In fact
You threw my heart against the wall
And set me on fire
And just walked away
Soon the evidence of your wrong will be gone
I won't take long to burn
I realize how much I'm worth to you when you don't even stop and stare
