How Could You Let Things Get This Far? Poem by Emily Reid

How Could You Let Things Get This Far?



I have given all my love to you, but what did I get in return?
A broken heart
I have given you my heart, and you stomp on it like a doormat
I have given you my youth and you took advantage of my un-experienced little heart and played with my emotions
I gave you all the trust, but you misused it
I gave you my life and you killed me day by day
I want to pull my aching heart and tear it piece by piece
So I no longer love you
I want to lose my memory so I no longer think of you
I want to go so far so I no longer have to see you
I want to cry but I no longer have any tears to fall down my sad lonely face
I want to sleep but my dreams haunt me with you in them
I can’t seem to find a way out, what do I do?
I don’t want anyone to see this, not even you
How do I get out of this?
How do I stop this misery?
I can’t seem to find anyone to make me feel the way you do
The way you look at me
The way you say my name
The sound of your voice when you tell me that you care
I love you so much that I think I’m going to die from this pain that haunts day and night
How can I forget you?
How can I move on?
I want to break free and move on but I think I’ll be doing something wrong
I just have to let things fly and close my eyes and just let the days pass me by
