When I wanted someone there,
To care.
You weren't there.
Or anywhere.
When I needed someone prepared,
To share.
You weren't there.
Anywhere.
Now you think of me to be,
The one...
Selfish.
Now you think of me to be,
The one,
Ignoring your wants and needs.
I've stopped,
Keeping you among my wishes.
I've stopped,
Keeping you among my dreams.
I have stopped,
Keeping you inside my heart.
Finding it available,
To break apart.
I've stopped,
Being dropped like a rock.
And I have stopped,
Pretending I can't cry...
With a pushing my emotions,
To the curb denied.
When I needed someone there,
To care.
You weren't there.
Anywhere.
Now,
You think of me to be,
The one...
Selfish.
Now,
You think of me to be...
The one,
Ignoring your wants and needs.
I've stopped,
Thinking...
What it is of me you believe.
I've stopped,
Hoping...
Those opinions that you have,
Of me would leave.
I've stopped!

17874 poems? ? ? ? ? ? ? It's a word record. Way back in 2006, that's 11 years ago, you were one of the lively poets and critics on Poemhunter. Now this place is swamped by vermin; I call them Ninjuns. I missed the bunch that encouraged me 11 years ago. They have faded away. Today PH is a nightmare. We have been invaded by people who can't read and write English.
