The Last Time Poem by Derrick Andrews

I'm hopeless, worthless, pitiful, simply a barren, lost cause,

And I'm not doing this for your attention, so hold your damn applause,

There's nothing you could say or do, to repair the damage done,

Because I'm dead inside, I long to hide, my feelings for that one,

I wish I knew how to do it, I wish I could just move on,

But she's so much more than someone I've just laid my eyes upon,

Love, plain and simple, just like I said, just never seems to work,

Her face remains, Stuck in my head, I hide my pain with a smirk,

But I have someone to heal this pain, and speed up my sluggish healing,

She always seems to soothe my brain, though my heart is torn and peeling,

And even though the pain I feel burns deeper through my soul,

I'll always have my best friend, to make me feel as if I'm whole,

So no longer will I chase after you, you've hurt me far too much,

No longer do I want us two, or long for your touch,

No longer will I stay up late, hoping you care about me,

Because its obvious your doing great, your quite content without me,

I won't sit here a second longer, to mourn over the past,

I'll get over it, I'll grow stronger, I'll be the one who laughs last,

I'm moving on, though it will be hard, I'll get over what I lost,

All I need is time, eventually, my heart will soon de-frost...
