The Type To Shun Poem by susette varga

Lightening struck
Bolt out of the blue
Head on collision
Hit and run
No longer am i
" The one "
Merely now
The type to shun

Beyond the horizon
I tried to see
Missing you badly
Why so hasty?

Awakening daily
Going crazy
No longer smiling
Empty inside

If truly i was
" The one "
You would never have laughed
Shunned or poked fun

How can i forget you?
I'm dead within
Many tears i cry
Unable to be strong

Reality so very hard
To conceive
Questioning all
That i believed
Deeply tormented
Full of grief
As i try my best
To let you go

In the past
I thought i had loved
Now i know different
I never came close

If only you knew
The depth of my love
Would you think twice
Before breaking my heart?

Without second thought
My life i would give
Selflessly
Sacrifice all for you

The medal i won
Is no longer gold
My honourable emblem
Demoted to bronze

Try as i might
I fail to ignite
The internal combustion
Of love's innermost flame

Increasingly hostile
Irritated frequently
A Scowl now scornfully
Super cedes your smile

Exasperated by unwanted affection
My devotion sorrowfully rejected
Passion once shared
Now turned to hatred

Dark clouds overshadow
The light of the sun
There is a chill in the air
The warmth has all gone

No escape from the dark
Only pain not blood
Runs through my veins
No passion left
To lead my soul astray

For how much longer
Will i think of you
Will my thoughts ever wander
To someone new
How long again
Before i am smiling
How my heart aches
I'm slowly dying
The glow of the candle
Is no longer bright
Flame slowly distinguished
There is no more light

An eclipse of the moon
Covers the sun
Now scarcely a shadow
No longer " The One "

Still waters run deeply
Submerging all tears
Whilst fathomless undercurrents
Of pain and despair
Reflect only slightly
The anguish within

Turbulent waves
Illuminate the way
Unyielding and steadfast
Pushing us ahead
Heartache can't beat me
It's all in the head

To sink or swim
Stay melancholy
Or be single minded
And resolute

Lightening may strike
Out of the blue
Once struck however
I'm ready for you

I've been shunned once
Never twice
Hit and run
Head on collision
No second chance
Will ever be given








Saturating pain
































Unrequited love










All that i






gave
Was never enough
