About the Poem

This poem was written to a guy who took something special away from me - my virginity. After that, we never talked again. At the time, he had a girlfriend, but I thought I'd win him over. Little did I know, he only wanted one thing.

Never Asked

I never asked you to call me,
Never asked to go with you that day.
That one night was perfect. We were one, but I
knew I'd be the one to pay.
I never asked you to make me feel good,
Never asked you to look my way.
It takes two to do what happened that night, so
there's nothing more you can say.
I never asked for you to care,
Never asked to be the only one.
I knew she was in your life too,
But still I thought I'd won.
I never asked for promises,
Never asked if I could put my trust in you.
I always though I could handle the things
you "so often" like to do.
I never asked you to turn away,
Never asked you to make me cry.
You go on with your life like nothing ever
Happened while I slowly start to die.
I never asked for this loneliness,
Never asked to be the one to blame.
You tried putting all the guilt on me while you
Were the one playing the mind game.
I never asked for this empty feeling,
Never asked you to be there.
While I sit here confused in my own little world,
All you can do is stare.
I never asked if you loved me,
Never asked you to take something special away.
I can't think straight and my heart aches, all
Because of that day.
I never asked for an explanation,
Never asked to be on your mind that day.
Even though I never asked you anything,
I'm broken hearted either way.

i really liked this poem because when i was just 15 years old the same thing happened to me and i was left so confussed and two year have past and im still not over him and he lives by me so i see him most days but yet we dont talk he is all so my older brothers best mate so he is often at my house and every time he comes over i get butterflys and have to hide away in my room and this is the only poem i have found that means alot after looking for one for two years

I absoultely loved your poem! I kinda relate to it in a way, but I wasn't a virgin. I had already lost my virginty to a guy I had been with for 2 years, but after we broke up I started going out more and meeting people and hanging out with my brother and his friends. I started getting close to a friend of my brothers and me and him ended up having sex and he had a girlfriend at the time also. now everytime I see him I have strong feelings against him. It hurts me knowing that I actually thought he cared about me. But trust me eventually when you find the love of your life,your life will be better.

I liked this poem. It reminds me of a situation I was almost in. Im still a virgin though. But it was close one night. But this guy is a player and he would never be with just me. But I have never felt this way for a guy ever. I have wanted to be with him from the momment I met him. What is wrong with me? I wish there was an off switch. I dont want to lose my virginity to someone that dont care about me the way I do him.

THIS Poem captures my Daughter's same experience. only he was her Fiance. She waited on him to come home from the Navy, she didn't see the end coming. And then it did, just like this. You never know the pain until you hold your daughter in your arms all night as she cries. AND you know in your Mother's Heart, SHE will never be the same.
