This poem is about my ex- boyfriend that I loved with all of my heart. Then he dumped me and left me for another girl. And I still have feelings for him and I know that he hurt me but I just can't let go of the past and it is killing me inside. I can't seem to rid my memories of us.
Now that you're gone it seems I long for you day and night
As I reminisce of your kisses as you held me tight
I never dreamt that you would leave
I thought that you would be here to stay
I cried my self to sleep when I heard you say
" Can we just be friends? "
Your words tore me apart, as you stole my heart
You left me stranded, no where to go , no one to turn to
In that situation that selfish person would be you
It seems as if you didn't care, about me nor my feelings
as you left me in despair
I start to cry whenever I hear your name,
as your voice repeats in my head
"Can we just be friends?"
I ask myself every day, Was it because of me?
But how? I never loved some one with a love so deep
I sit here now alone and depressed
Wondering if you feel my loneliness
Just then I start to tremble because I know that the answer is no
You left me because you loved her so
Wishing things were as they were
Before I lost you, before her
But. since my love was so strong I strived and no matter what hung on
It's been a while, at least a month and a half
You could even call it the past
And still to this day I still hear you say
"Can we just be friends? "
Although it's hard, I now know that you weren't the one.
And it is time for me to move on
So when you crawl back and ask
"Can we be more than just friends? "
You'll see me sigh, them give my reply.
"Though I have awaited this day for so long,
what you did was just wrong.
All the pain that you put me through,
my conclusion is that the fault was on you.
You had your chance, I just don't feel the romance.
It was your loss and my gain, sorry to say,
but my feelings just aren't the same"
Just then I start to cry because I know that my words are lies,
deep down I know I desperately want him back
But I am not going to give in this time
I've learned from my pain that I am not going to get hurt again
Now I say to you, " Sorry, this is the end,
We are just friends"
So in words short and few, "We're through! "
No more longing for the past that I once endured
The only thing it brought me was suffering and hurt
Now I'll just wait to see what the future has in store
And not wait around for him anymore.

I really loved this poem! Out of all the poems that I have read this one really touched me. I experienced a similar situation except the guy didn't want to be more than friends at the end.

I really like this poem because I've been with my boyfriend for a year and a half and I know in my heart that I will feel the same way!
sandra
that is a lovely poem. it really touched me. my b/f dumped me 8 months ago and i was devistated and i didn't feel like i could carry on living, but every single night i was praying that he would come back to me and i was wishing aswell, i love him so much and he gave me a second chance and last month he came back to me and he told me that he loves me loads. you just have to keep on believing in yourself and even if you don't get him back then there will be plenty more people out there that want you. you have to keep living because once you stop believing in yourself then you start feeling really low and like i just wanted to kill myself but i believed that he would come back and he did. god bless you and hope that everything turns out right. keep writing those lovely poems because i believe that they express peoples feelings lots and lots of love x x x chelsie x x x ( age 16 ) it can still happen if your young

Hey girl that was amazing you know the thing that happend to you is happening to me right now and thats the way I feel right now but the hardest thing is that he keeps talking to me and he says that he still cares about me but he says that we could just be friends and thats killing me inside
sage
I know the fleeling all to well. He didn't leave me for another girl as far as I know we loved each other despite the distance between us but he had a rough life and we did not really get to speak much if you ask me because of his mom. There are times i wonder if he heard my thoughts because after i thought of a certain thing for a while he would end up bringing it up but I still would not mind going back out with him.
Andrea

I LOVED IT AND I CONNECTED WITH IT SO WELL! my boyfriend just broke up with me. and even though we only dated for a little over a month, i've been crazy about him for atleast 6 months. when i read this poem i started to cry because its exactly how i feel. especially the part where the girl says that the words she would say to him are lies coz she still wants him back. i felt like i was looking through a window to my own life. i just couldnt connect with the last paragraph coz i dont feel that way but the poem is beautiful and yo captured this feeling of loneliness and lost love so well! i give you three thumbs up!
