Retrospect

By Miztaken4beauty

I refuse
[to be]
The girl you used.
(she)    Is dying.    (See?)
One day you'll look.
And you'll know.
I was too good.
and you let me go.
But...
I'm struggling.
Trying to move on.
Punishing other people,
because you're already gone.
(WHY?)
Am I so weird, so warped,
so wrong?
(WHY?)
Am I so wilted, so weak?
I want to be strong.
But I'm not strong.
I can't even climb the walls,
you so carelessly erected.
That night you destroyed something,
you had always protected.

    Hi Mistaken4Beauty, I can relate to your words a heart is given to someone only to be tormented to be thrown aside, the pain we feel and anger inside, you'll move forward in time and begin again, to give your heart to one that feels the same. it's a true depiction of some one who wants to love and be loved. beautiful write.
