(A poem I wrote many years back after my ‘fairytale break up’.)
For i can no longer take inside
the feelings I’ve gained without you at my side
my heart no longer beats
and my body no longer feels
my head keeps turning over and over
the events that led us to these ordeals.
loosing you has numbed me
for i no longer feel
what do you expect from me?
I never stopped wanting, nor stopped loving
but the pain left me running
in the direction that you weren’t coming.
I ran and ran until i turnt to find
you wern’t following
and realised you were gone,
sat there crying thinking what had i done
i ran in the hope you’d follow
not to be left alone in sorrow.
so i ran back the other way
in the hope to find and say
you’re my everything and I’m sorry
but when i got back
I’d been gone too long and you’d
already moved on.
so i was left with my mistake in my hand
tears falling, for this was not what I’d planned.
