Moving On Poem

A woman struggles with feelings she still has for her man after she has already broken up with him.

I Love You

© Karissa L. Bailey
The intentions are real
But the truth is untold
Patiently awaiting the lies to unfold
Her heart shatters with the thought of his touch
How could she let him control her this much
She holds on to a memory of how it used to be
Tempted by hatred, will she always grieve
For that man, just a child inside
He'll always have a pull on her soul
And a place to reside
She says that it is over
That is really it this time
Her life is torn apart and
Her heart is in a bind
Patiently waiting for those feelings to fade away
It makes it harder when he crosses her mind everyday
His sarcasm breaks the silence
Her heart follows it to the floor
Her body feels overwhelmed
When he walks through the door
She shouldn't still feel this way
She shouldn't still care
After all those times she needed him
Why wasn't he ever there
But she is the one who called it off,
The relationship made of glass
As fragile as a porcelain doll,
Was it really meant to last?!
