Someday

Out of boredom

 

Sometimes I think that

I shouldn’t have said that to you,

Knowing that you were trying to only be there for me

Whenever I was going through a hard time.  

I

Often wonder how I could have stopped

The problem before it began, the thought of it driving

Me absolutely crazy whenever the thought

Came to me like it every day of my life.

Even now that it’s over, I think about the

Day that you said you were leaving me,

Telling me that I yelled at you too much

And said that I hated you for trying to help,

Even if I never meant the words I said in anger.
And now that

You’ve left my world for good,

I sit in my room and ponder over the

Ups and downs that we’ve had with
The music pounding at my head.

The words repeat itself to me as

I sit and wonder about you all over again:

‘It's not like you didn't know that
I said I love you and I swear I still do
And it must have been so bad
Cause living with me must have damn near killed you
And this is how you remind me of what I really am
This is how you remind me of what I really am….’

Author's Note

Someday is one of my favorite songs by Nickelback! :D And I'm sorry if it looks kind of choppy in a way? And this poem could be about a girl thinking about the break up she had with her boyfriend.....that's what I'm seeing it as,anyways.

Songs 'used' (both by Nickelback):
-Someday
-How You Remind Me

Those are some of my favorite songs! I like the poem itself and the choppyness of it add to the effect... never doubt your work or others will doubt it too.. wonderful job!

I love those songs too!
I like the acrostic feeling without the acrostic formation.
Thank you for sharing.
Love All, Mejasha

I will try and focus my review on your poem rather than your taste in music :p

What I liked about this poem the most was the internal monologue you captured. We always dwell on words that have passed between loved ones in the heat of an argument or frustration; things we could have said or done differently. I think you captured that very well. Sometimes I wish we could just have a switch to turn such thoughts off.

Good work.
