Not You

Not You

A Poem by gladys aily
"

It's a sonnet about someone who broke your heart and is trying to come back. Yet, he is someone who is not meant for you because you're already in love with someone else.

"
I loved you but I was terribly hurt;
Trying to believe that it's not too late.
Was always missing you for we're apart,
Till I realized I felt so much hate.
Here in my heart, you have 
caused so much pain.
I cried non-stop and didn't want to live;
Hid each drop of my tears under the rain.
You talked to me but I didn't believe. 
Will never deny that I have loved you;
And now I think that everything is fake.
Thought you would prove that your love is true,
Yet you gave me nothing but plain heartache.
I know that I have already moved on.
And will give my heart to someone else soon.

Hi Gladys,
Thought I would review one of your delightful poems.
So, trying a sonnet.. good for you.
10 syllables per line... right... so the line
"Thought that you would prove that your love is true" seems to only have 9 syllables.. please correct me if I am wrong...
Also, line 5 and 6 should be on one line..
and, you might want to think about separating line 4 from line 5 and 8 from line 9, so that there are actual verses..4 lines per verse and just two lines at the end...I counted you lines and I think you have one extra..
Just thought I would share a tiny bit of what I know...and I am certainly no expert.. but I so like your poem that I thought just a tiny bit of tweaking would make it stronger.
Probably none of my business...

Yes! This captures heartache and that initial pain we feel wonderfully. I've been through this last year. A poetry topic everyone should read!
