Innocence Stolen

when your ex wants you back, but you just can't

 

 

I realize the damage is

Irrevocable...

Heart in turmoil...

Blood coagulated

Memories

 

Disrupt tortured mind...

Let me go!

You burned our bed

With Indifference

Apologies become mute...

 

Buried

Innocence lost in satiated

Paradise

Never to be regained

I am truly Weary...

 

Shameful...

Ungrateful...

Thieves and Liars

Reek of disease

Yellow wraps its cloak

 

Around Regret

Unrelenting

Why weren't you there
When I needed you?

Why did I allow you...

 

To Spare me the Time?

WOW an excellent outlet of the emotion released unto the poem. Indeed I can feel the anger,hurt,and weariness very vividly as a painting within my mind. The scars can be felt on the soul ..and their strength
to express them outwardly.The process has manifested unto the written expression another form of healing

Amazing. I loved the words you chose. here's one of my favorite lines:

You burned our bed

With Indifference

each word in this poem, h ad meaning, tying to the next sentence, and it all worked well together. NO matter how much I read of your works, I always love it. You write a lot, and have a lot of pieces, it's exciting.

This is sad that a love can make you feel so bitter to
the very core, making one unreconizable. AD

The reflection of this writing must have been like opening old wounds, difficult under even the best of circumstances. There comes a point when we move on, and even though its heartbreaking we disconnect ourselves from the pain of the situation in order to survive it.

Excellent poem to express your feelings in the matter. Flowing and full of passion, anger, and sadness. Keep the faith, better days are on the horizon.

It sucks to see this write from you. When you've become friends with a person, and you've seen them be so....full of zest, you sometimes wish to believe that there was never a time when they knew hurt, you know? This is a great, deep piece about never being able to go back....about hurt, and ultimately about never forgetting.

I really, really sadly enjoyed this piece. And that's perfect.

Very harsh question but well deserved. A great expression of questioning. It is so easy to destroy trust, but extremely difficult to obtain it. Great work. And don't give him the satisfaction.

Sadness and despair wreak havoc throughout this piece. A perfectly crafted work of poetic art. This piece brought forth all sorts of emotions . . . and I like the gentle outpouring of grief and suffering that is portrayed. Not bitter, but very truthful and strong. Forthright.

Fantastic job, A!

i know these feelings quite well, my friend....i know about the hurt, the anger, the weariness and even the hatred that has a tendency to creep into this equation. this is a powerful write. you express your feelings quite well and maybe the healing will begin....the scars do go all the way to the very soul and sometimes no matter how you try, they never completely heal. i know all of this because i am still there and i understand that there is no way to go back....it would be the loss of more than the innocence...it would be the loss of one's self.

Always,

Amanda
