Unrequited

So sick of sitting here pretending

Only princesses get their happy endings

Friend zoned, forgotten, stepped on, abused

Really sick of feeling used

And to think I waited for you

Look at me now, I had everything to lose

I told you anyways, I opened up

And you laughed in my face, never felt so fucked up

Where did I go wrong I lost a friend

Somewhere along in the bitterness

I couldn't have you in that way

So I decided I couldn't stay

And now I'm nothing, you hate me so

How was I supposed to know

I lashed out, didn't know what to do

Never loved anyone like I loved you

You were my best friend, my only confidant

I'd been wanting to tell you for so long and I tried it

Drive until you lose the road

Or break the ones you've followed

Author's Note

borrowed lyrics from "How to save a life" by the Fray

every person who reviews this piece will be given two in return. figured that was the best way to do it as how I often forget to return reviews and then often give reviews and never hear from that writer again

Is a god angry poem from a jilted lover. Good job Annabelle

[The Rock And Roll Cowbo..]

Two borrow words from The J. Giles Band "Love stinks"... it can be a grand thing but when it is not returned it complicates life times ten.

Life is hard. Poetry makes it easier.

Thanks, Elliot

Oh Annabelle, you are such a talented girl. This is a very eloquent piece. The good news: you are already a splendid poet; the bad news: you will find oh so much more to write about. Chin up, darling.
