Too Blind To See

Just a poem about a girl who is too blinded to see her boyfriend how he really is.

You always thought you could cheer me up

But you were always wrong

You always apologized for what you did

But you always dragged it on for way too long

You never made me happy

I thought that was easy to see

As you sit there and talk so casually as if you really know me

You can pretend like nothing is wrong

But we both know how that method fails

You always reminded me how I made you cry

Collapsed your heart, and made it frail

You try to blow me off

Thinking that would help you forget about me

But you always come running back

Like the shore and the majestic sea

You think you’re strong

You think you’re wise

But you can’t back that up, when I see those tears in your eyes

This is your fault

Maybe you should at least pretend to care

Instead of fixing your makeup, and fixing your hair

Stop trying to make me jealous

You should know by now that it doesn’t work

As I sit here and laugh at how pathetic you are

Wearing nothing but a smirk

All I’m saying is that you should leave me alone

Let me be

Because in the end

We all knew that you were too blind to see.

Not my greatest, but it kind of all just came to me in a blur, and my typing could not keep up. :)

This is amazing. I loved it, and it does sound like it could be a song.

[Jamie White]

I liked it a lot, too (: Good Job.

Actually, I thought this was pretty good.
I saw it as a song more than a poem.
Considering the author is very young, I would like to show appreciation for good grammar. Nice.
Seriously though, Too Blind to See is good stuff for a SONG man.....
you kids....

Wow that reminds me of one of my old best friends who was like MADLY in love with this girl who was in a s****y relationship, too. The girl never really realizes what a strain it puts on the guy "friend" when she continually runs to him with her problems for a quick pick-up.

Great job at expressing that! I will admit, though, that it's a bit confusing the way its written. I had to read it a couple of times to kinda follow along--but I don't know why? It was hard to figure out who's POV it was until the very end. But I still loved it, though, and once I caught on it was great!!! :)
