You were beautiful

sometimes things go this way

You were
beautiful
and brash
and bold
and I loved
you with
all I had
I looked at
you that
day and
told you
you could never
chase me away
I am sorry
I was wrong.

double heart break what can you do?

Reviews

[Kai Rollins]

Heart break makes for good writing at the very least. It's good to find what's in those fractures.
Or maybe "I was wrong"?

[Lyn Anderson]

Well, there isn't much to do but analyze the aftermath.

[Muse]

I've known a soul such as this. I don't have words to fathom how that feels. Sometimes feelings are best left in a metaphor. I loved this poem for all the wrong reasons I'm afraid.

[Lyn Anderson]

Too bad for you. It still isn't easy.

[Emily Ring]

This is beautiful. Sometimes things go this way. Sometimes there is such beauty in heartbreak.

Amazing how we can go so off track, that love/hate thing sure does smart. Ouch, that double whammy, I hear there's life after heartbreak, hang in there my friend.

[David Scott]

Ouch! I reality, only we can choose to leave. Yet far too often, it is the only thing left to do to find sanity and hope. Even if we break our own heart in the process. Still, I feel it is important to claim the power of our choices. Even when others seem to make the decisions rather plain for us.
I know the point of the write was how feelings change, but I just felt this thought about empowerment also...

can't do much...it drains the emotion and we have to build up the reserve once more.

glad to see you still posting poems as KL..wouldn't have wanted to see you leave.

Now I know a little bit why you write love poems this way. It spilled from the cracks of a brokenheart. There is a song by James Blunt with this title " You're Beautiful " ...or Beautiful

[A. Amos]

Well double heart break... they say third time you're always lucky...................................................
as always enjoyed reading your poetry

[Sami Khalil]

Sorry does not bring love back or revive a dead one or cause the rain to come back I guess...Excellent
