Set Me Free

I think this is the part where I hate you

Hate

Goddamn that's a foreign word 

At least, in association with you.

You, my best friend, my partner in crime

The one who put the soul, in soulmate

And the end in friendship...

You, the one I trusted with me wholly

Giving myself to you in every way I had left to give

But it seems I didn't give you enough.

Your piss poor excuses as to why its over 

Leave a bad aftertaste in my mouth and 

Are quite insulting to my overall intelligence and 

To our five year long friendship but

You forget I can read your mind.

You forget that I know what you didn't say

What you meant to say

What you should have f*****g manned up to say

But...

Theres nothing left between us.

Nothing left clinging to, I guess.

How unfortunate.

yes how very dare him! I like it how you don't cling to feelings you just shut him out. Others should do that lol

[Robert Strzalko]

Very honest and well written. Love is a tough one, or what we thought and hoped was love.

[Nessie_AJ]

I like how this is possesses a raw feeling as if it were a journal entry and the betrayal is so palpable! Keep it up!

[Edward Martin]

Okay. I can relate. Check my work if you want to, maybe you'll feel like I did when I read this.

[Rob Santana]

Ugh, feeling betrayed is horrible. But with time you can kick it to the curb.

[Brandon]

Ouch :( when we are told that our words are beautiful, let not the pain that gives birth to those words go unrealized.

[♥ Courtney ♥]

There was far too much pain that went into this. But alas, it lives here in this poem, no longer in me.

[Blank]

This is very intelligent, it reads smoothly with lots of emotion written in. I love the line breaks you use, and how hoest, simple, and straight forward your words are. Wonderfully written.

[♥ Courtney ♥]

Thank you very much!!

Hello I'm new around this website, I'm looking for other writers and such. I like this poem, love the lines: your poor excuses as to why its over / leave a bad aftertaste in my mouth. The aftertaste line, it's a good image, good use of the five senses because we've all had that bad aftertaste after eating something like medicine.

[Rocans]

[WideEyedAbyss]
