Throw in the towel

I'll leave the light on

I'll keep the bed warm

For the final time tonight

You wont be returning

The scent of your perfume

Has faded like the daylight

 

I know it seems a little unfair,

It isnt like you ever cared

 

I'm sorry it ended

There's no use pretending

That we're gonna be okay

We were growing apart

I grew more broken hearted

With every passing day

 

My heart had always been for you

I wish your heart had been mine too

 

I left the light on

i kept the bed warm

For the final time tonight

Just wanted you to know i tried...

I know this feeling too well.
Waiting for someone that just doesnt want you anymore....
Eventually you've got to face it and let it fall away.


Ha, and as a side note; the song I'm listening to goes perfect with this poem.


Great piece.

Peace & Light

So sad.. But so well written. You paint a picture in my mind with your words. Great job.

Sad, but I liked it.

Awww

That last line gave me the image of a sad guy sitting on the side of a bed staring out a window. Funny how when we spend enough time with a person we know their scent. Sad when we like it and it fades.
Angst angst angst in all it inspires.

Just one thing. In the third stanza in the third line make the 'were' into 'we're'. It's just a small thing but I'm a bit obsessive over wrong word usage haha, like 'their' and 'there'. I just freak out xD

Welcome :)
