    There was a reason I stopped seeing this boy, I know there is, but lately it doesn't matter. It's been forever since we've been together and this past week I can think of no one else. It's sad and weird and I'm beginning to get angry with myself for it.


    how many chances you've been given
    and still i'd offer you more
    you can have infinite opportunities
    to force me to a heap on the carpet
    to tear my clothes and i apart
    please, for old times, call me a slut
    tell me how sad and rotten i am
    i'll never tire of the happiness
    in the pain you often brought

    you're in my head, killing brain cells
    i can feel myself becoming stupid
    when your leaving only leaves me wanting
    in my bloodstream, slashing veins
    the desire, the needing, the pointless
    and empty desperation choking my heart
    you're in my soul, beating my spirit
    killing off all i have left of me
    with every new thought of you

    even now, apart for months
    i can feel you crush me still
    no opportunity for even a word to pass
    yet the beauty of your destruction
    and me here, big and bloated
    with another man's baby
    and you there, unaware, unaffected
    i punish myself for wondering
    if i'd rather it be yours

    An angery but well written poem. The images are very moving. I hope this helps you get over your ex.

    Peace and love

    It's not angry but sad and pathetic. It's just about accepting that he was an ass and wanting him back to do it again.
