    Just enough
    to weaken my knees,
    Just enough
    to make me smile,
    You wanted me
    Just enough,
    To keep me there,
    Just enough,
    For just a while.

    You were never really
    mine to keep,
    You were never really
    mine to hold,
    My arms have fallen,
    to my sides,
    Your heart is frozen-
    Now mine is cold.

    Cold enough
    to make me blind,
    Cold enough
    to make me numb,
    I gave it all for-
    Just enough,
    Now-I've had enough,
    This time, I'm done.

    I really like it, it shows a very good lesson being learned, and the tone makes it sound frantic and full of despair... but then you accept it willingly, excelent. Heart breaks draw the picture... time colors them in

    Thanks everyone.

    "Heart breaks draw the pictures....time colors them in." That's nice, is it yours?

    Very good poem about jilted love gone wrong. I like your style. It's open and honest and true.

    sorry bout the short reply, I wrote it after a 14 hour over-nighter. It was part of a poem I wrote after my gf of 5 years and I split. And thank you for your comment on mine, it made my week

    someone talking to themself I think

    It's about a love relationship that was painful . It's about the pain involved in caring for someone and being jilted and misused.

    I love the rhyme. I don't know how to start praising it but.... I really liked it. I have to go off searching through the old pages for more of your stuff?
    Thanks,

    Peace,

    I like it, art like life is not always neat and pretty. Sometimes it raw and filled with pain.
