    Fuck! I can’t believe how much I risked loving you
    I risked everything for you
    Lost my trust
    My heart, my validity
    My smile and my mind
    Over what?
    A stupid kiss…

    That bitch stole it from you
    That bitch wasn’t me though was it?

    She’s just like me though
    She loved you, just like me
    You hate her, just like you hate me
    She might as well be me
    But she just wasn’t was she
    You couldn’t love her like you loved me
    And that made you angry

    After I said those things
    You ran from me
    And I couldn’t catch you
    I didn’t want to
    I knew things would never be the same
    You liar you heart breaker
    I’ll break your neck

    What you don’t have one?
    OH, you spineless jelly fish
    I told you not to trust me
    So what do you do… obeyed me!

    You’re the dumbest bitch I know
    But I wouldn’t ever tell you that
    I love you too much
    I’ll hurt you though
    I’ll break your ever loving heart again and again and again
    And it’ll sting
    Like a bee…..
    Wait you’re allergic to bees
    Good!!!!!!!!!
    Die bitch

    Wait I didn’t want to
    I didn’t mean to I didn’t…wait
    You think I did
    No, no, no
    That was just an act to make you think I didn’t care
    What? It worked? I-I-I don’t know what to do!

    I can’t cry any more
    Basically I refuse to slit my wrists
    Don’t even go there
    Please don’t go there with me
    Well ok so please DO go there with me
    I’ll go any where with you

    I’ll go to hell for you if it means you’ll be happy
    What you are happy,
    Ha…ha…ha! DON’T lie to me any more

    But hey, what is that…
    Floating in that pool over there?
    Don’t go over there…you don’t know what you’d find
    I know what you’d find

    In that pool over there they’ll find my body
    In that body they’ll find my blood
    In that blood they’ll see your poison
    In that poison they’ll see your hate
    In that hate they’ll see your lies
    In those lies they’ll see your pain
    In that pain they’ll see your truth
    In the truth they’ll see your love

    After all that cover up you can’t even look at me
    Because we both know
    We don’t even know each other
    The fake you learned to love the real me
    The real me learned to love the fake you
    And when the real you came out…
    Your walls went up
    When your walls went up
    I got hurt
    When I got hurt
    I got defensive
    When I got defensive
    I got in trouble
    And when I got in trouble
    I needed you most
    When I needed you most
    You were no where to be found
    And when I couldn’t find you
    I went looking
    I got lost
    I got scared
    I got weak
    I got nowhere
    I got…
    I have…
    I gained…
    Nothing
    I lost….EVERYTHING

    You gave me so much then stole it all
    You couldn’t even help me when I needed it
    The only thing I was or am to you
    Is your pain

    Without me you couldn’t feel a thing
    Could you… I know I could

    I could feel it in my happiness
    The hunch just wouldn’t go away
    And I knew something…
    A secret I couldn’t bare to tell you
    The secret was…that I knew from the start
    That the end would be painful
    I knew it, I knew it all along
    I knew that there would be an end
    And it would take over our lives
    Our love
    Our minds souls and spirits!

    We would call it heartache…
    Or maybe we’d call it blame
    Back stabbing
    It didn’t matter what we called it
    Maybe we wouldn’t call it any thing
    It would hurt and burn, so badly
    We wouldn’t be able to mutter a sound in its name

    And it would be like a disease
    One where the pain never really left
    (Or dulled at all for that fact)
    At least not for a long time
    Not until the pain of a new disease distracted you from the old pain

    I can’t see it at all
    I don’t feel it at all
    I can barely hear it at all…
    And yet,
    What I CAN hear is the slow, weak, sickly murmur
    Of a heart
    Ya that heart
    MY HEART
    The one still beating in the bottom of the pool!

    If you listen really closely
    You can hear it try to scream
    Scream I LOVED YOU
    And in that scream I’ll finally see the truth
    The truth you feared all along
    Me…
    you were scared of me
    And I knew it
    Didn’t I?
    Fuck! I can’t believe how much I risked loving you
    I risked everything for you
    Lost my trust
    My heart, my validity
    My smile and my mind
    Over what?

    ranting is good, a way to release emotion. you are right though this isn't a poem. if you want to take it and make it a poem than find some imagery to blend into it and start cutting away at it until it's a tenth of the size. take anything out that is a repetition. as for what images to use... pick a theme and a sense (smell/touch/sound): garbage/stink? summer/heat? make a list of theme words for your chosen images/sensory type - then find ways to use those words to replace some of the common words you are using in this rant. that could be a start... it will take a lot of work to make this a poem but you might have something incredible if you try hard.
