Dream Girl

And I wait....

By Natalie RileyPublished 7 years ago 1 min read

The depth of pain I felt was worse than razors to the wrist...

The love I thought to be so true gone like raindrops in the mist.

There are no words that can compare to the hurt you made me feel...

My insides felt as though ripped out my heart to never heal.

I fought to hold back all my tears in fear they might never cease...

To say I welcomed darkness is to state the very least.

My happiness now lay in shards, a once beautiful looking glass...

I struggle to see the future and I can't bare to think the past.

You gave me so much hope and joy then like a thief you stole it back

You wrote us off with unjust cause... your heart quickly turned so black

I prayed things would be different but this failure's ours to share

The thing I really miss the most; that feel like home when someone cares.

I've been hurt so bad and left for dead by those who swore to care

Some even called me Dream Girl claimed I was waited on for years.

They worked so hard to win my heart... now left with the stains of bitter tears.

After all the heartaches and all the lies how could I just ignore my fears?

You said I was amazing made me feel so truly rare

I know now they were only words well rehearsed throughout the years.

You made me feel so special as I clung to every word

To think that you were lying was just totally absurd.

My love for you will never die... the years go by and still I cry

You held my heart in your two hands then let it drop without a sound.

I have been writing poetry for approximately 8 years now that mostly pertains to my own feelings and experience with depression and life. I've decided to try sharing it with the world as I know others that struggle will "get it."
