Mr. Africa Poetry Lounge!

We did This


This day never crossed my mind
but its here,
But ur not,
That's the point.....
We never made it,
We never caught it,
We never did it,
We never suffered through,
We werent strong.....
Love brought us far, then left us...
left me....
U left me....
it Hurts, It burns,
Like a physical beatdown,
but this is a mental breakdown...
a mental meltdown....
My head full of distraught thoughts,
cant think of the goodtimes,
ur words jus replay in my head....
im sorry,
My words jus replay in my head....
u did this....
we did this....
u walked away....
i didnt follow u...
as our relationship died,
i cried,
and cried,
and cried,
now i sigh...
As i see you.....
As u see me....
As we see each other,
and not a word is spoken...
nothing even muttered...
pure silence...
silence that could kill...
that could torture....
that coud divide,
and it does.
Cant ask for more...
cant ask for less...
it wasnt there, and we left it alone...
u not as scarred as me,
but scarred nonetheless.....
true love would have sustained...
it would have remained...
guess we werent tamed....
not enough either way....
we both were betrayed...
and i hate to think of that day...
but it stays on my brain,
like detergent on a stain,
or mildew after rain...
that day brought me so much pain...
pain,
pain,
and more pain.....
Apologies didnt happen,
they wont happen,
they cant happen....
We did this!!
