Lost

Lost

You thought me to be hateful 
My act of being faithful 
I cannot tell a lie 
Will you open up your eyes 

To the seeds that are your fury 
Cos you're selling off our glory 
We could have so much better 
This was meant to be forever 

Lost 
Lost in a moment that will cost 
Now this love is left to rot 
Gone and given all I got 

Your anger grew to rage
 As you built up your own cage
Creating your own pain 
Then you tell me am to blame 

Has this all been an illusion 
This love holds such confusion 
Am tired of trying to make you see 
You’ve become the death of me 

Lost 
Lost in a moment that will cost 
Now this love is left to rot 
Gone and given all I got 

So am writing you a letter 
Hoping one day you love better 
Let go the bitterness and greed 
Stop planting jealous lover seeds 

You need to know I did once love you
But am sorry now it’s not true
Too much pain from you was fed 
Now my love for you is dead 

Lost 
Lost in a moment that will cost 
Now this love is left to rot 
Gone and given all I got 

Gonna leave you now to wallow 
Know my heart inside feels hollow
Don’t you ever try to follow 
Me to my brighter day, tomorrow 

I gotta brighter day tomorrow

This line really leapt out! Love is a horrible place to be when the object of your love does not care x

You're very welcome. FWIW   I have known that feeling all too well, unfortunately. It is indeed very sad when  love turns everything on its head x

Max, thanks ever so much for popping into one of my older pieces. Yeah I needed to get those thoughts out of my head. So I could look at it and remind myself I can do better. Never settle for anything less than happy. Cos otherwise you will end up miserable. And you have loads of potential, so never let anyone make you doubt that 

XD my rambles is done lol sorry, I get passionate over people. Thanks for the support 💛😊

Oh, so enjoyed reading this one Gwen, love how you express inner strength and dogged determination and a honed focus for good measure.
No suffer fools gladly here today and superb to see and absorb a poetic adrenaline rush.
A sharpened write and pinned for a later reread pick me up.
Thanks Gwen and beautifully and equally powerfully written.❤️

Now aint that just the way it so often bloomin goes eh' .. but when one's back is firmly up against the wall .. one must make a swift decision .. either do summat about it or grin n bear it ................. doing something about it conjours up the image of strength, resolve and a kind of dynamism ... while grinning & baring it makes me think more of a victim and whilst that may be rather contentious .. I will have to re-visit later before passing final judgement since it is all to easy to pin the victim label on others and I so detest any form of labelling .......... verily much enjoyed regardless

Wow Neville I loved reading your comment here on this poem. I wrote this a while ago now. You know I found its the one cheating that gets paranoid. Funny eh.. yeah taking a stance and moving on gives you a boost of strength, eventually. Thanks my friend for your wisdom which is always most welcomed
