I will not lose sleep

I've cried too much over you.
I've gone as crazy as I can.
I have done everything I can think of,
while in this depression because of you,
but I will not lose sleep over you.
I will cry for you,
I will go crazy for you,
but I will not lose sleep.
Not for you,
I have done to much for you already.
So I will have my sleep.
I will not dream of you,
I will not think of you,
I will forget you.
Just like you forgot me.

What inspired me to write this was that my boyfriend, who said that he loved me, cheated on me with my so called BFF (best friend forever). I was in love with him and I cried myself to sleep many nights. Some nights I went without sleep because I was so depressed. I couldn't talk to anyone, except God of course, and I didn't feel like I could go through it much longer.

God gave me a way to relieve the pain in me by giving me the ability to write poetry.I hope that this helped someone out there who is dealing with heartbreak. God is with you, no matter what and you can do it. If I can do it, I know you can. So no matter what happens in life, never think you can't do it. God will give you a way to relieve the pain, you just have to find it.
