The Unknown Capabilities
by Jen
(New York, NY)
I’m sorry I let you back into my life,
I didn’t have time to heal.
And now it all feels like a fantasy,
Everything we went through wasn’t real.
Do you remember the times I was there for you,
Putting your needs before mine?
Now my head is just filled with empty memories,
Wasted, once sublime.
I wanted to show you what love was,
And our abilities to truly care,
But now that you’re with her,
I feel nothing but despair.
"She" who is in no way right for you,
But now I see that neither am I.
I gave so much, and got so little in return,
Except a heartache and a lie.
A lie that has truly devastated my spirit,
So far, unable to recover.
The despicable way you’ve treated
Not just a friend, but a lover.
I keep telling myself I’m better off,
Stronger then before,
But how can I forgive and forget,
Someone who’s broken my core.
I hope you'll realize, someday
The error in your ways,
Your face brings up negativity,
Feelings of anger and dismay.
I hope you receive your karma,
Eventually down the road
All the pain you have given to me,
I pray you are bestowed.
