I have the need to scream and shout,
In a room that's full of strangers,
You stole my heart and ripped it out,
Exposed me to your dangers.
I loved you every single day,
I showed it always too,
I guess I should have always known,
There was no perfect you.
I've removed my rose-coloured spectacles,
Been blinded by your light,
Now alone with thoughts in darkness,
A future out of sight.
Life has kicked me in the arse,
It's happened once again,
Do I have the strength to bounce right back?
After all your wicked pain.
Now wading through thick water,
I'm right back at the start,
Running but getting nowhere,
You've hacked my love apart.
But no I won't be bitter,
And I won't push and shove,
You've been an inspiration,
And I wish you only love.

Oh....... I did wonder when you said you wanted to move.
Have I got it wrong? I hope so.
Life is tough, isn't it?
You are a survivor. You will get through it.
Good things some times happen out of bad and your poem certainly is one of the good things. You can share...... that is another good thing and you have your blogging friends that might not be able to provide the comfort you need right now, but we are here for you all the same and that is another good thing.
Take courage, my friend.
What a sensible attitude; love and let go is so much better than hang on and hate, and this goes for feelings/people/everything. Good that you can produce a poem from it all, too. Creativity is such a blessing! x
Hi just been catching up with your last few blogs and it seems there are some changes coming all around. I wish you well with your plans - lovely words and sentiment in the song :)
Hi Maggie,
Thank you very much dear friend,
unfortunately yes my 13 year relationship has come to an end.... not my decision but I'm accepting it now, I just want to be happy and I know I will be and I know I deserve to be, but sometimes I just get so tired of life kicking me in the arse.
At the moment I am afraid as I have a whole unknown future ahead of me and I have to start all over again, but I know I'm strong and that things will work out.
Thank you for your lovely words! Your support is really appreciated and with my blogging friends I don't feel so alone.
Big Hugs!

Hi softinthehead,
Thank you very much!
Yes, unavoidable changes, but my strength has already started to kick in and it's at times like these that I surprise myself really.

Hi ciara,
Thank you so much dear friend! I wasn't planning on moving alone originally, but now that seems the case within the next 1 or 2 months...
Sometimes I get scared but other times I feel very brave, but I'm not afraid of change. I'm just a whole mess of emotions at the moment :(
Big Hug! XX

I owe you a response to your email, and I will get to it later this afternoon, I promise!
Beautiful poem, my friend. He doesn't deserve you. I think it won't be long before he realizes what a huge mistake he made...
Love, D
Hi Irmão!
Great poetry!
You can see the emotion in every word.
Go on and make a new start and make it shine because you're a star!

Hi Leo!
Thank you so much for the wonderful words Irmão!
Abração! :)
Sigh. So much emotion- yet still so beautiful.
Heartbreak is tough...but you are tougher, Donnie. You have a strong support system: all of us. We are here for you...always. Many hugs to you, my friend. His loss.

Hi E,
Thank you so much! X
Hi Carol,
Thank you so much for your lovely words! I appreciate it so much! X
You are a wonderful modern day poet. 13 years is how long my first marriage lasted and so I understand what you're going through.
Hi Sarah,
Thank you!
Yes, it's hard eh?! It's not like it was a relationship that lasted just a couple of years, it's been a marriage and now a divorce.
I hope I can come out of it o.k. and get my life sorted out soon!
Big Hugs,
Donnie XX
