i will never forget,but i dont want to because of how it felt joy is worth pain or am i lieing to myself?
had i of known,would i of but we dont choose who to fall in love with but god you choice of all prince charmings to send me one WHY one that was sick?
lies stories maddness often i put my life at risk my well being never matterd his, always did.
faithfullness he gave to me he in love with me as i him and though i am not a failure sorry lord, i could never win.
my hurt? always excused its not his fault hes mental and god you know, his sane days are the days i wished could stand still.
i know he needs me more then i do him dispite he makes it feel the other way round yet i darent leave him in fear for him how will he react if i let him down.
but even i have a line love does not cross to tell me to kill myself, he doesnt see he doesnt have to suggest such a thing when his words have finally, already killed me.
i dont know god what you were playing at but im tired of you testing me as you do maybe you think i dont deserve anyone better but my thoughts are, that i do.
some day i am going to die prepare yourself lord for when that day comes cause iv more then a bone or two to pick with you for why you choose me to be the blasted cursed one.

About this poem:
not everyone can be saved, even them that you might love and sometimes we have to know that in order to save yourself.
So is the truth not ever stained, or bent, or rearranged to fit one's exectation...it just simply is...the truth. Too often I agree in our relationships with others we allow ourselves to get pushed and pulled around so much it hurts us more than we can ever realize. I guess everyone is unique and somewhat demanding at times, but there's a limit where we must define where our boudaries lie and not let anyone disrespect where those lines are drawn in the sand, least of all someone who truly loves us for our entire person. I really think you've captured everything I can relate back to you about this great write. Very well said.

thank you yankie but if you can relate to what im feeling, then that doesnt say alot about you .. im not thought much of because of my writes, but you can improve yourself by leaving comments on other ones writes.. just not mine

OUCH!!!! I know that pain!!! It took me years before I was ready again. And I too have many bines to picks and questions that to me defy answers.
Hi, itchywitch, but we dont choose who to fall in love with has its truth; but, as the poet writes, even i have a line love does not cross. This focus on love and protection of self is needed so the love for the other does not turn first into fear and then hate. Such a powerful write full of raw emotion and understandable questioning. Thank you for sharing.

I know those feelings itchy...once I wrote a blog and this woman made fun of me and laughed out loud...she even wrote to my email to keep her attack on me...I was just expressing myself...for her it was just a joke...I like what you wrote,it says a lot.

ITCHY Such a very deep emotional write... well written. I feel we all have to walk in the other persons shoes to actually really understand the rights and wrongs of the fragility and emotions involved in relationships -in your case.. your poem strongly suggested emotions which seemed hopeless and a seemingly unworkable quagmire of pain and heart ache while you searched for 5 years for answers .. But I cant judge because im not in your shoes.. All the best for an especially peaceful new year 2012

thank you maxeen but i guess to be fair we sometimes have to judge, mustnt we do that to form an opinion??? but to assume you KNOW when you dont and then tell everyone their findings of you, then thats wrong but thats some people for you but what to do, its not an ideal world were living in but such is life eh

Yes!Itchywe do tend to judge quite often..And often our judgement can be on the button ..But sometimes its also way off the mark.too!. Im quite a non judgemental person especially when all facts are not known to me.. Thats why I personally say I would need to be walking in the others shoes-then I could be the judge and the jury. Have a peaceful new year Dear poet friend Blessings sent.

Ms Itchy - this is the kind of wrought poem that I can understand, and I am sure that it speaks for many. Why do we have to go through such things? - who knows? though it seems all too common today. Perhaps we all want too much, and then when you put two people together (who want too much) all hell breaks loose especially if these people are on some levels incompatible and both want different things. This I feel is the gist of the problem. I am sure however that you did not deserve this - regards lcbr

Very honest and very sad !! I understand your situation if this is true. Love should not feel like you are being ripped apart or take you to a dark place. Dealing with the rage is not something you should of endured. If there was a process to find peace then yes. I would continue here but do not wish to preach. Sad!!

Itchy.. You may have gotten the wrong impression dear. I meant I like the honest raw emotions I felt coming from your story..my fault I didn't elaborate more on that. You have a unique way of expressing yourself and your blog stories are incredibly entertaining. I wasen't looking at how it was written. I could care less about that because I'm no expert to be judging people in that area. Cafe
