This was written in anger, but it is full of raw teenage emotion. Anyone who has been cheated on before and reads this will instantly feel better.

Spare a moment of your time
Bastard of my spirited youth
Space will wait alone
As you confess to me the truth
Is your desire taking over
Befriended with your lies
Damned if you’re not hardened
To deny my heartfelt cries
Two years you were loved
All that I could see
But still you chose to run away
Ignored my final plea
So don’t try to show now
And take control of me
Undone with my surroundings
Another’s love has set me free
And finally you’re rewarded
Your dreamgirl at hand
So tell me, Chuck
Does she meet your demands
Every night and day
You will lay with her
Does she know of the one you left behind
For the one whom you prefer
Does she know of all the love
You took away from them
Have you told her that your future
Will always be this dim
If she knew that you still call me
And all that you still say
Would she go to you tonight
Do you think she would stay
If the threat she thought she was
Turned out to be me
Would she go down on you still
Do you think she’d agree
Good night to you, honey
My sweet little Chuck
Because frankly my dear
I don’t give a ****

I wonder who that was referring to?

not that you need my sympathy…but I am very sorry that this…”Chuck”…has dealt such a terrifying blow…it is a card that should never be pulled from the sleeve…but your raw emotion does not make me feel better…I am glad it helps you to get it out though…it is a witty poem…the last line really got me…what word were you trying to imply…

Well, I can relate to this one. And it did make me feel better. Sometimes… no, I won’t say it. Been there, done that.

Very intense.

Even though I do like your poetry, I am not in favor of all the bad language in this one. I know that when people get mad they say some really bad things. Heck! So do I. But, I wouldn’t want those things to follow me around for the rest of my life reminding me of how mad I actually was. I really do hope that you got over this guy so that you can go on to write the beautiful poems that I know you are capable of writing. He was just a pebble in the road on the way to your destiny.

Josey,
I love your straight forwardness. That last line was a real gut buster. I about fell out of my chair laughing. For all of you that don’t know the last word on the last sentence; first think of what rhymes with Chuck. And I don’t mean duck, even though it does. I’ll definitely be reading more of your work! This is really pretty fantastic. Keep up the good work!

Strong emotional write that conveys so really deep thoughts. I sure do understand and yes, it does make me feel better. For both you and me since that is in our past! You stated so much for many in this poetry.
