How dare you think that every piece I write is about you?

It’s been about four years
Why do you still think
I want you
Once I loved your touch
That was four years ago
Not now
How dare you think
That every piece I write
Is about you
So full of yourself
Are you happy now
That you are on my mind
Once I thought
I couldn’t live without you
I’m alive without you now
How dare you think
You can manipulate
And twist the truth
So full of yourself
I can see that smug face
Knowing this is about you

This one is about her, no doubt about it.

Beautifully expressed, your feelings clearly come through and not without a touch of irony. This is nicely done.

Thanks for your comments everyone.

I can relate to this. I’ve been there. When we love someone, it is very difficult to stop loving them, even though they haven’t shown any interest for some time, but we can be on fire with anger. Your words in the middle of your poem “Are you happy now
That you are on my mind,” may indicate the real, but suppessed feelings of love.
Great poem.

Very emotional and painful. I like your writing because it seems like it comes from some dark place similar to mine. Forgive me if I wrong.

I liked your piece as well as I liked your intro about yourself,Open. People could share so much if it was all up front good or bad . We never really do get over a split, for it is true everything we do is because of the split,just noone is keepinng score.
S A JOHNSON on Feb 5, 2009
Thank you very much for your comments.

Paul I think you are right. This relationship had a big impact on my life but at the same time I have moved on so I was just getting frustration out because he constantly thinks that I think about him.
