Love Poem: Over It

Over It

I give up 
I'm done with trying
I'm done with pain
I'm done with crying

Those lips of yours, I used to kiss
And there's no doubt that I will miss
The time we spent together

It's not worth it anymore
I feel degraded like a w****
But I tolerated it for you

"The things we do for love," they say
But you didn't do s*** anyway
I tried my hardest to get you to stay
But now it doesn't matter

If you talk to me, I'll listen
And though my eyes may glisten,
I know that there's no chance.

I depend on people way too much, 
Attatchment is my only crutch
So when I'm alone and the fear sinks in
I fall too far and I cave in

I tried to get you out of my head 
Outside I smile, but inside I'm dead
Because when I see you I'm filled with dread
Now I must try to be like stone

Too many tears I've shed for you
I try to forget but emotion breaks through
And I will never, ever forget about you
No matter how hard I try.

Just remember that this is your loss 
Because I'm not your b****, you're not my boss
I will not let you push me around
I can get back up off of the ground

And remember nobody else is like me
No one cared for you more, I hope you see 
But now I must grow away from you and be free
You lost a good thing

Now I see that you didn't care
You just talked out your a** and into the air
Secrets and lies are all your lips hold,
And after a while it really gets old

Now I hope someday you grow a pair,
or find a slut that just doesn't care
Either way I'll smile and say,
"I'm sorry you wasted this love"
For now, I'll suffer in silence
