No More Tears

I found myself starting to cry again last night,

Wondering what I could have done differently so you could love me right. 

But for the first time in a while, the tears wouldn’t fall,

And I realized that I can not blame myself for what happened between us, not at all.

I have finally realized that you have issues that you need to fix,

And the only thing that I can blame myself for is falling for your tricks.

You have this void within yourself that is not worth my time,

And it is not my issue to fix someone who pretends like they are fine.

And that all of your problems will always be the fault of everyone but you,

And that you can do no wrong, and you and I both know that that is not true.

Because I gave you too much credit before I knew who you really were,

And I gave you too much credit, and I never really knew what I was fighting for.

Because I finally realized that you never cared whether I was going to live or die,

And you telling me we were friends was all just a lie.

I finally realized that I was not the one who made the mistakes,

Because there is only so much that a good person can take.

Because even the best people will get tired of always putting others first,

Especially when it comes to people like you, because you are the absolute worst.

I don’t want to judge too harshly, because I don’t know what you have been through,

But I have been through some shit too, and those are still things that I would never do.

People like you are scared of love because you are broken inside,

And eventually the truth will come out, and you will no longer be able to hide.

Because I know that I am not the only girl that you have done this to,

But that is no excuse, because we all have things that we have been through.

And you pushed away someone who loved you like no other,

But that light is gone, and I have been able to put that fire out with a smother.

Because you are not worth my effort or my time,

And because of you, I am doing just fine.

I loved your poem, but I thought that this quote specifically was really really good. I though it was great because it was relatable and took something youe went through and made it something that everyone can go through, I loved that you said something that I feel is constantly hidden behind a door, the idea of not wanting to judge someones actions to harshly even when they are the absolute worst. I love that. And I love that you said it.
