Final Words : Love Poetry

written by Poet : Joseph


Tell me what it was that I did

That made you hate me so much.

For the longest time,

You were so cold to the touch

I guess I'm not the man

That you wanted me to be.

I know I wasn't there

When you needed me.

 

I remember all those times

When I held your hand

As we walked long the beach

And made love in the sand.

Day and night I'm tormented

By these memories.

Now I'm trying to forget

So I can put my mind at ease.

 

Now I spend all my time

In this tiny room,

Hoping that my pain

Will be over soon.

But I just can't believe

That it will ever end.

I just keeping seeing your face

In my mind again and again.

 

I know that I went crazy.

I think I'm crazy still.

I get my comfort

From a bottle of pills.

But they don't help

To ease my mind.

I just don't understand

Why can't I leave you behind?

 

I tell myself to hate you,

But no matter how hard I try

I just can't bring myself to

And I want to know why.

I guess I'll always love you

In some strange way

And I guess now is the time to tell you

All the things I could never say.

 

 

I can finally admit

What I knew all along.

Even though I blamed you

I'm the one who was wrong.

I want to tell you I'm sorry
I never did explain

Just how much I love you

And I never meant to cause you pain.

 

There were times when we were happy.

Times that were good.

And if I could live them again

I know that I would.

But that will never be

Even though I tried my best.

Now all I want

Is to put all this to rest.

 

So let this be

My final words to you.

Just let me say my peace

And then I'll be through.

I guess all I really

Want to say

Is if hating me makes you happy,

I wouldn't have it any other way.
