A Heartbreak For A Lifetime Poem by Jessica Harrington

I was close
Close to getting my love
Before another came
And took him away
He was falling in love with me, I could tell
But when she came...
He fell out of it so quickly
And fell for her as quickly
We sang together of our love
Before she came along
Now he's scared of what I am
And cuddle's with her
They're engaged, did you hear? I did
Her and I fought, I almost won
But, he came and took her away
Now her war is his, I wanted to leave him out of it
Now I'll make him choose
Between a life with me and the girl's freedom
or her death and his freeddom
He told me he hated me... I'm sorry, but you drove me to it
Just choose!
You chose me... only to save her
You kiss me making my heart soar
But some thing is wrong
Very wrong
You didn't say you loved me
You only came to me to save her
I make a deicison
I cry and my heartbreaks
He doesn't love me! repeats throught my mind
I set him free to go to her
He runs to her, frees her
I cry harder as they kiss, and I run away
I hear him talking then chasing after me
I admire the painting of the two lovers, kissing, on a bridge
The painting i did of us
he came in and handed me the ring
The one i hgave back to her
I cry harder than ever
'I love you, please don't leave me! ' i beg.
He smiles sadly, kisses me on the forehead and leaves
I bury my head in my hands
Cryin and shaking uncontrollably
I feel like im going under open heart surgery
without any anesthetic
My heart will never heal
The pain will last till I die
