What Happened

Here's a new poem
I lay awake in my bed
Thinking of you

Thinking about
What happened
That tore us apart

What we could not say
What we couldn’t do

What we did
At that place
At that time

Why there
Why then
Why couldn’t we wait

Why can’t we say
How we feel
Why can’t we be ourselves

What happened to us

I can’t get it
Out of mind

It’s a fairytale
In my mind and
It won’t stop playing

It hurts too much
To say what’s true
Please tell me what you think.

Becca,

I like this poem a lot. What you wrote is what I have been thinking about. I am not with my Josh anymore, and all I could think about is what you said.

Keep up your excellent work....

Wow! This poem is great! Tell you the truth it relates to what I've been wanting to say, but you have the talent of actually getting it out of your mind and onto paper. Keep writing!
