Retracting Heartbreak

by Samantha Powers (Age: 20)

Age Rating: 10 +

A contradiction of faith from all of your lies.
Yet the unspoken accusations of adamant trust were untrue.
Forever and always must be a rather short amount of time
For the threats and broken promises have begun so soon.

They told me A dreamer or a poet was who i could never see
Someone who is lost in darkness and corrupted by misjudgment
Who has so many issues and is stubborn just like me

Silence follows after everything appearing in my world is broken.
Shards of metal, glass, and wood surround me,
However I can no longer see truth through anger of my own pure heart.
I hear a crack as I tremble yet I know you will leave.

Flawed attraction holds unkindly and is buried so deep.
Sadness begins to haunt every underlying tone.
Every internal wound just continues to bleed.
the biggest piece of my heart has left the rest so alone...

Time begins to travel even as it continues backwards
Yet the world seems to be held in those sorrowful eyes
They haunt and beg for forgiveness with no words
And our embrace is tight as the pain is sealed,
Yet my mind forever lingers on the unspoken lies.

Congratulationss on winning Cassie's contest. No one was more deserving then you.
You capture your emtions so skillfully and transmit them so clearly. You have such love and compassion yet you seem fearful of giving your all, for as tough as you appear on the outside, you appear most fragile deep inside.
May happiness blow your way always.

Good day! I just wanted to award the praise points I was unable when I commented originally. Your poem is quite deserving of them. ^-^ Even on the second read, this piece was enjoyable. Good work, I look forward to reading more!

Very nice; this was an enjoyable read! The mood, vocabulary, and overall flow of the composition were all very good. I especially liked the third and final paragraphs; they had a great deal of meaning reflected in the written words.

Although, in the first line of the second paragraph, there's a typo; 'I' needs to be capitalized. But that's the only error I saw. :)

Good job! And congrats on winning the contest.

Samantha! Well obviously you're the winner of my contest and I just wanted to congradulate you and say thank you for entering! This isn't exactly what I was thinking when I put up the contest but it ended up working out along with it and I really loved it. It's very descriptive and emotional and I like that you showed the steps and process of forgiveness and the aftermath of how you still can't completely trust them even though you want to and you forgave them. Great write! =]
