Off The cuff

This post is going to be diffrent than any other ones I do. This is going to just be a poem that I write now. No editing. I might go back and edit it later, but for right now it is just going to be what comes out at this moment. so here goes (Well first I need to comb my wet hair, then it will be poem writing time)

Recovery

I've been heartbroken,

Had my heart torn in two.

I have given you all of me.

And now I am walking away.

I will not fall again.

I will not jump in that pit again.

I saw the edge,

I contemplated it.

Then I felt the tug.

The tug of the one who loves me more than you.

Not that you ever really loved me.

Not the way I need you to.

I saw the edge, but his pull was stronger.

I stand far away.

I see it in the distance.

I could jump if I want.

But-I won't.

I won't go back down that path again.

You won't-see-me-again.

I may talk, but that is it.

I can't tell you where I have been-

You won't-Understand.

I have something you don't.

-Love- from an ever present-God.

So go along your way.

Don't look back.

Don't go back.

Keep moving forward.

I see that pit.

I know its depths.

I won't jump back in.

I will stay away from it.

So there it is. Hope you like. If you don't understand, then good. If you do then great. I don't care. It is just a statement to myself and someone else or is it? That is for you, the reader, to try to figure out. :)
