This poem is actually a song I wrote. It is rooted within the feeling of defeat and realisation that the person you've been chasing doesn't feel the same way and you are shedding the ideals in your mind and embracing the truth

Tragic (This isn't love) [complete]

I guess I did this to myself

spelt us in a fabricated magic

Is this a cry for help?

Can we mend this many tears in the fabric?

 

I move a mile

while you take a step back

 

You're tearing down

Everything we've laid

 

Giving up a love 

That we almost had

 

Can't you see 

We are crumbling

 

So give me a hand

Give me something

 

I'm tired of giving you reasons

why you should stay

 

 

 

Cause you'll never stay

 

So leave if you want to

I've already lost

I was fighting for you

Now I'm just fighting with you

 

So, I'll let go

 

Cause this isn't love

 

No,

You give me nothing

Not even excuses

 

You've left me no control

 

I've tried everything 

but you make it so useless

 

I can't do this

 

penny for your thoughts

seems mine were worth less

 

I'm done with trying

to clean up your mess

 

Cause you are never going to put me first

 

Don't you know that

 

lost

While you burned down the bridges

while I crossed

 

I'm tired of looking for reasons

whystay

 

I've got nothing left to say

 

You can leave me if you want to

I've already lost

I was fighting for you

Now I'm just fighting with you

 

So, I'll let go

 

Cause this isn't love

 

I'll leave cause I have to

My mind is made up

I get you

So I'm taking off

 

So, I'll let go

 

I thought this was love

But look what it turned to

 

No, we can't try again

I've already given too much

Not like you'd love me even then

we were made to lose

 

Now I'm leaving

And I'm not coming back

You should blame yourself

And live with it

 

I can't keep on letting you break my heart

I'm smarter than that

 

So leave me if you want to

You'll see what you lost

I'm done fighting for you

It's cost

 

So, I'll let go

 

I was looking for love

But I can't find that with you

 

have to

My mind is made up

I get hurt when I'm with you

So I'm taking off

 

So, I'll let go

 

Cause this isn't love,

No

isn't love
