Poetry: Ending a relationship

Honestly Okay
Warped sense of reality,
I don't know where to run.
I have never been perfect,
But do I deserve to be shunned?
All I've ever wanted,
Was to be normal.
Instead I've been haunted,
By all of my past mistakes.
Now I'm forced to live,
With everything at stake.
I have not been blessed,
With love or trust,
Instead constantly stressed,
With failure and second-best.
This will always be.
Forsaken is thee.
My loves shall never love me back.
I failed the test.
The test that I was completely unaware.
Honestly, do you think that is fair?
To leave me to be alone,
Until my dying day?
To force me to watch,
All that are around me,
To be so happily in love?
To hear the words, "I love you"
When that is all I ask to hear?
To have that one that will cherish me,
Forever and Always?
Do you really know?
Do you really understand?
How terrible it feels,
To be NOBODY'S number one?
No, you do not!
Because you've ALWAYS had that!
Never a solo moment!
Never an unloved feeling!
Never no one to call.
When all you needed to hear,
Were those three perfect words,
Which make everything completely alright!
But really, I'm seriously,
Honestly Okay.

    Letting go

    It felt as though the stars were burning into my soul.

    It is done.

    Goodbye' I say, with a heavy heart,
    He stares determinedly at his feet.
    His sorrow breaks my heart to see
    As with

    Gloating Too Soon

    I truly did believe
    In a gloating sort of way
    That the man I left
    Would miss me
    When I finally went away.
    How
