Poetry: Emotional wounds

by Kevin Southard

Created on: October 25, 2009

Nowhere Do I Belong

The words came from your lips

It's what you said to him

Like a strike from a whip


I so want him to go

I so want him to leave

Now I finally know


Nowhere do I belong

Now I am a burden

I must now remain strong


No family remains

Like everything else

You made them go in vain


My life empty and blue

No friends to lend a hand

All gone because of you


Nowhere do I belong

I thought your love was true

Now I know, I was wrong


I gave you all my love

You just threw it away

Like me, gone with a shove


You loved me once I know

But then he came along

You want him, I must go


Nowhere do I belong

I have nowhere to go

But I've been here to long


Your life with me is through

I must now move forward

A new life without you


The pain you caused will heal

The love that you professed

Now I know was not real


For a time he'll love you

But soon you'll lie to him

And like me, he'll be through


Nowhere do I belong

No longer the case, you lose

Nowhere do you belong!
