I need you


*We will never understand God's plan, we're not ment too because it's out of our hands. *But before you leave today, take a minute to hear our eulogy *In everything we were going to be, unknowingly, I craved the day that you destroy me, *With all the petty games I played, And all the hateful things you say'ed *How could love treat us this way? or grow the balls to up and walk away! * But hey............................... *silly me.................................. *because now I see how its turned out to be. * Though, just as the moon waxes and wanes none of this pain is ill gotten gains... *The drugs took the emotions away, dam near rid them from us every day, *As it despensed our reality in spurts the ultimate divert is what caused our hurt to invert! * But you never seen it coming....for I was taking all the blows, Without weary remarks, while we stuffed our nose! * and its ok, If you want to walk away, just leave me with our debt to pay... I wouldnt have it any other way. * The lessons you've taught me baby, are rarely sought, unfortunately... for me, they were bought. * I'll cry as you leave with snot on my sleeve, Tho I soon will admit, Im tired of your shit And for you to just leave, is somthing i need! * Eventually, when all my pieces retract, I will pray to God for you back. *With the debth of the damage still yet to be known, unprepared and unaware of the web that we've sewn *My heart shoots pains deep down in my bones. Still you're the one who condones my moans', * Anyway,.... You're ride's here to take you away,..... And it's ok ....... There isn't much of me left anyway. Have a good day..........

This poem is full of emotion and imagery that captures the pain of a difficult relationship. I particularly like the lines, "Still you're the one who condones my moans" which really speaks to the power dynamics of relationships. Overall, the poem has some strong points but the ending could be improved. You may want to take more time to reflect on the self-reflection suggested by the poem in order to provide a more satisfying ending. If you enjoyed writing this type of poem, you might enjoy looking at works of poets such as Richard Siken or Jack Gilbert, who often write about relationships in their poems.
