Why Not?

Because...

I'm worthless
Unloved
Broken
Falling
Shattering

You held me close and didn't let go
I thought you loved me
'til you threw me on the ground

I'm incapable
Pathetic
Desperate
Searching
Losing

You locked my heart
I thought I was loved and cared-for
'till you threw away the key

I'm stupid
Cracked
Injured
Drowning
Dying

I thought I loved you
but I only loved your lies
Now I know not to love at all

    Never worthless, Inky. I don't talk to you much, but you are NOT worthless, trust me. I know how you were feeling when you wrote this-I've felt it myself-but trust me, it gets better.

    That is not true! You are not any of the things mentioned. And I think I know how you feel :/ , you do a pretty good damn job of covering up your emotions (on messages I mean). Dude, all your friends love you, family does too, heck, I love you! If this was over ONE STUPID LAME BOY then I'll murder him with class. Or kill him with style, your choice.

      Not over one stupid boy. This poem is basically revolving around him, though. And a couple other things. And now Brian hates me. Guess I'm going to cry myself to sleep again.

    You are not worthless

    Even though I do not know you, I want to say you are not worthless, someone who feels this deeply about a relationship can not ever be worthless. There are many people out there that have deceptive hearts but someone who writes with such passion and depth like you can only true ever have a heart of truth. I have experienced heartbreak as well but let me tell you that there are other people out there and I'm sure you will find someone who will be there for you.

    Writing negatives like this is a dangerous practice.

    Hello Inkling and welcome to the site. I stumbled across your poem and I just had to stop and tell you this. The effect of WRITING negative statements about yourself in this way is deeply damaging to your psyche. More damaging even than SAYING negative things. Unbeknownst to yourself you are using a powerful a brainwashing technique and I urge you NEVER to put yourself 'down' in writing. This is is not a joke or a crank call. It is sound advice, well meant. Check me out with Brian Balzer if you are wary. My Very Best Wishes to you. Be Happy. >W<

    This is heartbreaking.

    You are not worthless. You are not unloved. I love you. I'm not in love with you but I love you for who you are. I'm sorry that you feel so hurt. I'm your friend and if you want to talk I will listen. You have listed many things I do not believe you to be. You may be hurt but that doesn't make you many of the things you've listed. I've been hurt too. I know the feelings you've listed. I've had them. I locked my heart for long time. I was cold and uncaring. I hated myself. I would rather love and get hurt than not love and feel nothing.

      Thanks, Brian. I love you too. In a...stalkerish kinda way. Lmao. Just kidding. ^-^ In a friend way. Thanks for the comment, Burger King. I still think I'm all of these things that I've listed, though. That's why I put them down. T.T

    Awe, this is a very sad piece. I feel the hurt in this piece. the strong emotion in this is amazing but let me tell you. you are not worthless my friend don't beat yourself down because of a boy he's not worth it and one day he will look back and wish to have you in his arms he's going to see how stupid he was for hurting you and missing out on an amazing person I know it hurts because I have been there and I have to see my ex everyday in school and I hate it but I try to not get too sad because I know their are better boys out there but most of the times all boys are jerks the nice ones are hard to find but never give up because one day you will find the right one and you will be happy and loved and care for and you won't feel worthless because he will treat you like royalty . He will tell you that you are the beautiful girl in the world and that he will never want to lose you don't worry it all takes time just be patient and you will see and remember you are not worthless because you have friends and family who will always love you no matter what and they care for you no matter what and if you were to die we would cry anyway this is a very touching piece I hope my comment helps and well keep on writing because this is amazing

    Love always your friend and Twinny
