Poem

[lady_yashka]

This is also a small drabble on BSV but it originally started out as a simple poem I wrote years ago. The poem is mine. The post contains a small bit of Buffy if anyone wants to read that. Enjoy. =)

Now You Decide

So now you decide to say hello
When before you never would say good bye.
Now you want to see me,
But just days before you acted as if you never knew me

What day did you decided,
When did you realize
That I actually existed?

Two days ago I was beneath you
Now you want me to hold you up.
I never know when you'll change,
One day I'm loved,
Next day I'm dead in your eyes.

What day did you decide,
What made you change your mind,
When did I become something you would love?

Today you want me
Tomorrow will be another story.
When I cry you close your eyes
When you weep you expect my world to stop.

When did you decide I was good enough,
What day did you decide that you loved me?

Because today is the day I decide to hate you.

My that last line is harsh, it sorts of surprises you. Loved the poem, though I'm not much of a poetry person.

"My that last line is harsh...."

I know. I remember that I was slightly peeved when I wrote it. I did feel a lot better once it was finished. :)

Also I don't write a lot of poems. I'm usually not that good at it but on the rare occasion they will actually come out right. :)

Slightly peeved? I'd hate to see you fully pissed off XD

And I like the poem, it's simple and to the point, which makes it easy to read, and makes that last line hit the bulls eye.

Me fully pissed off? My anger burns bright and ends quickly. :P

Some of my favorite poems are written with simple words and are easy to understand. I was never a big fan of using words that nobody has ever heard of much less used.
I figure if I can't understand it, then I'm not going to try to write it. :)
