Was it worth it?

I'd have given you anything...ANYTHING that this love of mine could bring. I'd have walked on broken glass for you. Done anything...ANYTHING you asked me to. Because all this time I've been here waiting...everyday contemplating...dreaming up ways to make you happy safe secure and mine. But fine. They say that life is tough. That sometimes love just isn't enough. And what I offer might not be what you desire...



But I can say I walked through FIRE, and did everything I could to inspire you to feel the way I felt...and maybe want me as much as I wanted you. And I know it's true. I got on my knees for you. And I cried as I watched you walk away that night so long ago when I needed you the most. And I offered up my prayers to the Father the Son and the Holy Ghost. I prayed that one day you would look my way and see...



That the thing you really needed was just to be with me. But now I sit here crying. Once again I feel like I'm dying and the saddest part is it's just not the first time you smiled while you brought me here. But you're always too damned busy to worry about my silly fear. Well, sometimes beautiful things can come to bitter ends. I wonder if it was worth it to please your friends? I wonder how you would feel if I said goodbye...Knowing that you traded my love for an hour long high?



I wonder if you would tell me it was worth it.

Author's Notes/Comments: 

I wonder if it even qualifies as a poem when I write this way. Well, sod it...who cares. It's here for you to read. I have very conflicted feelings about this poem. Part of me remembers what I was going though and feeling at the time. But mostly...another part of me remembers feeling like a bloody arse when all was said and done.
