POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
You gave to me and you justly take
Lord, I know you did what needed to be done,
You are the master,
You watch over me,
But when you act you do so and you do so decisively.
Initially I thanked you for what you gave me,
I had prayed for this for years,
And by your grace you delivered her,
The girl of my dreams.
I did love her Lord,
But now I see that was not the right way,
Because with my love for her,
I allowed my love for you to diminish.
I should have kept my love for you,
But some of my love for her replaced that,
That is not how you wanted it,
And I...

I Really Do Love You You Know
A sweet text or so I thought
I really do love you you know
It seemed strange
But my girlfriend was loving
And it brought a smile to my face.
If only I had given it more thought
If only I had read between the lines
I loved you too
I trusted you
I believed you always.
Why did you send me that text?
Was it because you were feeling guilty?
Surely if you understood you would have stopped
I had no idea the pain that lay in store for me.
Now this got me thinking
You clearly didn’t love me when you sent that text did you...
I really do love you you know
It seemed strange
But my girlfriend was loving
And it brought a smile to my face.

Stevo Will Never Be Defeated
It’s the first time in a week,
That I’ve woke up not feeling bleak
Strangely I’ve got a smile on my face,
To replace the tears that kept pouring down.
Also I don’t know why,
If I said that things had changed it will be a lie.
But I found myself thinking the future,
And the dream job in a land far off that I will be at soon.
I’ve in many ways spent this time well,
Getting fit and preparing the path,
Sure the bad feelings have not gone and still dwell,
But they are being imprisoned by this hope that has somehow overcome me.
Yeah...

I Actually Still Love You
I know I shouldn’t
But I do
Still love you
My boo
I’m hurt and angry
I wake up wanting to rip my pillow to pieces
To destroy something for what you and him did
And are still doing
You’re still with him
The person who has taken away the only person special in my heart
Your’re still with him
Barely weeks after you cheated together and we finished.
I hate it, it makes me angry,
Makes me want to tear down the whole house,
Tear me apart,
And tear him apart.
But although I hate what you have done and what you are...
But I do
Still love you
My boo

Makes me want to tear down the whole house,
Tear me apart,
And tear him apart.
But although I hate what you have done and what you are...

The Last Two Days
Don’t know why,
I guess it’s because I’ve had a lot of thinking time,
But these last two days have been painful,
I was not doing anything in particular,
Doing some extra things in work,
Then sadness took over me,
And I nearly burst into tears.
I managed to hold it,
Got to my room and cried,
Properly cried,
And for me this is rare,
I’ve always said boys don’t cry,
And I’m breaking my own rules.
2 months on,
I know I should be over it,
Relationships break up all the time,
But I thought I had the most amazing person...

Change
Why did you change?
How did you change?
Did I change you?
Did the world change you?
Did you just give in your morals?
What happened still confuses me.
Questions keep coming
Answers don’t appear.
So I think
Think about the past
The good and the bad
Trying to see what the turning point was
We used to chat together
Long Long before we got together
I was there for you
I cared for you
I knew what you had been through
And you were strong and special
Us getting together made me so happy
It seemed like it was...

The Glimmer of things being better
Ive had a good few days,
The future seems bright,
Lots of people in my life care about me,
And I know that theres so much worse shit out there,
Than what broke me over a month ago.
Despite things improving,
I still can’t help that desire,
To hold the person who acted in the wrong way,
Accountable for the pain and suffering my heart still feels.
I hope one day I will forgive this,
I will see it all as God’s greater plan,
But I feel this will be some time off,
When I see that face every second of my shadow boxing.
I must...

I want to be free
I’m a prisoner,
But no have no bars to encage me,
I have plenty of things to do,
Although I have no desire to do anything,
My life is my heart which is in pain and hurting,
I just want that pain to go and for me to be free.
I never thought I would be like this,
A pain where my heart used to be,
It’s the simple things that suffer,
When all I want to do is relax,
The thoughts of what they did,
And the hurtful words she said come flooding back.
Does she know the effect?
Would she care?
Would it make her laugh?
Did she set out...
