Crying on the stairwell

An event that occurred a few minutes ago

I'm sorry to have tried.
I'm sorry I was vague.
I feel broken in the presence of the Writer's Cafe.

I shouldn't have tried.
Given it no thought.
If I had left it alone,
I wouldn't have cried.

It's my fault for believing,
For thinking I had a chance.
I'm sorry, a thousand times over.
Soon, I'll be leaving.

To the dreams of my heart that will never come true.
To the thin cement sidewalks,
Tear stained, metallic blue.

To the one I had fallen for,
Je suis desole.
That's all I have in my heart.
All that's left to say.

I'm broken and miserable,
A feeling not new.
I had hope,
I had hoped.
I had faith in you.

Forget it,
Just forget it...
Forget all I've said.
And take from me the pen, the sword I wield instead.

I'd rather be alone,
Where no one can find me.
Than be hurt so much,
That my heart's ripped out the binding.

Very deep, and moving write...I can relate to this.
I won't ask cause I don't want to come off as being
Intrusive but this seems to me a cry of despair from
The heart, a fresh wound, old would that has been scratched
Open.

Sometimes we have to know when it's best to walk away
From a situation, person that is demeaning to your soul.
Despite our love for them. I learned that the hard way.

That said this is an eloquent write with amazing dictation...
Bittersweet imagery and meter. Despite it all..keep
That pen of yours raised!

Yes, at times it's best
To take a break on here, and be alone in silence...
To again listen to our own muses' voice. Due to
The fact that this site has a tendency to become
Way too distracting, even detrimental to one's
Creative growth, too much of a cafe now.
Thank you for sharing this. :)

"Falling, in the atmosphere of the cafe" describes the situation that led to this. It's in my writings.

I've considered leaving, but I haven't made any final decisions. I'll let you (and everyone else) know if i choose to leave.

Okay i will be waiting but i hope you don't leave! I feel like you probably have a lot of poems that you could post and you could meet new people that would like your works and etc but sorry iI got side tracked... I hope all ends well

Oh my gosh... this is a rather dark piece... I don't believe I've ever felt these feelings in such a way as you have.
