you throw me away.
I'm tossed to the curb,
like my brethren, there I shall stay.

We have shared tears,
We have shared blood.
We have shared sweat.
We have shared love.

I am there
in your times of need,
try sleeping without me,
my warning you shall heed.

The poem is about an ex-lover, right?

Okay, now here's my poem:

The unecessary feeling that rises in your heart as it sets things in motion,
Like bile after a day of rain that clouds your vision,
Will only hurt you more.

Though why I'd tell you this
Isn't quite clear to me,
But don't think I'll want to come back.

And although this wouldn't have started without you,
You really hurt me,
But I'm not going to miss you.

Every moment of every day I'm moving forward,
Just a little bit farther to go,
And if they'll have me then I'll pick my own forever companion.

There is a slight hesitation at this decision,
But it's my new adventure
Without you.

It's true that this couldn't have started without you,
But baby you're not mine anymore,
And if I ever was I'm no longer yours.

I'm moving on to someplace new in my heart,
I've found a better reason for living,
And I'm not even in all that much trouble by myself.

Imagine that through your pale skin,
With your chocolaty brown eyes,
And your curly brown hair.

I've found a new reason for living without alternative,
And that's to hurt myself
Or to find a true love.

Can your ego handle that,
Without you by my side
I'll still be a better person.

So yes it's true this couldn't have started without you,
And maybe after all of it I'm grateful to you,
But did you really have to force your way to please someone?

Why was this person so important?
But it doesn't really matter anyway,
Because I'm living for a different reason now.

I have an emotion
That carries me through the day,
And it's all my own.

You'll never see me crying
Because if you still do then you're not gonna want me anymore,
I'll make sure of that.

You'll never see my true smiling face,
If I have one,
Because you're not important to me like that anymore.

So I might wonder if I will ever fall in love,
And have a true romance,
But then I just have to remind myself of some things.

And someday I'll be completely healed,
Though I'm away from you,
And I'll have my own companion.

Someone who will love me right,
Someone who won't hurt me because they can,
Someone I'll give my whole self to.

Someone who captures my heart,
Someone who steals my breath,
Someone who reveals my wholly love for them.

This is my dream,
This is my goal,
And this is not your fantasy.

Oh yes, baby,
I'll fall into the whirlwind of real love
Later in my life when I'm ready.

But it won't be you,
Just as you won't be there,
For me for you.
