Words are never wasted

This poem came out of nowhere tonight stuck in my head as it was being born, as a Poet sometimes we have a muse one of many at least for me that just pushes all the others away because they have important words they need to say so instead of waiting her turn this muse just would not be quite so I let her speak and I am glad I did, because I know who it was about and even though we are no longer a couple or together because of issues on many levels and that fact I actually learned to love myself again because I am a good person but mostly because of what all of you who my poetry have given to your words have really help heal me so thank you. Renee and I tried the best we could but it was never enough to keep love around we both know our reasons

Please remember that words can cut deep like dagger cutting out your very heart they can hurt, wound, and even kill, yet they can be a dozen red roses or stop armies where they stand, they can save lives like they have for me so choose your words wisely and please use them only in peace and love.

Words are never wasted

I just wanted you to know that you really

hurt my feelings just the other day when you

said to me “not to waste my words on

you anymore”, just as a tear begin to form

in the corner of my eye, while the pain that

was coming from deep in my chest was telling

me that my poor old heart was hurting

and broke yet again, but this time it is not

over you but instead what you had said,

you see I very much do believe that words

can never be wasted on anything or anybody

no matter who or even what they have been

written for, and in fact are very special and

dear as they mean so very much to me and

who I am, for every single drop of Ink that 

I spill across all the pages on the paper of

my life's story, carry embedded in the lines

the very essence of who it is that I am, it is

filled with all of my feelings whether they

are good or bad and every single emotion that

are coming from deep down inside of me,

where my heart keeps on always telling secrets

to my poor lonely soul, for I am a Poet or what

you may call a dreamer and I can speak straight

from my heart as I am always listening to what

my soul needs to say while always searching

for those very special people who can touch

both, and I need to let you know my dear

that out of so many others have come so very

close indeed, but I am very sorry to say that

I must leave now, and move forward in my

life and bid you a very sad adieu, after all of

these many years of trying that have been

filled with so much love, hate, fighting, and

forgiving I am convinced that it is time that

we both turn and walk away from each

other with neither one of us at fault or to

blame. I hope and pray for you every night that

one day soon you finally find who or what

you have been always looking for because you

and I both know it has never been me, and

that I can find the one who I can learn to love

and who can return it back to me, so that I

can learn how to let love in once again from

someone who is patient, kind, and understanding

of all the damage that has been done to me. 

Of course we will always be connected down in 

our hearts where love has lived with the other

at one time in the past creating our wonderful

little boy who loves us both the same, our

minds where all of the memories of you and me

shall always and forever be and most of all our

souls where they will always remember all the

many dances that we have shared among all

of the stars in the midnight skies, for you and I

have left each other a little piece of one another

that will be carried as part of who we are and

will be, always and through eternity’s forever

until the ends of all time.
