Interesting to be on the other side of this poem. I've written the heartbroken girl in a million different ways but when I read this poem it reminded me of the other side. Heartbreak doesn't have to be onesided and your poem really tugged at something in me. The pain and guilt and sadness are almost overwhelming. I especially related to this line: But truth be told, I'm split in two, from the madness that I put you through. something about it just made me stop and catch my breath. Thanks for posting!

I wish to pause... and press rewind. Insert the words that fled my mind. Another chance, so you would know, the man inside that didn't show. Wow. You've really captured the essence of regret with those few lines. Sorrow flows through this poem like water through a bog. It pains me that you feel this way (I hate when people suffer) but you really have a talent and it's good you use it to express yourself and not harbour any of those feelings that can really bring harm to us. Great write! Thanks heaps for sharing aye.
