Miriam's Poems 🫶🏼

There was once a young girl and boy who thought were in love and thought they were going to be together forever,
The boy treated the girl as if she was his most prized treasure,
That’s the thing about love, love is when two people unite and choose to share each other’s lives together,
It’s when two people help each other grow, learn from their mistakes and to be better.
To love is to have someone with whom you can always depend,
Someone that will always be there for you till the end,
The girl being 15 and the boy 14, she felt more like a friend than a girlfriend,
She felt like they didn’t connect, just like water and oil never mix or blend.
Deep inside she cared for the guy,
But she felt very confused and didn’t know why,
Months passed, things weren’t the same and all the girl did was cry,
The “love”, the care, the support, and the happiness was no longer supplied.
He changed, he seemed to have lost interest in her,
Little did he know that he was slowly losing a valuable pearl,
His bad treatment towards her caused her to think that it was something that she earned,
No matter what she said or did, nothing changed so she gave up but she never does something without getting something in return.
The boy broke the girl’s trust, she felt very upset and wanted to get revenge,
With no intention, she began to feel a great interest towards someone else and that caused in the boy a strong feeling of repent,
Deep inside, her “boyfriend” cared but he decided to play pretend,
He would put her down and tell her mean things but what he didn’t know was that he was loosing at the end.
Noticing the girl’s interest for the other boy, he felt an instant feeling of regret and then tried to win the girl’s love back,
“It’s way too late, why try to win me back after pushing me away for months? 6 months to be exact,
No moments of happiness but always feeling trapped,
Being lied to and abandoned seemed like she was reliving her past.
Being pushed around and cheated on,
“Why keep me if I’m not the one you want?”
Everyone confused and asked what happened to their bond,
The couple everyone thought was perfect was now falling apart.
“How could you? I gave you my heart and you just simply threw it away”,
“Now I have to live thinking that I wasn’t enough every single day”,
“But don’t worry because you are going to regret hurting me so much someday”,
“I will walk away and you will come running back begging me to stay”.
Days later, he ended up breaking up with her,
“I’m sorry but we aren’t happy as we once were”,
“I don’t feel the same with you anymore”,
“But if you ever need me, I’ll be here for you. I swear”.
She believed that he was going to keep his promise,
But he didn’t which didn’t surprise her because him never keeping his promises was very common,
She ended up right at the bottom,
After the breakup, he started to put her down and make her cry a lot more often.
He did all that to look “cool”,
Always making the girl look like such a fool,
She hated crying and looking stupid in front of everyone so she did everything to avoid him at school,
She just couldn’t handle the abuse.
She quickly forgot her worth,
No one seemed to care whether she was hurt,
But deep down she wanted to feel cared for, she wished that the other boy cared for her in return,
As time passed she learned to love herself, she put herself first, and she realized, “I didn’t lose him, he lost me. I was good for him. He lost a valuable pearl”.
