For I was,

poem by: Taha Hassan
Written on Oct 26, 2017

They Liked me, loved me,
Cared for me,
For I was a tool.
They craved me, sought me,
wanted me,
For I was a tool.
I happily helped them,
endlessly,
For I was a fool.
I thought They had loved me,
Thoughtlessly,
For I was a fool.
They used me, kept me,
Siphoned me,
For they were too cruel.
They wronged me, threw me,
got rid of me,
for I was .. no more useful

Thanks Frank .... But don't mistake by thinking that my anger is towards others. My Anger is directed towards my own self. -T

How could I

poem by Taha Hassan

How could I think that I'd be loved? How could I think that I'd be heard? How could I think that i couldn't see any darkness within my heart of misery? The longing for a heart eats me inside. The breaking apart kills me i... Read more
