I Gave You All What I Had
You're the east and I'm the west
You show the sun rise, my part is when it sets
You toss the sun and I have to catch
You breed life, I breed the dead
You're alive but I'm dead
That's how we play different parts
Opinions divide, our way is wrong your way is right
I try to find peace with us, You keep looking for yours
I make efforts for us, You never tell me it had to be yours
It's okay, I'm easy going I forgive and forget.
Someone important once told it's best to feel less
It's been time, I have mastered it
But someone important did not tell what comes with feeling less
It looks like tragedy but I still feel less
What to do I'm so emotionless
Earth's consuming my leg
I can't feel it, I'm painless
I give it to you, you chop you slice it
Looks good, so bloody red
I am sorry it's my mistake I'm feeling less
I should have cried for help, screamed to express agony
It's my mistake I'm feeling so less
Maybe there's my point of view deep within my cerebellum
Not telling you ever in time, and perhaps you'll never know it's meant for you, so I write secretly over here
I love you too much, this pain feels less
Maybe your love has some power,
The knife you use doesn't feel cold enough
While you cut through my skin to reach my bones
I see this as love, because you asked no one else to give what you're letting me. I wish I could hate you but I'm feeling so less.
But I won't mind, I'm easy going. I'll forgive and forget.
Hope they please you this time,
because I'm bleeding for you right through my bones
All of which I have, all of which you've chopped
This question I ask you secretly over here, which I'll never really in time
How does it feel? To take all of what I have with closed ears and eyes, such that you don't hear what I have to say and you don't see what I've got to show?
You say it's love but seems it's been crumbled while it was within you, thrown in some corner with the least light falling
You take my legs first, next I'll lay you my arms, my belly, it's useless you can have any time, brain if only I had one, my chest, and then when I'm all over, it's the turn for my heart
I'll lay you with my open heart you cut it eat it sell it bury it preserve it,
Hope you will remember in time,
I gave you all what I had
About this poem
This poem is about a toxic relationship of two friends where they really love each other, but with time as people change, so do their relationships. One of them tries their best to please the other but somehow it always falls short. The efforts somehow are seen as less important as compared to what other person might have given in. The person writing the poem is trying best but in turn getting negative comments(Toxic comments) from the other friend. This demotivates them and they decide to give in their all even if it takes life. more »
