He never loved
me and he
showed it all
the time
Left me hanging
high and dry.
Left my questions
unreplied
I cried maybe
half the time
in between sobs
asking why why why
It started to become
clear but sex was
good so it kept
me near
Rotation of women
Invited to his room
he couldn’t even keep
a count
I wrote sad poems
and cried
while I made
them rhyme
Always had eyes on
all other women
around persuing them
without care
So I’d go home
with a frown wonder
what was wrong
with me
Coffee not sweet?
Chicken not right?
Not good enough for
the night?
Until one day
I was sick of
only him enjoying
the ride
Truth be told
I came maybe 1 out
of 10 times, by my
hand to satisfy
He never loved
me but I do
did and
always will
So with men like
that, I’ve learned to
close the door. Ladies
just say no to manwhores.

Wow. I really really admire honesty in poetry. This was a very honest piece. Great writing.
Just so you know, we aren’t all manwhores lol
poetaflor
Thank you. It was very therapeutic. I’m well aware. This particular manwhore needs the punch however lol
inbetweenthemadness
Lol well give him a good punch. Bringing our good man name into disrepute like that lol. Writing is amazingly therapeutic.
poetaflor
I’ve been contemplating whether or not to share it. lol Yes the pen is a friend
inbetweenthemadness
I find sharing them helps with the therapy more than not sharing although some are harder to share than others. It helps build an inner strength I feel.
poetaflor
Definitely better to share. The beauty is to transform the human experience into art. Making those transformations happen help build the inner strength.

That’s very true and so eloquently put. Can tell you are a poet! Lol it’s taken me a long time to learn how to share my feelings which is why I’m like I am now I believe. But writing is a start and has shown me it’s ok to share. Just got to learn to do it via talking now lol
poetaflor
Haha thanks. Sharing feelings makes you vulnerable. It’s not easy to do at all. Part of the trouble with feelings is being in tune with them as well. Most of the times people aren’t taught about different feelings. You can do it. It’s just one step at a time.

Aw thanks. I have therapy once a week which is helping a lot. I’m slowly getting there. One day at a time. So long as I have my pen and music I’ll be fine 🙂
poetaflor
A good therapist will help you so much. There’s no time limit, just be patient with yourself. You’ll arrive when you’re suppose to as long as you’re working towards it. I’ve been going to therapy for 2 years and it’s helped me a lot.
inbetweenthemadness
Thanks. I’m open to the idea and have found one I feel comfortable with so that’s a start. Glad yours is helping.
poetaflor
Thanks. I wish you well on your journey
