It's been a while since I posted a poem, so here is a brand new one I just wrote today! It is called, "Ungrateful" Enjoy!
People never appreciate what they have until it's not there anymore. You should always be thankful and grateful for what you have, because once it's gone, it's gone, and may never come back. When some things are gone we lose them forever. Cherish what you have while you have it. Take advantage of the opportunities that have been given to you and you are lucky enough to have. Life is too short so enjoy it to the fullest! And you should also always be very careful what you say and what you wish for.
Ungrateful
By: Vickram Bachan
I gave you everything
and you threw it all away,
How could you do this to me?
I don't even know what to say.
After all I've done for you
you stabbed me in the back,
A dagger through my heart
and an unnecessary attack.
My soul is ripped and torn
as you twist the knife,
all I do is love you
and you cause me so much strife.
You all betrayed my trust
and took advantage of my kindness,
I was always gentle, honest, and just, and
you made people believe things that are bogus.
I would never hurt
or do anything to hurt you;
you should be ashamed
and you know it's true.
I gave you all the best years of my life,
all the time and energy I put in and spent,
How could you? How dare you?
This is torment, I hope you repent.
We have so much history
and you leave it all behind,
how can you be so cruel and mean
when I am so kind?
You were my family,
my friends and my equals;
I treated and valued you so highly
but you sunk my heart like anvils.
I never wanted or asked for anything in return
but this is the thanks I get,
I don't deserve this at all;
thinking of the day we met even I now regret.
I can't believe it!
What have you done?
This is unthinkable
This is like arson.
You burned the bridge
that I work so hard to build,
we had a great thing going
until it was killed.
Why did you sever this beautiful tie?
When it didn't have to die,
You stomped all over it and spat in my face
I just don't understand why.
How can you be so cold?
How did your heart turn to stone?
You became an ingrate,
I never would have known.
I provided golden opportunities
and you squandered them all,
I always help you stand
but you just make me fall.
I do, and have done, so much,
but you appreciate none of it,
your treachery is an insult
and has broken my spirit.
How can you hurt me like this,
when all I ever did was love you?
I cared about you all so much,
more than you ever knew.
My life will not be the same
and you are responsible,
my only hope now
is turning to the Bible.
I may be able to forgive,
but you must make the first move,
I'm willing to take the next step
if it means things will improve.
Is this the end?
Well that is up to you,
Do you want to make amends,
or will this heartache continue?
