The birthday gift.



He would be the most close-minded person she had ever met.
She tried to understand him even though she was the one hurting.
For he never listened to her.

He never cared about her feelings.
He was one happy-go-lucky guy,
A spoiled brat, self-absorbed, and womanizer.
Never had she thought she would fall in love to a man like him.
But she did, didn’t she?

She sacrificed a lot of things when they were still together.
But she had never known if it meant something for him.
Perhaps not. It wouldn’t matter to her anyway.

She used to love him;
She would only want to remain them as friends.
But he would desire more than that.
Nevertheless, she wouldn’t want to give in.

On his birthday,
She would be giving him a gift that he would never expect.
She would bid him farewell; her last goodbye.

It was the thing that she planned to tell him for a long time,
But she would always feel bad every time
She would look him in his eyes,
Seemed they were telling her he needed her.
She took a deep breath and told herself:


Not this time, for she already had enough of him.

Aw...so bitter sweet...but very true to how things come about.

Thank you for the feedback. I do appreciate it. I wanted Ellie to express how she really felt about Kyle.

Thanks for keeping up with "another ellie". Well, she's a bit more hard edge than the other story's ellie. I think she bounces back more, perhaps. We'll see

This is a longer poem than usual. I liked the way you got into this one. I really think you could make a whole novel from your poems.

You know, when I started writing it..I really wasn't sure where it was going. I just think clearly, how his mother said, "Don't answer it..." then I got hooked to write more. I had no idea when Gordy & Bella should reconnect and that was the moment.

Thanks.

Aw... so deep and emotional.
So beautiful and...
I can't seem to find the words...
I just loved it. Loved it so much.

Sometimes the right thing to do is bitter-sweet, but it is still right.
