    Now As It Were and As It Was



    Now as it were and as it was
    Or was it just for the moment and only because?

    Did this just go according to all of your plans?
    Did I not do all that you wanted, was I not putty in your hands?
    Was there ever a moment we had ever tried to erase?
    And when you slapped me oh how you slapped me across my face,
    Did I ever for one moment return you this favor?
    Of course not; how could I, how would I, nope not once
    And not ever.

    But still even though we loved like two star crossed twisted villains
    In books and fairytales.
    We always found the time to make this love last
    And hoped it never fails.
    But all of that was only wishful thinking
    And how I wished we both had taken up to drinking.
    Maybe then we would still be together
    Instead of this.

    This?

    This?!?!

    What the hell do you call this?!?!?!

    Is this what you want for the rest of your life?
    To be remembered as the one that still shoves and twists
    That mother fuckin' knife?

    Well is it?

    Is it really?!?!?!

    How could you live with yourself?

    How do you go on living at all?

    Why the FUCK should I care that you're happier now?!?!?!

    I hope this is what you wanted!!!

    I hope you love this new life!!!

    I hope that this new guy you're with
    Knows that you love to play with a huge ass fuckin'
    Knife.
:icongorilla-ink:

This is not meant to make anyone happy and this is not meant to make anyone mad.

But this was made because at the time of going through this my attitude was horribly bad and oh so pathetically sad.

It had to be said and it had to be written
for once upon a time I was once bitten.

I hope that you all understand
not everyone is made for love be they woman or man.



I hope you like it and if you don't I understand.
Thank you for the views, faves, and comments.:heart:

Very powerful and very well written. I wish I could write that nice when I'm angry. I hope you'll be able to get back to those happier moments in life after the divorce ordeal c:

There's a lot of powerful raw emotion in this, great job putting it together. It's great to get things out and said through words like this.

really good at expressing your feelings you feel the angry but also the contentment
of letting go, may the future be brighter for you, we do learn to let go and we do learn to
love again with trust in time :hug::nod: love may not be for everyone
but there is a love for everyone to find.......:heart:

That was one of the most powerful pieces I've read. I can tell you really poured your heart into that.
Good luck for the future, wherever it takes you.

Thank you very much. :hug:

Writing has always been one of my favorite emotional outlets.
I might not always use the correct verbiage but,
at least I know what to say and how I want it to be said.

Not many people are able to put their emotions down into words like that, I thought it was an amazing piece. I myself haven't had much luck in the way of getting my writing to turn out the way I want it to. I suppose it just varies.

Thank you. :nod:

Yes some days it just really flows
and some days it just goes ...right down the toilet. :XD:

Well writing I was told was in my families blood,
and I didn't believe it was just a matter of genetics that played a part of it.
I got into reading very heavily after my divorce and after I got belittled by
some other people I had run in's with and they tore me apart in a literary sense.

I said enough is enough and I tore down to the nearest library and checked out over 20 books,
I didn't return any of the books until I had read them all in their entirety.

And then I repeated this process until I got my first tablet like a Nook or Kindle,
and now I have over four thousand books on it and I re-read them all every now and then.
I learned how to sit and meditate on the literature or how to speed read it so I could
read up to 3 books on three different subjects a day.

Once you fall in love with books you make the time to read them at all cost.
I still have real actual paper books and those are mostly in a real physical storage facility.

I know that love of books all too well. Ever since I was a little kid my nose has been stuffed in one, hell, ive even gotten detention in school just because I couldn't put my book down and do my work. My room is lined with hundreds of them, and there are even more in the garage, packed away in boxes. I have everything from Larry Niven, to Jules Verne, Henry Thoreau to J.K. Rowling. Reading has been a major part of my life for as long as I can remember. I frequently come down with what my parents call "Good Book Disease", and cant stop reading even if I havent slept in two days.

Thank you very much for the comment and for taking the time to read this. :tighthug:

I had the best and worst moments in my life wasted or spent with her.
We even had two amazing children too.
But if it weren't for my two kid's it would have all been for nothing and we
would have been better off never having met at all.
