A/N: This is something I wrote back around New Year's. I'd had a dream that my ex-boyfriend told me that he still loved me and was wrong for thinking our relationship couldn't work. (He was the one who broke us up.) I was really upset about it and when I'm upset, sometimes I just need to write. This poem is the product of that. This poem could work for any character in any story, anime, or movie, but I finally decided to use it for Scott after Jean died in X2.


Broken

Just when I'm thinking

That I've erased you from my heart

There you are again

And it's tearing me apart

You lurk in my thoughts

And you haunt me in my dreams

I'm having trouble letting go

You still have part of me it seems

I keep looking around

for someone new

But in the end all my

Thoughts lead back to you

I don't know why

I keep feeling this way

I knew it wouldn't last

I knew you wouldn't stay

I'm tired of shedding

All these tears for you

And I'm tired of all these

Emotions I'm going through

I suppose I fell hard

But had no one to catch me

My wounds are healing slowly

Time will tell and we'll soon see

If I'm strong enough

to get through this

As I wait for someone new

And with her a new first kiss.

A/N: Well, there you have it. Obviously, if this was a female's perspective (as it was when I wrote it) that last line said 'him' instead of 'her.' I hope you liked it! Please review!
