    You had your day

    My everything, my only love
    yet you betrayed my trust, my heart.
    You tossed me aside like yesterdays trash,
    now seeing how cruel the world is you
    reappear with sorry on your lips.
    I cried for you and went through emotional
    turmoil because of you.
    My world has changed and I thank you
    but I've decided to take back my feelings
    and continue on without you.
    I know the truth now, I know who you are
    and I don't love you anymore.
    The illusion is gone and I am stronger for it
    take your bow and get out of my way,
    yesterday was yours and tomorrow is mine.

    I wrote this poem to empower young women to take back their feelings when the relationship falls apart and be able to move on with dignity and grace.

    Poetry is not an expression of the party line. It's that time of night, lying in bed, thinking what you really think, making the private world public, that's what the poet does.

    Allen Ginsberg (1926-1997) U.S. poet.
