I'll say they never hurt me and look at it as learning

Naquan was my first
and he made love hurt
the only time he gave me thrills
was when we popped some pills
But I loved his attitude and his style of dress
he had had me thinking he was better than the rest
I finally wised up, he was treating me like dirt
He was talking to every girl, yeah he was such a flirt
Now everytime I see him all I can say is "you're such a jerk"

Joseph, Joseph
the one I thought I'd give my whole self to
He had me making plans to spend my life being his wife,
but I couldn't put up with the strife and useless fights
Still I won't pretend like he wasn't my best friend
I still want him by my side til the end of time
"let him go" says my mind, I need to close that chapter
cause in the end what we had doesn't matter

Next came Dale
I can't remember him well
Like dorks we only talked about sports and played Wii,
that's how I quickly realized there could never be a we

Radams made me love thugs
Swore he was hard cause he was from Brooklyn
Wanted to be his girl so bad
I let him borrow my wheels,
cooked him meals,
and made deals just to get out the house so I could be with him
and get lost in his eyes
He wasn't like the other guys,
said he'd never tell me lies
but lust soon dies and I saw him for what he was worth,
not a piece of my heart
I shoulda known from the start

David made me not want to save 'it'
His kisses were sweet and had me feeling lightheaded,
for a second I thought I was a diabetic
I needed to see a medic for the way he made my heart race
He liked me wearing lace, that was his taste
And every minute we spent together was never a waste,
but somehow our relationship was over in a haste
cause we never had conversations
but fuck, I loved his body language

Elijah
Dang
I can't open this door,
he's still an open sore
I tried to give him all but he wanted so much more
He told me I was the one and made him do things he had never done,
Like go down,
and eat it while he made me moan
To this day I can't own up to what I did,
there was nothing stopping me from going out with all his best friends
Remembering the day I made him cry
Why did I let our love die?
Now I miss him occasionally
and wish he would call and say 'hey baby'
but I know that it's over
This is life,
there's no do overs

Next up for a chance at my heart was man candy Randy,
he was doomed from the start
Thought I was amazing and hung on to my every word like it was the sweetest shit he'd ever heard
But he was crazier than my ex
so I had to next him

I like this but I can tell you didn't work on it long, your writing usually has more did this chick really say that to it but still I like this especially the part about naquan. You're a jerk! LOL

i like it! especially the part about one fellow being an "open sore." it's like that sometimes. isn't it amazing looking back at all of these encounters and realizing that you can still love yourself [and write a neat poem]?!
