Read Poem: ON PURPOSE, by Courtlin Fields

It feels like I have the flu. Every part of me hurts. Tender to the touch.
But its not you. IT- IS – ME.
I sort after you, on purpose!
I told people that I wanted you, on purpose!
I met with you, on purpose!
I dated you, on purpose!
And even when you told me you was leaving
I kissed you, on purpose!
I wanted to get to know you, on purpose!
I allowed myself to share with you, on purpose!
I opened up to you, on purpose!
I argued with you, on purpose!
I played with you, on purpose!
And even when you told me you was leaving.
I cared for you, on purpose!
I laid down with you, on purpose!
I fell for you, on purpose!
IM-IN-LOVE-YOU on purpose!!!
Because you have been so honest with me from the beginning, that you are leaving
I suffer for you, on purpose!
I’m HAPPY for you, on purpose!
Im PROUD of you, on purpose!
But it doesn’t stop my heart from hurting for you, on purpose!
I did this to myself, on purpose!
If you ask me if I regret or would I do it all over again. I would say YES 100x over again and it will be done on purpose!
Every moment I spent with you it was on purpose.
I rather have been with you then not experiencing life without you, because then my life would of
FELT – LIKE – IT – HAD – NO PURPOSE!!!
