i understand
that ive wasted your time
i understand
that you dont want me
i understand
that what i thought will never be
i understand
that we could but you wont
i understand
that ive tried too hard
i understand
and thats why i have to stop
i understand
that im not what you want
i understand
so thats why im leaving
i understand
and thats why you wont hear from me again
i understand
thats why this is gooodbye
i understand
i love you but you dont love me
i understand
so this is my last goodbye
im sorry i wasted your time
youll soon forget me
adios para siembre mi amor

This is great, I love the spanish at the end! After the third "i understand,', when you say 'that what i thought will never be', maybe you could replace thought with wanted or desired, it would sound better. Otherwise, great poem. Love it!

Love is not forbidden but it is a risky to fall into,but if its real-than you should stay true. Love is a funny thing,it cant be bought like a diamond ring. Love is greif and pain, you feel lost and insane.Love is a wonderful treasure,keep it forever

I really related to this. It's simple, but deep. I like how you kept the lower case theme throughout. and the last line of spanish was a nice touch.
