let me count the ways
that used to make me
think that i was
falling in love with you,
then let me know
i already fell.

the way
  you talked

the way
  your voice
  slightly went up
  when you got excited

the way
  you locked your
  jaw in church b/c you
  were trying so hard not
  to hear anything

the way
  you were searching for
  someone, or something
  to fill whatever was so
  empty inside of you,
  but never admited that
  you needed anyone!

the way
  you smiled at me every
  time i did or said something
  naive or stupid

the way
  you made me feel
  weak in the knees
  just by holding my hand

the way
  you taught me how to have fun!!
  
the way
  you looked when you
  didn't think anyone
  else was looking

the way
  you looked at me

the way
  the way your hands felt
  when you were nervous

the way
  you treated me like
  i might be beautiful

the way
  you kissed me

just the way
  you held me

all of these things
made me love you
all of these things
let me let you go
all of these things
i'll keep forever
all of these things
are gone.

this is the LAST poem that i am going to write about a 'certian someone' i know. (or at least the last one i'll be posting)  i think that we are over for good this time - and i think it will all be ok...we are still BEST friends and will always be! and i think i will always love him -- but in a different way, ya know?? <<i think a lot>> well, i am sorry that this was so long, but i thought as long as it was the last one, it might as well be the longest one!! i love you guys and hope some of you respond to this. later    PHARON

I know how you feel and wish I could gget the nerve to say these things to the person who is still partially a part of my life...but broken up for good. But I think I just found that little bottle of courage and will do it. Thanks for the inspiration! I'll keep u posted!! Love YA Lots! Keep up the great writing!! Love Always~*~Jessica~*~
