This is a poem that I wrote to my boyfriend, Sebastian. He lives in Utah and I live in Ohio. For homecomming this year, he was a gentleman and took the new girl at school to home comming. I was a jelous girlfriend and got mad. Then the same thing happened with me. I started to like a guy from school. Sebastian was handling it so perfectly. He said he was happy for me. Then everythign just fell apart in one instant. After about a 2 week ordeal with what we should do with our relationship, I wrote him this poem. It made him cry and we areback together now. Things worked out for the best, when I only thought they would get worse.

Why I Need You....

Looking at you with another girl in your arms,
makes my heart burn.
The thought of her getting to touch you, creates knots in my heart.
I know recently you have had these feelings too.
I try my hardest to make you happy,
to help you not think about things.
But lately, it seems Im digging myself a hole.
A hole I cant fill,
it gets deeper and deeper,
day by day.
At the end of one days convorsation,
we are friends again,
not lovers, but almost.
Then another day comes,
you tell me something,
and I cry again.
You feel bad and appologize,
“im sorry, dont cry”
they all sound so familar.
They comfort me for the moment,
then that night when Im laying in bed,
the memories of everything I have done to you,
they come back.
I lay in the darkness of my room,
alone,
no one to comfort me,
or to ask whats wrong.
I lay there and cry myself to sleep,
night after night.
All I want when Im laying there,
is someone to touch my cheek,
and tell me it will all be ok,
but I know there is no one there for me.
No one can see or share theses feelings I have,
no one understnads.
Thats why I need you.
Your the only one who can understand.

Thinking is just what a great many people think they are doing when they are merely rearranging their predjudices.
