I Don't Want To Give You Up

There is something about knowing
The one you love might leave
That you can't ever have their love again
Their sweet gentle kiss
Tiny breaths on your neck

Some things are disheartening when you realize you
Simply dont want to let go
So scared to face the future
Sweeping up the past
Sincerely wishing for things that can't be

I won't lie to you
It's inevitable that I'll cry
I can't hide the hurt and fear inside
Insisting everything is all right
I don't want to give you up

But separate we must
Before bitter memories sweep in
Burning everything behind us
Be it as it may I know this
.....I still don't want to give you up.....

~To Matt~


Time flies? Say it not so, time stays we go.

Cuddlez~
This is hauntingly sad, but feels like
you've put a lot of thought into it.

Hold onto the good memories and cry your tears.

Cuddlez,
Sound like you've really thought this through. Beautiful sentiment and heartbreakingly open.
Be well

I have thought about it.... Thats part of the reason it sounds so sad. But if you still have the memories and you let the person go, is that giving someone up?

Oh, Cuddlez, it's so sad...
You're such a strong person if you can let go, I couldn't...
Beautiful poem, hope all works out for you.

Believe me, it took a lot of leaning on friends, writing poetry, tears and long walks to get this far. And I still dont want to give him up. Its been a yr and some mths since we "broke up" and we have been hanging on by a thread for all this time. Thing is... everyone's confused and I'm depressed always having feelings about him when he isn't mine (that and hes moving) so.... Thanks for your support. It is my firm belief that everyone is stronger and braver than they give themselves credit for....
