Why do we hurt the ones we love?
we don't even have to try.
Something in us makes us say,
the things that makes them cry.

My time here is coming to an end,
I must be moving on.
My mind has taken over,
and my feeligs are all gone.

I had to turn my feelings off,
don't think me cold or cruel,
I don't want to hurt anyone,
but I'm done living like a fool.

I'm tired of lashing out,
in frustration and despair.
All I ever wanted,
was you to know I care.

Maybe I will keep silent,
you have shown me how.
I don't think it's over,
just on hold for now.

I have poured out my soul,
You know all of me.
I know nothing of how you feel,
but I'll wait to see.

Sorry to inconvenience you,
This is only how I feel.
Not that it matters much,
hell, was it even real?

If I was the only one,
to have felt that way.
You sure let it go on too long,
without a word to say.

My mind is in control right now,
I'm sure I'll carry on.
Love will last upon it's shelf,
but not for very long.

We all make hard choices,
some the wrong ones even so.
It gets even harder,
when that choice is letting go.

I say all these things,
knowing the damage it will do.
I only wanted to give my love,
and have it returned by you!

Once I turn it off,
I doubt it comes back on.
I don't want to try again,
just to find my heart is gone.

I think I've tried everything,
I'm sure I missed a few.
Now I am shutting down,
so I'll never again hurt you

I hope you find your answers,
and comfort where they lead.
I hope you never find out,
I'm what you really need.

I knew what it was all about,
and loved you in spite of this.
I'll let you find it for youself,
so you'll know what it is.

"It" is hard reality,
the things we all wish of.
are just broken dreams,
made whole by someones love.

My heart has already stoped,
but my love it never will.
I may someday be gone away,
but my love is with you still.

What is worse than lost and hurt,
is feeling nothing at all.
With out love to blind your site,
you can see the fall.

All my LOVE to Belvenina, my only love!! And apologies for ALL the indecisions

Everything rests in your poem...no more explanations required....its upto other person to know you're such a wonderful person..maybe he'll realize late..but you dont wait...you'll find one who really loves you and you'll feel the best..

Sincerely

Click this is great! And not too long at all...I found myself wrapped up in it. Such painful, loving honesty!
