floating down a river...

I couldn't begin to explain,
How much I hate you.
{But, oh God, please don't let me go..}
If I'm falling apart when I'm with you,
I don't want to know how I'll be without you.
You must be an emotional prodigy,
You have the ability to make me the most not alone that I've ever been,
While making me more alone than ever.
{That's what I call skill.}
Hey, maybe you could teach me how to forget about you?
You seem to have forgetting about me down pretty well.

Bravo! I really loved this one, especially the first half. The last three lines did not come across as strongly as the rest, for some reason. But I certainly think this is one for the library! Thanks a bunch for the read!

I like the title a lot. I can't say much for the rest of the poem though. I don't know, it just didn't strike a chord with me.....or something like that.

These lines just about made me cry. I don't know what to say. It's a very powerful poem, and I thank you for the opportunity to read it
