You were greedy
I'd have to admit
Because someone gave you
the greatest gift
and in return
you gave to me
the greatest hurt
that could ever be

So take this gift
and use it wisely
because its all i had
and all i will ever be
I saved it for that special someone
but it was given to you
I dont know why it happened
But it's over so what else can I do?

You turned your back on me
turning it once again
How dare you act like that
How dare you call yourself a friend
You have my heart
Now I want it back
For what you have done
My love is what you will forever lack.

Ashley ((HUGS))  In time the pain will lessen, you will remember only the good you had with this guy.  AT the time the giving of your gift was right, it will be again in memory.  
Get on icq will you PLEASE so we can talk?

I've been around for a few years and met a lot of people and never once did anyone tell me that they gave their gift to the person they are spending their lives with.

That's life, everbody goes through it.

You generally are right when you give your gift to someone, whether you may think it or not. Everything works out eventually, and that doesn't mean that there won't be any pain. You just have to learn from the experience, but remember not to dwell on it. Keep in mind that his life and yours will move along whether or not you're ready to follow. I know, believe me I do, that moving on is very hard but time will ease your pain and you'll be a better person for all that has happend.

The gift must be freely given. . . we give ourselves willingly. . . if we are accepted. . .that is the risk. . . all we can do is hope. . . if we are rejected. . . we give the gift again. . .

you will again one day my friend. ..
