My own world

0 posted 2007-10-07 01:57 PM



Dear boy,

Did you know that I love you,
Did you know I still care?
I might pretend but don’t be fooled,
I’m still wishing you were there.

I hope you know that I’m ok,
After months of tears and pain,
After months of knowing you’re no longer mine,
Times that nearly drove me insane.

Normally I’d embrace a change,
Enjoy the start of something new.
Normally I wouldn’t be stuck here,
But any normality ended with you.

Did you know, boy, that you are
a world full of wonderful and darkness  rolled into one.
You can make me laugh and make me cry,
All before the day is done.

I’m stuck somewhere between the lines
Of what will and won’t ever be,
you cut me out then sew me back
but won’t take a chance on me.

Such a sad pathetic girl’s cry,
I crave to gain the love I lack.
My heart years to hear the words
I know you will never say back.

I’m sorry I let myself fall so deep
For a guy who could only bring tears,
I’m sorry that I let that love
Consume me for all these years.

I’m sorry that I lost my way,
But I’m not sorry that I loved you.
After all the things you put me through
I’m not sorry that I still do.

I guess I just wanted to let you to know
Although I love you I won’t make a show,
Cause it hurts like hell to love someone
Who fell out of love with you long ago.

Love Always,
           Me

Erin, this was my favorite stanza of the whole thing because I have a friend right now who knows she deserves better and that she loves this boy but she is having trouble letting go. and the part that says "I'm sorry I let THAT love consume me for all these years" it just really reminded me of her situation. This was a great poem, as is all of yours.

If you happen to get a chance, I wrote something a few weeks ago called "yes, you always could dress insults so lovely" and I think its worth a read. It's the first read thing I've written in a long time. thanks.

This was amazing.

=)
