Why is it that we treat
friends/partners
and
their feelings
as though they will
always be here for us?
We forget to say
"I love you"
We have no time to say
"Thank you"
for the gift of
"Thought"
the gift of
"Time"
We forget to show how much
"I need you"
We take so much
for granted
and then wonder
why we cease
"To talk to each other"
which means we'll forget
"To share"
and then quite simply
neither of us will be here
For Each Other
and then
HABIT
will be something
We Forget!!

very nice, very true, so often the ones we love are the ones we take for granted, and the ones we lose because of it

beautiful poem

Beautiful poem, beautiful thoughts, as long as the realization isn't too late. Hope it's not that way in your case..

ILoveit: Thanks

Isis: Nope, I learned a long while ago, to say what I felt, to talk, to share and to laugh and most importantly, to show how much I care...I just get very profound at night...

"When love becomes a habit, it is no longer love."
Don't remember who said that, but this brought it to mind!
Good message from a kind heart whom I am sure rarely if ever forgets!
