When we first got started
     I so much wanted for more
And now we´ve reached that point
     I realized how good it was before.

Wanting you to be all mine
     have cost me all the good times
Couldn´t wait for you to love me true
     was loosing the best of you.
Now looking back to all the things we used to do
I´m bound to believe that I really was
     so special to you.
Loved and cherished
     together with tiny loving kisses
Long talks over the phone
     keeping me awake until dawn
And all the love you have shown
     have now left me all on my own.

I´m sorry if I´ve been so blind
     couldn´t see you were already mine
Your love so fine
     where I used to be the first one on the line
Are here to remind me
     how you used to love me.
Now they are all gone
     that moment of time were I used to be the one
Who can bring up your smiling sun
     where you and I used to have fun.

In my heart I know I´ve done nothing wrong
God knows all I´ve wanted was a place to belong
     someone to hold me tight
     someone to love me right
Are all I´m praying for in every crying nights.

If you´ve felt I´ve took away your freedom
     and invade your privacy
Then you must have misunderstood me.
I´ve never meanted to do you any harm
All I wanted was a hug to keep me warm
     and to feel safetiness in your arms.

I don´t know why and I don´t know how
     I lost that love in you
cuz all I ever did was love you true
And I´m so sorry if my love for you
     made you want to be free
There´s nothing else I can do but let you be
Hoping you´d find that love again
     what you had for me....

cknavarro: i like this... mostly because it's different from the majority of the "why dont you love me?" poems i see in the teen forum... i'd have to say that the final stanza is your best here... the ideas are concisely and well-conveyed... good job

sincerely,

As e'er beneath a waning moon was haunted
By woman wailing for her demon-lover!
