I'm moving on,
what more can I say?
I may love you,
but I'm gonna let that feeling fade away.
You hurt me so much,
and I tried not to let it show,
and since I've done that,
I've given myself will to let my heart grow.
I'm going out,
and having fun like I did before,
and I see that
I can be happy without you once more.
Sure, I still care,
even after what you tried to do to me.
But I'm moving on,
and in myself I can see,
someone strong,
who has become happy again,
and someone who
will not be destroyed by all the lies and pain.
I can honestly tell you,
that no matter what you think you see,
I'm moving on,
and I can be happier than you think you've seen me.

I like this because it shows that there is always life and happiness after a failed love.  And, that you have strength to move on, beyond the controls of another person.
Nice work.

Great poem, with an important lesson into the bargain.  I am also learning about light beyond the rain. Your poem sums it up perfectly! Keep posting!

I don't know what else to do other than move on.  After all the BULLSH** he pulled with me, I don't know what else to do but move on.  I could've never really been as happy with him as I thought I was anyways.  I still love him to death, but I won't let what he did to me keep me from being happy.  I'll just smile, like I did when he told me his feelings.  
Anyhoo, thanks for listening to me ramble a bit about the situation.  Thanks for your replies, too.  I'm moving on baby!

This poem brings hope to my heart that htere is life after love. Thanks for the inspiration!

It's not the angry words that break the heart, it's the silence.

Someone said that true love is like a ghost -- often spoke of but never seen.
I've seen both and yet in my darkest hours, tend to believe that neither exits.

There is always life after love,
although it may be hard.  
I'm just going one day at a time,
and doing what it is that makes me happy.

angel, I know you hear this all the time, but I can so relate to this. I broke up with a guy after 8 months together because I thought he was keeping things from me. It turned out he was lying to me about several things, even as we were breaking up. He told me God had spoken to him and told him we should 'take time apart', which was bulls**t, just because he wanted to get this girl to ummm, let's say please him, because she was moving to Germany. he also lied to her. It sucks sooo bad, cause I still love this guy and it's been over a year. But if you can recover and be happy again, then I guess i can too. Laterz.

*runs over and gives you a big hug*
I don't know what to say, partly cuase you are a friend, and as such it hurts me to see you hurt, and partly cuase it is three in the morning and I've been on a plane all day. Well, I'm back now, so if you need to talk, I'll be here, and I'm always willing to just listen, which I do very well sense I don't talk much. BTW, a very well written poem.

Pharon~
Moving on is the best thing to do, even if it is hard.  What else is there to do?  You can't dwell on it- it'll just make things worse.  You know, everything will work out all right in the end- it almost always does.

LyricFetish~
Ouch, what a way to lose a man.  Mine was a good way, too, honestly.  He was just f**king with my head, and every promise he made and saying he loved me was just said so that when the right time came, he could hurt me.  It worked for like, 2 seconds.  I won't hate him, because it's the expected reaction, I stll love him, but that's just the way things work out.  It's okay to hurt, but don't put your happiness into a relationship.  That's where things go wrong.

Sam~
Well, now that you know the story, you understand.  I can't say I won't need a friend, because I know that every once in a while, I will.  But, along with that, I'm over him the best I can be after being told everything 4 days ago.  I'm still happier than I have been in a long time, so I'm doing good.  Thank you for being there for me, though.

Love ya'll,
Kristi Lynn

yeah, I hear you. Relationships this early in life usually do in in heart-ache. I've decicded after many failed attempts that I'm not making any more commitments to just one guy untill I'm in college and can handle all the responsibilities of a serious relationship. So for now, casual dating and moonlight kisses work for me!  

Love ya,
Meredith

No worries about me not being there, cuase, well I'm always willing to make time for friends. It is good that you are over him, I guess, becuase it is never good to dwell on strong emotions, things tend to fester into hatred and bitterness that way, I know, I've seen it happen before, twice actualy. Well, I was there for Nathan when it happend, and a damned good thing I was, but that dosn't matter right now. If you need to talk, yell, scream at/to anyone, well I forgive very easily and will put up with a lot from a friend when I know they are going through hard times. And even though you say you are happy, and you probably are, it is still good to sit down and have a good cry now and then. Anywho, I'm here for you if you need me, and probably wouldn't leave if you told me to.

Meredith~
That's all I'm doing right now is the casual dating thing.  It's fun, but I tell all the guys that I'm not looking for a commitment or a relationship- I'm not ready for one.  I must admit that there are a couple of guys that I wouldn't mind, but in the future...

Sam~
If I wanted you to leave you'd have to!  You have no say- 'cuz I'm a woman, and women control all!  LOL!  j/k, don't worry.
I'm glad you'll be there for me, it does help just knowing that I'll always have someone to turn to at one time or another.  Thank you Sam.

<div align="Center"><font face="Arial, Arial, Verdana" color="#cd7f32" size="2">I feel sorry for you...
but you are right you had to move on
especially if you didn't like to be with him.

But I have a problem. The girl I love got a boyfriend. She's the only one I love among all the girl I know. I have been in love for 2 years now. And it's still going on. So I don't know why but I can't move. I know I have to if I may survive, but I just can't.

"When you want it most...there is no easy way out..."

I can't realize it... and I can't win, but I can't move. My heart let me down, but that's the way it is.
I refused many girls, just in hope...that she'll come to me. I thought she loved me, I mean the way of her reactions, when she saw me. But suddenly I got a message from her, that she got a boyfriend.

-----------
I can read her minds
I know her story
but I can't understand
she's all I ever had
-----------

(my hearts is crying, I won't cry, I'm a boy, but nobody can see, lonelyness starts to come) I may survive, cause I'm the EAGLE. I'll become a GREAT EAGLE.


That's the way it is...I won't give up!

your sincerly

Mumba~
Hey, I know the feelings you're speaking of all too well.  But, the best thing to do I guess is to try and go on.  I realize that it may be hard- you have no idea how hard it is for me right now- but PLEASE don't put your happiness into a relationship and love and all that fun stuff.  That's what makes it so much harder...  If you ever need a friend to talk to about this stuff, I'm here for you...

Thank you for your reply.  I'm glad that people are taking what I said into consideration.

Hi'

Thank you for your reply. I never said that I knew how hard it's for you right now. But I imagine and compare it with myself. It's really hard to me too. I understand what you mean. but how can I forget her?
She's something special. I'll be waiting on her...I think. Soon I'll set up a poem, which will descripe SOME of my feelings for her? Thank you for your interst in my problem.

AND IF YOU NEED A FRIEND TO TALK WITH about this, I'LL BE RIGHT HERE...

Ciao!
