Your life is going great, you feel so good.
Then the past comes back the way you never thought it would.

Confusion again. What do you do?
Do you forget everything and hurt them too?

You try to explain your feelings have gone.
But they tell you they're still just as strong.

Don't apologise, you're only partly to blame.
He's the one who should now feel the pain.

This "love" thing doesn't work any more.
You've lost those feelings, you've closed the door.

So maybe this time you broke a heart.
But only the fantasy, the dreaming part.

We both had dreams that we thoughts were real.
But forgetting each other was not part of the deal.

I gave up my love, which I shall never regret.
But he wasn't as strong, that I could bet.

I don't blame anyone for the mistake we made.
Maybe I was stronger, so his love had to fade.

But the end to this is not as bad.
I found happiness I thought I could never have.

Good job...sometimes splitting up is hard...but it is something that sometimes, just has to be...your poem captured that....good job!

 "Some people react physically to the magic of poetry, to the moments, that is, of authentic revelation, of the communication, the sharing, at its highest level....A good poem is a contribution to reality. The world is never the same once a good poem has been added to it. A good poem helps to change the shape and significance of the universe, helps to extend everyone's knowledge of himself and the world around him." -Dylan Thomas (1913-1953)
