I’m sitting here thinking of you
I know that sometimes
It doesn’t seem that I love you
And that you think
I don’t care sometimes

Here I am waiting for you
It gets me through the day
Looking forward to seeing you
Even though I sometimes
Should love you by staying away

And when I hear you say those words
About ending the whole thing,
I pretend I never heard
Those words, that kill sometimes,
Because you are everything

The only good thing about disagreement in a relationship...is the making up part!! Hope things get better for you soon!

 Open arms can be the most fragile in the world...

THIS IS ME ALL MIXED UP. "IM SITTING HERE THINKING OF YOU" <==ME   AND SOMETIMES I DONT THINK HE LOVES ME AND DONT CARE. WHOLE SECOND VERSE ME. "AND WHEN YOU SAY THE WORDS ABOUT ENDING THE WHOLE THING" I TRIED SAYIN THEM HE ACTED LIKE HE DIDNT HEAR THEM BUT IT KILLED ME TO SAY THEM. "BECAUSE YOU ARE EVERYTHING" HE IS EVERYTHING TO ME     VERY NICE POEM THANX FOR WRITING IT.

Can totally relate to the words you've spoken here.

"Even though I sometimes
Should love you by staying away"

That's exactly how I feel - and yet the person you're staying away from is your whole life, too.  Hit home hard with this one.

Cool, thanks Michael.

Just another... Thanks, its nice to see another viewpoint. I never thought of it that way.

Devina, This was written in 93 and is an old one like pretty much most of my posts. Everything got better....we got married.

That is what most of us try to do, ignore the hurting words of rejection. It is like telling someone, u are not a good enough of a person for me. I don't want u, (almost as if saying die out of my life.)
