I'll pretend that I don't Love you,
   that we never met
I imagine life without you
   and the Love I'll never get
No anniversaries to share
   no caring and no gain
No more holding in the night
   Just this never ending pain
So now...

I must make that I don't Love you
   and that we never Loved
I go on in life without you
   because I've had enough
No antithesis of "Us" to bear
   no yearning wild and tossed
I will not step into the fire again
   for Love is lost

Geoff---
Pretending does not make it so.
I am all to familiar with the ground on which you stand. All I can say is sometimes I go not day to day, but second to second, then before you know it a minute has passed.
Who knows perhaps somewhere someone awaits to show us the way to a better life.
In the meantime... make lemonade as they say.

Hi Geoffrey,

If I read this poem as being what your life is about, head phones and a rocking chair and my prayers will be sent your way, but as far as it is poetry its just simply awesome, I love it and I hope to see more of your wonderful work, thanks for sharing.

Love, Cerenity
