And Turned My Heart

Once in a great while
something beautiful
comes along
and it happened
when you
came into my life.
I say I "feel" more
than anyone has a right to.
You say we both "feel"
so strongly
and that's why
we still love,
many miles apart.

Though time has passed,
never will we forget
our first words
nor the looks,
your eyes into mine
and the thrill
as we touched...

You say you have found another,
tears touch my cheeks
as they pair up with thoughts
and I dream about
what could have been.
The "if only's"
"why didn't I's"
"how come you's"
all swirling along
with stories we shared,
of hurts, of love,
desires, passions...
jokes you told
to cheer me up,
real "happenings" of mine
that could have been jokes,
and you turned my heart...


As you tell me about her
I say she sounds "sweet"
that "I am here for you, always"
wishing you the best
and hoping it works out...
Answering "she is",
you say
you love me for saying that,
and you hope it does, too.
Yet if it doesn't for any reason...
you are coming after me.
And no matter what
we shall remain
GREAT FRIENDS
ALWAYS...
as "you turn my heart".

*although it didn't turn out that way, as soon as she met me and realized we were very good friends...she made him end the first friendship I ever had on here...sighing...as that friendship meant a lot to me.

Verve...no worries...it was the strangest thing to be told one  day you would be friends "forever" after 2 years and then the very next day to be deleted from his life...


Hardrock...I am fine...this was just the first example of a lesson in "virtuality"...a hard one at that..

~~soft smiles and hugs
to the both of you

Reality isn't all it's cracked up to be...that's for sure.  Liked this a lot.  Linda

Linda, thank you very much whether reality or virtual....every relationship is real in our mind and can be wonderful or end up hurting...but if you don't take that chance you  will never know which it will become.

M, beautifully worded expression of your sadness. I cannot ever understand how someone can delete you like that,
Strangely, this happened with my ex husband, we had a very congenial breakup, were very good friends, and the new woman didn't like it at all. So, abruptly deleted. Not right. I know we have all been guilty of this to some degree, but I really try to keep up my friendships,and my promises. So hard. And yes, an online freind can mean just as much as an in person friend. No question about it.
Take care

CMoon..yes  I agree with all you said...and that is awful to be deleted from an x if you were in fairly good terms to begin with..although that is more the problem of the x than of the new Mrs...just takes some guts on his part.
~~soft hugs
