Fear of Feeling that wonderful pain,
But to do without would drive insane.
Hearing echoes of your voice calling my name,
And it's me for this maddness I have to blame,
Losing you, for playing some stupid game,
now when our eyes meet it will never be the same.

Me staring at your body,
You staring at mine,
Both of us knowing,
It's truly over this time,
So now here I sit writing this weary rhyme.
Because I'm to afraid to call
Because it would cause,
So much pain.
And all those painful memories,
And I know you think the same,
Would only hurt me more,
Because they'd bring you,
So much pain.

Wisdom~very well written! I think all of us can relate to this at some point. This is a feeling I know all too well. But, I will tell you this much-you will find your true love and when you do there will be no one else who could ever replace that person! You will feel so completely overwhelmed by compassion that you'll forget all this pain you're going through right now.Until then, keep your chin up! Best of Luck! Love Always~*~Jessica~*~

always follow your heart, never follow others unless it is truely where you want to go, and never give up a dream, maybe just set it aside for a while... :)

This is a wonderful poem, but it's so sad. I hope everything works out for you, it usually does in the long run.
