I think i should miss you,
I really thought i would.
I didnt know i'd feel this way,
I really wish i could.
No more longing for you,
Cravings day and night.
No more needing you,
At the moment thats out of sight.
I know it all will come back,
And hit me in the face.
But right now this feeling of independence,
Is something i never wanna replace.
I love having you with me,
But I love being with my girls.
Unfortunate from me,
I cant have the best of both worlds.
So with you gone,
I had the chance.
To lay back,
And revisit my past.
Dont think that now,
My feelings for you have changed.
But i think my priorities,
Have finally been rearranged.

What a really cool, down-to-earth poem! I love it. It's good and bad at the same time, emotional-wise. This is something that I can relate to... sometimes you expect to miss someone... they have been so close to you and so great... but when they leave, you realize that they really weren't everything in the world, but just a small nibble off the steep mountain I like to call, life. It's healthy, I think, to step back and take a hard look at what you have, where your focus is, and make a wise decision on what you see. Good work!

What a wonderfully powerful poem Shugar! There is nothing so valuable as independence, the knowledge that we can have confidence in ourselves, and the warm and cozy feelings of renewing old friendships. I loved hearing this from you! Keep it up Shugar, and if you ever need a boost down the road, just remember to pull out this poem again! Great writing!  

Best wishes,
/Kit

Wow Shugar! This is really great. It really sort of describes almost exactly how I feel. Keep up the good work!!  

I can't see at all. Even if I could it would all be gray, put your picture on my wall, it reminds me that it's not so bad, it's not so bad.

I think a big challenge in a relationship is being able to balance out time with your friends and your significant other. At first I found this feat quite hard, but I got used to it and mastered the balancing effect with flying colors. Hardly any complaints!
In my opinion....if you can't balance out time then somebody is either asking for too much or you're just rotten at that. I also think that if you left this guy for your girlfriend then the feeling you felt for him wasn't TRUE LOVE. Maybe some form of love, but not the kind people get married for and so on.
Anyway great poem!



I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

I hate your socks. I'd like to burn them!

Its funny Dopey..because this poem isnt even about a BF...its a about my best friend who happens to be a guy..So your right in saying some of the things you said about love...but balancing time is my biggest problem..my guess is i just suck at it..even though its really difficult for me to have the opportunity to balance things out with him....Thanks for all of your replies!

Great poem! Sometimes this happens...sometimes you don't miss that "person" as much as you thought you would. I know that feeling. But it doesn't make you a bad person k? It's good to be able to focis on other things in your life sometimes...like your friends and family instead of always focusing on him/her. Your a good writer. Keep on.

This was really good...i really understood the whole thing, especially since I'm one of your girls...and I love being one your girls...I'm happy about you changing your priorities, but remember that we're your friends and we understand you and your decisions. And no matter how your priorites are arranged, we'll always be there for you.
