-=Drowning In Your Arms=-

I hate this hold you have on my heart,
you've memorized all my weaknesses.
You know I act independent and strong,
but on the inside im filled with insecurities.

I hate how you know i cant hate you,
no matter what you do to me.
Heck I hate myself for that fact,
I wish I could just get over you and live my life happily.

I hate how I'm doing great,
and you're out of my thoughts completely.
Then I see you and you flash that smile,
you really shouldn't do that to me.

I hate how you control me and my emotions,
I fell to fast, now i'm struggling to get up...

I feel like i'm drowning,
and no matter what i do.
I keep falling back into the water,
back into the arms of you.

It's always hard to tear yourself away from someone you love. I know what it's like to be drawn back in with just one smile. This is a very well-written piece. Thanks for sharing.

Wow I dont know what to say. You got it all out now you just have to let go. Its hard to do that but sooner or later you will be able to. I am sorry that you are going through this. It sounds like you are having a rough time. If you ever want to email me or IM me go ahead. I am here for you. Keep up the good work girl.

Hey,
I liked what Erin said about letting go.  Your feelings are written so well into this one, I think you did really good job with it

My favorite part of the poem was the very end of it.  It's always hard to try and forget about a person, but then in the end you can't.  I guess that's what love is all about.  Well this is really good.  Talk to you later!

I'm sorry! I wish I could say I've never been there. The way I see it is there is only one perfect match for everyone, and all the others make room for him! Good work!

Didn't I say the idiot mught be there?  And did you do what I told you to?  Did you smack the idiot at the back of the head for me  

Sweets...i'm so sorry you have to go thru this just because one person turns out to be an idiot.  I'm not gonna lecture you for I know that's the last thing you'd wanna hear from anyone right now.  You know though, this must be the sweetest poem you've ever written so far.  hey, next time don't show him that he's affecting you like that.  I know it's hard for you to stop your tears, but show him that you're stronger than he thinks.

I don't want to say much in here Kiles...everyone reads it.  You know how to get a hold of me.  I'll always be here to lend an ear for ya.

"If only I could touch that frail part of your heart
I'll take all your pain away, and leave it for me to bear
If only I could reach the inner depths of your soul
I'll make sure you understand, that some friends really do care"

just a simple one for ya  
hope you feel better
