I hurt you..
too many times I know...
I couldn't love
like you needed
couldn't let it grow

promises shared
promises broken
hurting
torn
shattered love

trusting noone
feeling betrayed
left without hope
in our home

can't go back
or change what i've done
I know it's not fair
as I wipe away a tear

I can't say I'm sorry
though you know I am
words are without meaning
when you hurt those who care

so go now and live your life
and I'll be on my way
we will always have a common bond
of the love that we shared
they will understand when they're older
how much we once cared......

Touching Sarah.....I hope to whom this was wrote to may one day see it.  And I leave you with this.  "Just because someone does not love you the way you need...Doesn't mean they don't love you with all they have."  Best wishes.

 It takes only a minute to get a crush on someone, an hour to like someone, a day to love someone, but it takes a lifetime to forget someone.

WOW!!!!!

Give me a minute to remove my heart from my throat!!!

This reminds me of that Dixie Chicks song
"You Were Mine"

there's a line in it that goes:

"I can give you two good reasons to show you love's not blind. He's two and She's four and you know they adore you, so how can I tell them you've changed your mind?"



 All my love,
Jeffrey

I lie awake in a world filled with dreams,
but dreams can be so real when you don't know you're asleep

Sarah...

Liked this one very much. Not that it made me happy, but in a strange melancolistic way it did after all. The mix of heartbrokenness and romance makes it a poem that makes you think...

Keep ´em coming Sarah...

 Ask me how to live your life, and this to you I´ll say: make your choises true and wise, so that when tomorrow will arise, you´ll smile at yesterday...

"Words are without meaning
when you hurt those who care."
Words always have meaning but sometimes they are said at the wrong time.  Speaking from experience it is an accumulation of hurt that finally drives a person to say no more...it is finished...that person had a chance to prove they care for me or love me and now time is up....James
