To The One I Love

Yesterday, I suppose, I told you something you did not want to hear
"I've met someone new."
You congratulated me, but I could feel your pain
Don't forget I am your soul mate always and forever
There is nothing between she and I, we've only known each other two days
I called you last night to ask you a question not about you and I, but you wouldn't speak to me.
I think I know why. I heard you over the phone, you know
The anger in your voice filled my heart with sadness and sorrow
I am asking you if you read this, you know who you are, can we not be friends or at least talk?
I have many things I want to say to you especially now but I cannot reach you
Call me at work or send me an e-mail, you have no idea how much I miss you.
I am hoping we can at least be friends and begin again.

This is sad, Paris Girl, sometimes it's not possible to keep from hurting, keep writing....

sometimes Laura, it's better to just let go. . . . . . no matter how hard it is. . .

heartfelt words. . .

Please...don't encourage her! Ha! Sorry, Laura...I'm with Sven. No offense to your true love, just think it's time to move on. But then again, who am I to be giving advice.

seperate directions. wishing you nothing
but the best in life and love.

This touched my heart deeply. Painful. And that, is never easy. I applaud you for writing it. Bare honesty is not always easy.

A brilliantly-written, sad write....I agree with the others about moving on but, if you truly love her then I say, take her back.

Laura, sometimes we need to say goodbye, it might hurt, and it probably does, but we need to let go. Sometimes all we hurt by our actions is ourselves. And sometimes the pain goes too deep to bare, it can't begin to heal until we say this is the end and draw a line through that page of our lives.

Not that I can offer any advice, except look within to find your answers, they are there.
Take care

Laura,

i dont know whether i am unwittingly leading you on, asking you to have faith and keep hoping while the others advise you to move on with your life...

am i giving the wrong advice, i wonder?

well i always believe in this line and it has guided me through life thus far:

hope for the best but be prepared for the worst

take care
