The End.  
How long can love endure when only one's heart is sure and the other doesn't seem to care if their heart possesses love to share.
And somehow this thought comes to me all those times you said to me;  Hon do you care?  The answer was always Yes I do.  The truth was it was you who were never there.  "Were you?"
How many times did you actually think you could say to me you are not the one, you are not my ideal, you are not my soulmate without hurting me?
I don't suppose you realize that I felt like you were emotionally deserting me.
The love I was giving you wanted to survive and endure.  Each new day was another way to embrace my love with yours.
I always was full of hope that your love would come my way until one weary day I found all my hope had went away and left me standing before you unable to bare any more.
So I told you to go ahead and leave if you are not happy with me.  You don't have to take any more, go ahead and walk out the door.
I felt your unhappiness every day.  Your criticism gave your thoughts away.
Yes I would say you had reason enough to go and now that you are gone you claim to miss me so.
And so you call me again and again saying to me you need a friend.
Yet I do not want to see you again.  I will not be your friend.
These words are both hard and easy for me to say;  Girl will you please just stay away.
I care no more I can not pretend. So please accept this fact.  We've reached
The End.

Reminds me of 'The End' by Jim Morrison    If they leave that should be it, it is plain selfish when she comes back wanting friendship so soon.  Obviously she doesn't understand emotion and the mourning period etc.  Hope she gives you the respect and break you need hon..

okay so now is a good time to invest in some Kleenex stock...it went up after I read this.  Rarely does a poem -or anything else for that matter- move me to tears.  Reading this was very real to me...and real to a situation I just recently went through.  Funny how much unknown strength is hidden in so much pain.
