THE HOLE THAT CAN'T BE FILLED

You filled a hole in my life.
But it wasn't a relationship hole.
And it wasn't a lustful hole.
It was some other special kind of hole.

A deep friendship of some kind.
Partly from the heart but more from the mind.
But I started to play the wrong role.
I tried to fit a square peg into a round hole.

I thought it would be okay.
If we just didn't go all the way.
If we just stayed close and remained good friends forever, that would have been really great.
But you can't knock one out of the park, round the bases, and stop just a few inches from home plate.

Things got out of hand.
It didn't go as planned.
Now I miss you.
And I know it was all my fault anyway.
But I miss you.
If I ran into you now I wouldn't know what to say.
I miss you.
I hope we get together again some day.
If we had to do it again,
I wouldn't do it the same way.

Since you've been out of my life
it feels like part of me's been killed.
Since you've been out of my life
There's a hole that just can't be filled.
But it's not a relationship hole.
And it's not a lustful hole.
It's some other special kind of hole.

Wow, well done.

It shows the consequences of things, and the feelings left behind. There's always someone left behind...

Sincerely,
Titus

Titus and shugarhigh,

Thanks very much for your response.  A lot of people may not be able to relate to the feelings here, it is a little different, but I'm glad that you enjoyed it.

I've noticed that if you leave on good terms people tend to come back around...but don't wait for them...they don't want you to...in my opinion....James
