I think this is the first "love"-related piece I've written that wasn't about someone (GASP!). I was writing this in my head while I was working a few days ago. It's meant to be said in a slow-rap like voice...kind've a basic poem but I like the ending. Criticize me, please.

"Over You"

I can still hear the laughter
Rolling from your eyes
I can still feel your kisses
Against my thighs...
I can still remember
Your body 'gainst mine
And I can still hear
Your voice in my mind...

But I'm over you now
Yeah, I'm over you

I died a thousands deaths
Drowning in your lips
I quenched my thirst
Sip by sip...
With your sweet tender voice
Filling within my soul
You left me defenceless
Against your control...

But I'm over you now
Yeah, I'm over you

I see you in my dreams
Calling out my name
Wanting what we had
To be the same
And I call out to you
With my tears
As I cry for the loss
Of these few years

But I'm over you now
Yeah, I'm over you

And if I say that loud enough
Maybe I'll hear it
And if I kick and scream
And force myself to dream it
Then I'll slowly believe
What I tell myself now
It'll come true...
Somehow...

'cause I'm over you now
Yeah...over you

This is beautifully written.  Its easy for me to relate to the pain you express here as well.
