Don't love me the way he loved me,
It tore my world apart,
Don't rebuild the dreams he made us,
Now they hold a broken heart.

Don't kiss me the way he kissed me,
The taste was sour over time,
He loved her lips, her smile, her touch,
So much more than he loved mine,

Don't touch me the way he touched me,
The lies bled into my skin,
And everytime he held me,
I wished you'de loved me then.

Don't try to fill the empty space,
That he chose to leave behind,
Just hold me like I'm beautiful,
And assure me I'll be fine.

Don't ask me to forget him,
He lives within my soul,
And deep inside his eyes,
Is all the pain you'll never know.

Don't leave me like he left me,
Just stay with me tonight,
Kiss me now, so soft and sweet,
And make this love alright.

Well written,
Oft times similarities
shadow the new and build on fears.
It's the fear of repeated sorrow.
There are times we must put aside the past
to enjoy the possiblities of the future.

Ahhh....like this one very much.
I'm sure one day you'll find one who will fade away all the sad memories from your head. Thank you for sharing.

Amber~
New love ... brings new memories ~
It doesn't re-write the old ones ...
but etches it's own sweet pages.

'deep inside his eyes,
Is all the pain you'll never know.'


Atta girl ... leave the pain behind.
Join in the spirit of sharing only newness with another.
Love ya'
