It wasn't my intention, not ever, to hurt you
my heart only longed to treasure and nurture you
to give you my heart without over stepping
the bounds that you set, no matter how tempting
Never my intention to push you away
nor make you feel that you've been betrayed
I long for a moment to tell you, explain
how your absence has left me alone in the rain
I cannot describe the pain of your leaving
the extent of my suffering or of my grieving
there are nights that I dream that you are here
only to wake up alone soaked in tears
no night has ended without memories of  you
your mind was my refuge, your heart was that too
& now I have nothing, you've taken away
the one that brought happiness to me everyday,

YOU...

I love you so much, I cannot recover
nor fill up this space with the love of another
I've tried to get over you, even now I still try
your reasons, unclear, & I still wonder why?
you know the truth is in fragments at best
gray areas abound in this spider's nest
I simply can't stop my heart from beseeching
your heart, nor my arms for your body, reaching
I've tried to reopen the lines of communication
to save our "true love"? from eternal damnation
I know you can never trust me again
nor even allow me to be just your friend
tho you've hurt me too, I'll still always care
& if you want me back, in a flash I'll be there

I love you...

oh this just aches...and is written with such sincere passion to express the emotions.....
I felt the words... I hope you can heal in them.
take care

I'm not right ... you're not wrong ...
Still I dont know ... what this love of ours is built upon.

It hurts to read this one.  The pain just emulates from each line.  Sometimes, these things happen for the best.  You may not see it now, but with time and healing you will know the path to take.  Best of luck to you.  Powerful write.

All writing comes
by the grace of God.
-Ralph Waldo Emerson
