In an upside-down garden

You waited until we broke up to hold my hand.
To put your hand in my back pocket.
To give me a hug before you left each day.
To call me without something to talk about.
You waited until we broke up to love me truly.
To hug me closer without touching me.
To hold my memory in your heart.
To let my problems be your own.

I want to walk down the street with you.
To let you know what I have to say.
To let you see what your blind to.
To show you what you refuse to see.

Part `1

Someone once taught me that it doesn't matter what other people think of you as long as you like yourself.  That's what I live by.

That was very sad, but also very good. I hope all will truly be well.

Grr- Don't you just hate guys like that?
The situation sucks- I know.
Great write, allysa.  

You wouldn't worry about what people thought about you if you knew how seldom they did.

Awesome write... I LOVED these lines:
"To hug me closer without touching me.
To hold my memory in your heart.
To let my problems be your own."

Especiall the "hug me closer without touching me."  Awesome work.  I really enjoyed this... and *sigh* the situation indeed does suck.  Guys can be so confusing.  Hang in there, kiddo  
Thanks for sharing this one.. well done!

Men are good! C'mon gals!  

Anyway, hope things do get better for you little sprout.  

I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.
