Im still lost in my mind,
and your all that i see.
But i was never of your kind,
and we could never really be.

You control my mind, keep me still,
but still deep down i know,
we'll never be, no matter my will,
and i've got to let it go.

You'll always be to good for me,
at least thats what your friends say.
So i'll never set this thing free,
and it wont stay caged another day.

But here you are, deep in my blood,
and still in my mind i know,
though these emotions are a flood,
that i've got to let it go.

Evil, real evil, is the
taking of a human life.
Whether a  man would be
dying, even eventually...
it doesn’t matter. If God
does exist... this l

its sad knowing that the best thing for a pair to do is move apart and let the friendship/relationship just slide. letting go is hard...and you summed up your emotions upon the matter really well. thanks for sharing this.

Forever,

I'm struggling with these very same issues tonight. I'm thinking it might be easier for a friend of mine if I just let the friendship and him go, but not sure if that is what is best for both of us.

It's hard knowing and realizing that the best thing for a relationship or friendship is to let it go.But after awhile the pain will go away and you will realize you did the right thing.

Sometimes being able to let go is the act that shows your true feelings for the person... as confusing as that may be.  It's a tough situation, and it sounds like you're making the right decisions.  Most people wouldn't be that mature about it.

I really enjoyed this, it was well written, flowed nicely, and the rhyme scheme was well done.  Job well done!

Sometimes its just better to let go then to stay with someone and get hurt in the long run. Me & my now ex boyfriend just broke up after 2 years and i never realized what it would be like without him. But i am having the time of my life the way it should have been even while i was with him.

Im still lost in my mind,
and your all that i see.

i feel the same way!!

Good luck with what it is that you decided to do about this. And keep up the good work!!!

I thought that this was really sad...It sounds like your in a situation that really sucks, and I wish you the best in resolving it.  Anyways, although I'm a firm believer of "never give up" sometimes letting things go and moving in makes life so much easier.  Good luck!!

The things we have to walk away from always hurt the most. I hope you'll be ok.  

Nice expression and well written.

Thanks for sharing this.
