crying
simple little tears,
flowing down my face.
maybe we can work this out
you say
maybe we can work this out.
silence
like a hand around my throat
it holds me.
maybe we can work this out
you say
maybe we can work this out.
no
don't call, don't write
leave me alone.
maybe we can work this out
you say
maybe we can work this out.
never
we can never fix the past
we can't know what the future holds.
no
we can never make life ours
we can never work this out.
and still you say
maybe we can work this out
maybe we can work this out.

I don't even want to hear your voice in the backround of my mind.

Don't let your mind wander, it's much to small to be out by itself.

I sorta like the very last line. It creates a certain impact.

Whether things should be worked out depends on how much you care about that person and the relationship. But sometimes when you're hurt beyond hope, and there is no longer any trust, it's rather useless to work things out. I hope you'll get over this phase soon.

granted, i don't know the whole situation but i know this full of A LOT of anger and pent-up frustration. it almost seems as if this isn't the first time this person has screwed up. in that case, i think it is time to say good-bye. but i believe that everyone deserves a second chance. if you haven't given him one i say that's an option. good write.

I agree with Missthang, but sometimes they don't deserve a second chance, stand your ground and don't be walked over!  Remember there is love in the world!!

Great peice!!!

This reminds me a lot of a song I know called "Letting Go".  I liked this... sometimes letting go is the hardest thing to do, but always feels awesome when you're finally over it.  

Good write, and good luck.

Thanks all.

Acire, it's over between me and Justin.
It's gone, i'm over it, but believe it or not, I don't think he quite is.  His girlfriend is best buds with a close friend of mine and she's been thinking about dumping him lately... I'm like his "safety" in all this.  Well, not anymore... I got to go find Cole...

Cole's best friend Mike came home w/ me and my buds for lunch today and he now knows that I like Cole so I believe he passed the message on.......

and Justin will be incredibly pissed to know that Mike was in my room, sitting on my bed, playing my guitar. (thats not as wrong as it sounds) But you know what? I don't care.
