Okay, I promise, someday I'll get past confused love poetry. I hope. As for now... I seem to be a confused love poetry machine. *smile* Okay, then.

Maybe if I refuse to think
I can let you go
Maybe my heart will cease to beat
My mind to ever know
Maybe if I can live so much
Memory can't define
Maybe I can live my life
And you won't haunt my mind

Tonight I didn't cry when you
Told me how you felt
Tonight my voice didn't shake
But my heart didn't melt
Tonight you walked into the room
I pretended not to care
Tonight we forever lost the life
We never even shared

Everything I didn't want
Is everything I have
Everything was right but somehow
We're on different paths
Everything I ever felt
Seems to have disappeared
Everything I want right now
Is everything I fear

I don't know why I don't cry
Or why this doesn't hurt
I don't know why I'm still breathing
Since I said those words
I don't know why I'm still waiting
You've said goodbye and gone
I don't know why I'm still hoping
You'll someday prove me wrong

My life is here without you there
Yet I must leave to stay
And if my heart could read my mind
The night would taint the day
I can't feel another's touch
I'm numb to all but you
So I'll live my life alone
Until you love me, too

I don't think you're too confused. I mean love hurts right? Well I really enjoyed this poem, believe me I know how you feel. This was my favorite part..

"My life is here without you there
Yet I must leave to stay
And if my heart could read my mind
The night would taint the day
I can't feel another's touch
I'm numb to all but you
So I'll live my life alone
Until you love me, too"

that one piece makes more sense to me than I'm sure anyone will ever know. Love Stinks
