Probably not my best, but thats okay...

any comments appreciated. Good or Bad.

The way you
held me close,
told me how you felt,
the way you
looked into my eyes,
made me want to melt.

I miss the way
things used to be,
the way you always cared.
I knew that we
were meant to be,
but i was just as scared.

I miss you so much,
but your too blind to see.
I loved you
with all my heart,
i knew that we
were meant to be.

So, if i decide to tell you,
exactcly how i feel.
I want you to know,
that waht i feel is real.


So, as i lay me down to sleep,
i pray the lord my heart to keep.
If somehow it decides to break,
I pray the pain for you to take.

OMG Kissa!! Hunny this was such an amazing and beautiful write. I loved the way you expressed this situation because I definitely can realate to it because its what im going through with the girl that i absolutely love to death but just doesnt love me back. It's tough and heartbreaking thats for sure but if you ever need someone to talk to or need a shoulder to lean on ill always welcome you with these open arms of mine.

Lots of Love Always,
Chris

Thanks Chris. I love one of my "used to be" close guy freinds, and i thought he did too, and so did everyone else. They would always say that we would make a cute couple, and then one weekend, everything changed. He changed. It just really hurts right now, because i know nothing will ever be the same. Everytime i think of him, i cry. I really hate myself for it too. For letting myself get that attatched. He is moving over this weekend, to the other side of town, and i am going to miss him soooo much. Today on the bus i started to cry, as we got off the bus. I didnt let him see though.

Anyways, thanks for the comments. It helps. A lot.

I absolutly loved the last stanza.  Well I'm with you two lol I was with my bf for a while(and he did love me back) but now he's just acting like we were never together and has changed and I cry alot over him too.  I know how you all feel, I'm sorry you're going through this, I know how you feel. Awesome write by the way.

Love is giving him the ability to break your heart...but trusting him enough to know he won't.
