Why? I could ask myself this in regards to my life, and never stop writing. *sigh* You came to me when I was a little more nieve and I wouldn't say you took advantage no you just took me. Something i will always thank you for and never forgive you for at the same time. I have wandered wondered at my life and what you put into it that I didn't have. Passion fairytale ideas that I had given up on your will your pure sensual core your peace and too much more to go on about, really. You made me patient and later impatient. But after a while of waiting all that was left was the impatience that always goaded my heart. I love you and you will always be that soulmate that I can never have. We have both played our negative and positive parts in this story. So why are we trying to blame each other instead of trying like we always could to find common ground? I love you but due to reasons that break both our hearts you withhold yourself and therefore I must let you go sadly considering you a friend and another lesson learned. I am sad but also glad of heart because I know we will be fine. There will be no end to this goodbye. |

Hi, I found this heartbreakingly sad, you almost seem caught between a rock and a hard place. I would think this was first love,but I am not sure. The way your words say everything yet say nothing as if you were afraid to let this go and move on.In your heart it seems that you do not want this to end, maybe you both don't but it can never work all this leads to a very heartbreakingly sad story, can't live together can't live apart, to much water under the bridge. I am so sorry that you can't cut the bonds that hold you both, for it will stop you from opening up to something else, you will always leave that door ajar!, I liked to poem it showed me that sometimes our hearts rule our heads and there is nothing we can do about it. jenny wren when in deep water become a diver |

"I love you but due to reasons that break both our hearts you withhold yourself and therefore I must let you go sadly considering you a friend and another lesson learned." Beautiful and heartbreaking. Peace to you. |

Jennifer- It has been far too long since these old and tired eyes have read your thoughts and your words... I can promise us both, with words like these being released into the world, I will not take that long break again. Phenomenal write that has left me heartbroken, and joyous at the resolute acceptance you have displayed. Life's journey is not to arrive at the grave safely in a well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, totally worn out, shouting, "WHAT A RIDE |
