I love him But why do I run? Afraid of the pain That still lingers from the last. He wonders why What can I say? I'll start to cry. I hate being hurt so easily I promise myself I won't give my heart away And right when I'm so strong Proud to say I'm not in love I realize that my heart has long since gone Perhaps it was never meant to be The pain, the hurt The apathy In the end I'm alone The next one shall come along And say he'll never hurt me And the moon will reflect in his starry eyes I'd rather have loved and lost Then never loved at all Then again what is love? Pain, jealousy, pleasure and joy? I feel the tears and anger most of all ------------------ "They sing the stories of the present, of people trapped in a shadow world" ~Charlotte Seley~ |

I really liked this one, good job! I think it reflects the way many people feel, myself included. ------------------ Shannon D. Montgomery ("Krystal") |

This poem reflects feelings we all have shared, I'm sure. I especially like the way the following lines are written since there is a rhythm in the words. "And right when I'm so strong Proud to say I'm not in love I realize that my heart has long since gone Perhaps it was never meant to be The pain, the hurt The apathy" Thanks for sharing. |

My sentiments exactly! Love and pain remain the same. ------------------ Patience is a virtue, but virtue has never been one of my redeeming qualities.Read my post, "Nameless", please. [This message has been edited by DreamEvil (edited 06-27-99).] |

Man, do I understand this one. And I for one, also believe with love comes pain, and usually a lot of it. Excellent job, Raven. ![]() ------------------ *Krista Knutson* |
