(i wasnt going to submit this, but i am, so this is for mia)

you were my life
i lived for you
i gave myself to you
to do with as you pleased
but you wanted more
and i have nothing else to give
i give, you take
but you know i will always give more
so lets stop this game
because i dont want to play
nobody wins
and now i try to get on with life
life without you
what was once unimaginable
is now the reality i face
for you were once my life
and now we may never meet again
i know thoughts of you will always pass in my mind
as we grow apart
you are still with me
as i know you will always be
maybe thats love's greatest testament
for you may lose love
but true love never goes away

I don't know what to say. It was beautiful. Maybe I will sound full of myself but was this written for me? If so, I really don't understand it. So I'm guessing that it was for a beautiful princess by the name of Mia (that is why I chose the name, because of all those dreamy storytales...)that once broke your heart. The poem was nicely written.

keep posting...

hey... i've felt THIS way before.. that's for sure... you have a very honest, open style, which I admire. (that is, unless you made this whole thing up, which is your perogative as a writer... hehehe). Seriously, pretty darned straight forward! I'm impressed with that.

Well...don't I feel smart..hahaha! It was a beautiful poem. I haven't posted in so long... I feel like poetry has left me... So I guess I'm not all that peachy right now... But don't stop posting... Eventually I will come back, and when I do...I'm expecting a whole lot of verses to sooth my sad soul...

Sorry for the misunderstanding, I really feel stupid. Anyways... before I put my foot in my mouth again...

Poignant. Your sincerity is captivating.
