I know, I know! Haven't posted in a while and I'm probably a stranger again! Just letting you all know I haven't dissapeared or forgotten you, I've just been entirely too busy. Anyway, here's one I just wrote about my recent break-up (go figure)! I just needed to write this to let it go. Hope you all don't mind a little anger and frustration! --Jamie I saw you before I saw you sleeping Dreaming of the times When you took me for granted I saw you before I saw you shiver Perspiring heavily Scared that you'd lost me I saw you before I saw you drink Shouting to your friends Words you thought I'd never hear I saw you before I saw you laugh Snickering at the truth You thought you'd kept from me I saw you before I saw you slip Looking for another lie So that you could keep us together I saw you after I saw your ignorance Knowing you had lost me forever And thinking that you'd feel okay I saw you after I saw your grief And you know what pal? You deserve every minute of it Lessons are learned in the game of love Through trial and regret So that someday all of us will see Our Soulmate when we've met by, Jamie Hartman 2000 --There...positive ending! "You make it hard to breathe It's as if I'm suffocating And when you're next to me I can feel you're heart beat through my skin It makes me sad to think this could all be for nothing I wish there was a way A way for you to see inside me I've never felt this way About anyone or anything Tell me What do I have to do? To make you happy What do I have to do? To make you understand What do I have to do? To make you want me But if I can't make you want me, What do I have to do?" 'What do I have to do?'by Stabbing Westward |

Now for me some words come easy But I know that they don't mean that much Compared with the things that are said when lovers touch You never knew what I loved in you I don't know what you loved in me Maybe the picture of somebody you were hoping I might be jackson browne |
