I said I didn’t love you And I believed it was true Then you spoke to me again And it all came back anew You just came to say goodbye And it grew more and more We talked more this night Than we ever have before You just weren’t worth loving That’s what everyone would say And I finally believed them Until this fateful day I worked so hard to forget The way that I loved you But you can’t forget something That’s so real and true But the love is different now All I want to see Is someone being good to you Although it isn’t me My love isn’t selfish Nor is it unkind It’s controlled from my heart Instead from my mind And now you are leaving To go back to your home You’re leaving so soon Leaving me... alone That night, I felt something That I didn’t want to feel I didn’t want to believe Despite it all... I love you still "We are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars." -Oscar Wilde |

This is really sweet, a love that goes way past generosity and goes to unselfishness complete. *vote*!!! Love and hugs, Lizzie  "Poetry is the true expression of my soul, it is my ultimate means of communication. It is my rainbow of delight." |

LoveBug, I recently read another of your poems and loved it!! You write well!! This one I enjoyed too!! Don't know how I missed it!! Bridgette "Creation of woman from the rib of Man: She was not made from his head to top him; nor out of his feet to be trampled upon by him; but out of his side to be equal with him, under his arm to be protected, and near his heart to be loved." -Unknown |

Ahh... great poem LoveBug! Loving someone enough to let them go out and on without you is hard thing... enjoyed the poem Abrahm Simons "Keep on dreamin' boy 'cause when you stop dreaming it's time to die" - Blind Melon |
