Please

Teach me how to live out of his shadow
And breathe the air somebody else exhaled.
Teach my heart to beat without his presence,
Free my mind and teach me to forget.

Then hide the sun and keep it there 'till morning,
Light up the stars like candles in the sky.
Patch up my soul and glue my heart together
And make him love me back, please make him mine!

Don't wanna dance if he can't be
Everything that I dream up
A man that understands real love"

I have thought this many times about a certain woman...and she comes with lots of expectations and asking me to be very responsible...romance and reality are one...James

I can teach some of these things hon, but if he doens't want you - my advice - don't humiliate yourself by chasing him.  The secret reward for all this is to find another, find a man who does love you and want you.  If you need to chat, email me anytime... *hugs*

We can't make another love us (too bad!)....We can only decide to love another,or allow them to love us.          Good write!!  Thanx!!

I concur. I've asked for the same thing so many times only to be denied every single time. To try to make somebody love only serves to have them love you less.

Good piece.

Thanks so much guys for all you replies, they are all so very true and kind.
However, the situation is so much more complicated than you think or can imagine...
I am not chasing him, I would never have the guts to do that. All I'm doing is admniring him from afar and hoping and praying quietly that someday some kind of magic will happenand I will either fall for someone else who will love me back or he will love me himself. But that part is just a silly dream...
Thank you very much again for reading and replying so warmly.
Isis: thank you for your offer  
Take Care!
