Well... this has nothing to do with allysa's work... maybe it's inspired by it.  

You say you'll call,
I'm half thrilled.
What can I say? Sometimes I miss you...
Foolishly missing you.

I remember the rough times...
The times you pushed me over the edge.
But sometimes I need your hand to hold.
I can't want this; I swear I don't need you.

If you end up calling me...
What will I tell you? Will it be jibberish?
Will I succumb?
When it really matters... can I just say no?

Why do you always mess with my head?
You always seem to tear apart my will to survive..
Crushing my spirit, and twisting my words.
If you call me, will I stay strong; even if it's for you I do yearn?

* okay... he's not that horrible... but I just am so wierd when it comes to him... I miss some of the good times... but I can never forget the bad.

Well girl I dont know what to say...I mean if this guy is really worth it then he wouldnt do this to you...Sounds like you care about him though...And thats not bad...You really know how to express yourself...Just tell him how it goes with you...

P.S.~~~You said "I miss some of the good times... but I can never forget the bad."

Its good to miss all that stuff...But there is so much that will make you remember all that bad things that happen between the two of you...I mean I remember all the good times I had with an ex (if thats what you want to call him)...But I will never forget all the pain that I felt either...

Keep up the good work!!!

Erin- Thank you for your kind words. There is a lot of background with this guy. Good, bad, indifferent... the like. Yea, well he's far away from me now... but he still keeps casual contact... so I have time to forget the bad stuff, and begin to miss him. Esp. when he talks about other women. I have a major jealous streak. He used to find that funny.
thanks again...
Jenn

Wow, Acire, talk about retrieving something from the grave?  
Thanks for replying though, and I do see good with bad.... I've realized a lot of stuff concerning this guy, and no longer want to be with him. When the bad begins the completely outwiegh the good...you have a problem.
Thanks Child, but he was never a beautiful rainbow!    
Love ya all! (ps. check out my signature.. it reminds me of this guy, if that tells you anything!!)

Well this is a good poem   I'm glad you realized what you really feel about this guy.  I think the poem expressed a feeling many people have.  Nice work.

I enjoyed this poem. The only problem is that if you still have feelings for the person, you tend to cling to the good memories, making these things that much harder, anyways it is a great poem

Wow this was GREAT
I could seriously relate 99% to your feelings in that poem... I felt like you took the words right out of my mind! Great job
