How can you think i'm selfish?
I'm always there for you.
I listen to your cries,
Your complaints and fantasy's of her and you.
I'm tired of trying to stay strong,
Then collapsing to the ground.
I cant think,
Concentrate,
Love anymore.
My world is spinning around.
All because my love had to be dedicated to you.
It makes it so difficult,
But what am i to do?
But what i dont understand is,
If you dont love me,
Then why wont u let me go?
I asked you for some time apart,
But you stubbornly said no.
I need to figure out whats going on with me,
Get my feelings straight.
Try to get over you because this hurt is turning into rage.
Just 3 little days i wanted apart,
Nothing more,
Nothing less,
And you say i'm the one overflowing in selfishness?
So if you love me,
I ask you to tell me now!
I've lasted this long and i dont know how.
Everyone reaches their breaking point,
And my time to break has come.
So clue me in on how your feeling,
Its really important i know,
Tell me right and tell me true,
Or else im forced to go.

Time apart can be hard but for the better...If you want time away from someone just do it...I mean I wouldnt ask for permission from someone to be away from them...You should follow your heart and your head...It will take you where you want to go...And it will give you all of the answers you are looking for...Thanks for sharing this one...

I just read your "just friends" poem, and this just spoiled the whole thing.  I think you should tell him that he is the one who is being selfish...If you need some time off you shouldn't even ask him for permission.  you should tell him...keep ya head up ....D*mn, i feel so bad now

Never let someone else, even if it is the person you love, decide how youre going to run something in your life.
im talking out of experience, most will just try to get you to stick around, in case something goes wrong.

It's to bad that such a great poem has such a sad topic.

great poem, you're in quite a predicament.
you're right in standing up for yourself. He has no right to go falling in love with others and not letting you do the same.
