Not Enough I have so few friends Most don't even know eachother They've never met Or they don't get along They live so far away from me Yet so close to home I try my hardest To see them all in awhile But some need more attention And others don't get it at all There isn't enough of me To go all around So no matter how much i care No matter how much i hurry I'm going to let someone down I've let so many down Disappointed and crushed That I can't help but feel down with them While I try to bring them around They warm back up to me And forgive and forget all the trouble But when I let down and disappoint the one I love, everything is double I can't be everywhere at once Nor at everytime But I try my hardest To make everyone feel loved I love all of my friends Even the ones that drive me insane But how do I apologize To the one so dear to me? I've let her down, just as the others She says don't worry about it I'm only awaiting her fury How can I make amends I've found the perfect gift Price doesn't matter for me As long as I have enough My plans for my long deserved vacation Have been thrown all askew I take one look at her face And I discover I'm doomed She tries to comfort me That everything is fine I can see right through the mask I know she is mad I have disappointed her again I feel crushed I start to think the love she felt is no more I could not help the time I arrived I came as fast as I could Like a bat out of hell But I was too late I know not what she feels I know not what she thinks But what I do know Is mine own mind I can remember After you left How I stood amongst strangers And cried out my fears I scream out to the crowd They look on in awe and wonder I ignore them all My only goal is a glass mirror I reached that goal In the back of our planned meeting place And take a look at myself And my sad, sad face I had never seen myself So totally crushed I came under control Though the tears wanted to flow My emotions barely concealed Always on the verge of crying out I didn't want them to know My friends were there to comfort some But they abandoned me soon Twas' not their fault They have other obligations to do I want to isolate myself Want to cry at my own disappointment in myself And wonder if my sweetheart was true But I stay anyway Without the people I planned And convince myself That she may truly have given one more chance So I look for hours It's six thirty now I hope she loves what I give her To show her my love My apology will be Christmas I hope her fire will be rekindled by then I didn't know what to say I didn't kow what I could do All I could say was "I'm sorry" I hope she knows me true But I have to wait and hope That again she will say Those magic words that mean so much to me Those three little words that I could never say enough to her - I love you Nathan Carter --I've tried to express most of my feelings, I hope they come over correctly-- |

Yea......."I love you".......three precious words that mean more than anybody could ever express...... Great poem!  I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust. I hate your socks. I'd like to burn them! |

Oh, this is really good, I think I get what you're saying, great job. Post some more poems for us, this one was really powerful! "Disagreements stimulate thought, thought stimulates action, and action stimulates life." --Lakewalker http://www.thehungersite.com |

I know what it's like to be jerked around by different "groups" of friends, so I can relate to that part of this poem. I hope everything works out for you and this person that you obviously care for. Keep up the good work! "Where there is great love there are always miracles" -Cather "Love heals everything, and love is all there is"- Zukav |
