if I close my eyes,
I can see your smile.
You say I need to forget,
but that will take a while.
if I listen hard I hear,
every word you told me.
I don't know if you ment it,
I just want it to be.
if I open my heart,
I could love again.
But that's up to you,
up to you my friend.
If I try to get you back,
I will be happy with myself,
not sad or angry,
like I've always felt.
If i just open my heart,
and let words come inside,
I can take off the mask,
and no longer have to hide.
If i tried just a little harder,
if I listened just a little more,
if my thoughts actually mattered,
I don't think I would be torn.
If I tried to see things differently,
if you cared to help me through,
then I wouldn't need anything but you.

Hmmmmmmm.  I was singing this while I wrote this, I think I sent the world's longest e mail last night, just want to know what you think about it. Also, it's for Justin, of course.

I can't see at all. Even if I could it would all be gray, put your picture on my wall, it reminds me that it's not so bad, it's not so bad.

This is very expresive of your feelings and thaughts.  To open your heart seems like such a risk.  But with the love and support of your man it would be so easy and the benifits would be so great.  I liked it

It's kinda funny seeing lake talk to you cuz your icons are completely the opposite. He's like little mr. angel boy and you're devil woman. OOOOOOOOOOOooooooooo I hear opposites attract!! hehe...Love connection Love connection! Ring a ding ding ding!
Ok no.....im lame.

Anyway this was a great poem as usual. Keep posting!
