Dang girl, looks like you've done it again
I tried to move on but you laid my heart wide open
You left long ago and took your love with you
And each moment since I have continued to miss you
I've tried to stay friends and still keep my distance
But your smile and charm break down my resistance
All I do is see you and I begin to reminisce
On our time together and every single kiss
I've hidden my feelings to my very own eyes
I've cast it away somewhere deep down inside
It's not your fault that these feelings resurface
You wouldn't do anything to hurt me on purpose

I have put you on such a pedestal
I feel so low and like such a fool
I should leave and try to fix my life
But this problem is like a double-edge knife
On either side I'm gonna get cut
I leave, things get better, but
I don't know if I could do without
Your friendship, it's what it's all about
I don't know if it's too important or if I'm just scared to lose it
But I know it's essential in my life and I'd never abuse it
But it's killing me, and I just can't see what to do
I don't know, but are all these problems because of you
I'm ashamed, I'm afraid, I'm confused, I'm hurtin'
But I'm too afraid to change so I'll remain uncertain

This is a really powerful piece. You portray your emotions very well. Love can make us very uncertian, can't it?

PS- You probably noticed that I edited this for profanity. This is a family website with members as young as 9 and readers that are even younger, so we like to keep it clean. You are a very talented writer, and you don't need profanity in this piece to make it great. Thanks for posting.

This is written very well in my opinion.  I love the ending of it!  I don't know what else to say, this is just a really good poem!

It is always hard moving on when you are still great friends with an ex lover, there are harder things in life though, like looking at your child and all you see is them...  but you have expressed the situation well...  good luck for the future!!

I think this is the first time I've read a poem of yours, and I'll tell you this..."i'm very impressed"  I'm glad I decided to read it, it would have been my loss if I didn't.  Beautifully written.....keep sharing

Uh... I'm not sure what to say. I know this is gonna sound stupid, but that's just made me realise how my guy feels about me. I was kinda in the dark, but you described it perfectly. Wow. Really powerful. Took my breath away... And I'm being serious!! Keep writing!

This was great. I liked it a lot. You've enlightened people and made their jaws drop in awe. Good piece.
