If you love me like you say you do
Then whats with all these games?
I’ve been nothing but true to you
Yet now everything has changed
You want me to act out of character
Doing things I see as obscene
Like I wasn’t me, but the other her
Who I can’t be, even in dreams

Mighty are the shoes to fill
That you'd place me in
But it'd still be me playing a part
In that land of "Could've Been"
Can't you see you're killing me
And the love we might have had
If only myself you'd let me be
Then we both wouldn't be so sad

But perhaps we're just passing ships
Lonely, in the night time seas
Brought together for a life giving kiss
Never really meant to be
When my strength I've loaned to you
And our paths have started to part
Perhaps our lives will have been better
For just sharing a small bit of our hearts.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Didn't really know what to call it..and the endings not quite what I expected..hmm..

Your time is here.  Take one last look at it, then never come back.  This part of your life is already over...

I like this and the ending was fine.  Never change yourself for someone else.  Joyce

Great write. You expressed yourself well. I, also agree with Joyce. Be yourself.

I liked your poem and I think the title is very appropriate!

This poem reminds me so much of someone I know, who has practically given her life for someone who barely acknowledges her and takes her for granted... And that was a good ending for it! Thanks for sharing, BWA!

Thank you everyone

I've noticed something lately.. I'll start writing out a poem with the story fixed in my mind and the endings keep coming out all different then I planned O.o  

I guess it's not as bad of a thing as I thought

Always,
Angel
