~Not in Love with Me~ < !signature-->Amy M. Kennedy I guess the saying is true We want what we can't have I am so hopelessly in love with you About to lose it and go completely mad Your kind blue eyes stare right at me But is it me that you really see? I have told you how I felt only to be told you don't feel the same I laughed it off acting like I was joking, only to save face and my name But I really do love you, with all of my heart I wish you would just give this a chance, at least a start But you have your reasons, and I respect that However I can't change my heart, that is a fact There are times when I think this love is almost reachable Times when I think this love is almost obtainable Then I realize its never to be For the simple reason, you're not in love with me ~Live today as though it were your last but prepare for tomorrow as though it were here~ [This message has been edited by Aimster (edited 04-24-2000).] |

Amy* You have written from so deep...and not only do I feel what you wrote with but remember a trip down this road not so long ago.....but sweetie any man that can't see what an angel you are....well he's just plain not worth the time it takes to dry those tears!! I know if you are still hurting now my words won't mean a hoot but....someday soon you'll see **Angel Wing Hugs** Hold me for yesterday Kiss me for tomorrow But love me for today. |

Oh, Amy - unrequited love is so painful. But butterfly is right This is so touching and nicely done. You take care - sometimes we have to let go for our own sanity. hugs netswan |

I like it... And I identify with this one too... Dang it Time flies? Say it not so, time stays we go. |

Amy, My sympathies go out to you. For I know your pain all too well. Sure it is in the past but we always question ourselves and wonder if things had been different. But do not fret Amy angel. It does get easier over time. Great poem byu the way. All my love, Jeffrey |

Aimster, Wow....you really hit home here. Know exactly how you feel. Honestly though, he isn't worth it if all he causes is pain and heartache for you. You deserve someone who will love you back. Hang in there!! Excellent writing!! Friends are friend forever if the Lord's the Lord of them and a friend will not say never cause the welcome will not end. --Michael W. Smith |

amy-girl.. this is a very emotional piece here... I feel your ache and longing... be patient...time will tell...somethings take longer... loves ya my sweet talk to ya soon-promise jm Well the sun sets gently on your shoulders And it makes me want to touch you there. And the light in your eyes makes me feel Like there's something much better out there Something kind... And I know someday I might be looking around Trying to find some purpose Well purpose it can't be that hard to find As long as I've got the wind... The wind and your love to carry me. vertical horizon |

Amy, I so like this poem. And I believe it is true, people want what they can't have, but I also believe in happy endings. I agree with Janet, be patient. In the meantime, hang onto Jeff's poetic advice---Have a Blast! |

Amy, What a beautiful poem. I feel your pain I'm going through the same thing with my best friend of five years. But what you're doing is great you're emotional expressing yourself as am I and everone else. It's part of the healing process but maybe you might want to let your friend read your poem. After all if we could hide our feelings so well how come the people we love hide it just as well... or better than us? I feel for you but it'll work out in the end.
