Yes, folks, ANOTHER one about my ex... I wrote these all a while ago-- this is simply the next one of all I didn't post before...
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~~*~*~

There’s so much I want to say
That I can only hide…
So many secrets I would reveal
If you were by my side.

But I will simply write them here,
Keep them under lock and key,
Never to unveil them-
Not for anybody.

First I want to know why…
Why’d you go away?
Were you being honest
That dark and lonely day?

If you were honest with me,
That means you still care.
You just missed your friends
And so to let me go you dared.

I’ve been missing you
For what seems so very long.
No matter how hard I try,
I sometimes fail to be strong.

I know it could have worked.
You didn’t want to try.
You didn’t see a solution…
So I bowed my head to cry.

“I guess the idea of having a girlfriend
was better than actually having one.”
These words echo through my mind
And burn like the flames of the sun.

I want it to be all over now,
I just want to move on!
The darkness needs to end
And give birth to the dawn.

I want to stop being your ex
And start being your friend.
But before we’ll be able to talk
The awkwardness must first end.

So now I say goodbye
To the boy I cared for so.
I’m turning around now,
And away I will go.

When a long time has passed,
I will turn back around,
And walk back to you:
A friend to be found.

Well done....Enjoyed it a lot. Hope things improve!

I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

I'm in love with my shadow
I admire it daily

I think everyone's been there.
Nice poem.. you portrayed your emotions very well. I enjoyed this a lot, and I hope the situation improves.

Keep writing.

Sara, this is another lovely poem
I don't understand why you don't like them
Written down emotions are always beautiful in my book
keep sharing and I'll surely be reading

So long lives this, and this give life to thee." W.S.

I agree with acire, you express yourself beautifully and use your emotions so well in your writing. this is definetely a piece that a lot of people can relate to, you did an excellent job on this. keep posting your work.

Sometimes, the things that go unsaid are the only things worth hearing.
