Why do you have to do this? And why do you have to say These things that really hurt me? Surely it’s not just your way When everything is quiet I turn around and you’re there You can’t really be so bad That you like to see me scared. You have taken me back years To a time I’d rather not relive, A time when someone hurt me, A hurt I cannot forgive. The memory was fading And the hurt becoming dim, Until you said and did things That reminded me of him. Like you, he used to visit Even though I didn’t ask And now he is in my thoughts Instead of back in the past. Maybe you don’t realise Just what it is you do, I’ve put my fears on paper In the hope you’ll see it too. Sometimes I feel I’m being followed Because you are always there, Even when I’m on my own then suddenly you appear. And some of the jokes you make Don’t give me too much credit, make me wonder what you meant And why you really said it. Please don’t say things to upset me That aren’t funny in the end I didn’t ask for this attention I just wanted to be your friend. This may be a repost. Not sure, couldn't find it in a search. |

OH wow, Dee... this has some very strong emotions in it. I'm so sorry that you have to relive this... but maybe that will help you get over it once and for all? Who knows... maybe things will turn out for the best *hugs* Take care.. --Marie I wish your fingers could touch all I can't say... no one should ever feel this alone. |

i hope you are ok. iF you are really going through this, then I feel your pain. I use to feel this way in the past and wrote few poems on it. Ronil (A mask for everyday. Imagine a life without them.) |

Frightening and yet an incredible piece. There is no doubt to what you are trying to say here, and I hope this 'friend' sees it and realizes that what is/has happened is making you frightened. Quod me nutrit me destruit. |

This was an awesome poem Dee...i hate how life ironically ends up churning up feelings from the past that you spent so much time burying. Express to this person how you feel..make them understand otherwise let them go...u deserve to be happy not to be burdened BoOsH bOoSh nApoLE |

I can definately relate to this. Thankyou for making me feel that I am not alone in my struggles. Nice writing. "What makes letting go hard isn't losing what you had, but losing the dream of what could have been." |
