Sometimes, things are better left unsaid.
Some things,better left untouched.
It's better to walk away sometimes,
then the pain wouldn't hurt so much.
Sometimes love is not meant to be,
when it puts your future on hold.
The warmth that clothed you yesterday,
today will leave you feeling cold.
It is better to love then to have lost,
is a saying as old as time.
It was a rude awaking, for me to learn
a moments pleasure,is all I would find.
It would've been better if I'd never been
touched, and all of my words left unsaid.
Then I wouldn't have,the memories I do,
and the future I dreamed of, left dead.
If I could do it all over again,
there's no doubt in my mind that I would.
Quite often I wonder how he really feels,
Would he go back if he could?
I know sometimes we have to let go,
absorb our hurts, and carry the pain.
Sometimes we are totally consumed by the past,
our hearts marked, forever by loves stain.

If you can't make it so,
you need to let it go!

This part is very very good!

It would've been better if I'd never been
touched, and all of my words left unsaid.
Then I wouldn't have,the memories I do,
and the future I dreamed of, left dead.

Yep, right about the stain...

I've had my share of those...and THIS is an exceptional bit of feeling!!!

Open arms can be the most fragile in the world...

Kitty, I know just how this feels. I have wished this same thing many, many times.
