Games (11/21, JDC) I think the game we are playing has become too dangerous for me I am not sure what I had intended but never something to this degree I don’t know when I started to love you, maybe all those years ago But then wasn’t the time to let it grow I’m not sure now is the right, but I have lost control I no longer want to pretend that what we have is enough I want all of you, and I am terrified of your rebuff I wish I could go back in time and recapture what you say used to be I wish I could make you still love me I know in my heart you don’t share what I feel It’s all too fast and seems so surreal I can’t explain what it is you have done to me I can’t make sense of something I never thought I would be I can’t take back what has become the better part of me I wish I could see into your mind Then maybe I could know if what you say is true I want so badly to believe in you For some reason I am so scared and confused Terrified to accept and then be refused I have known you forever and not at all I touch you, and feel incredibly small I have loved you all of the yesterdays, and every minute of today I can’t just walk away I can’t explain what it is you have done to me I can’t make sense of something I never thought I would be I can’t take back what has become the better part of me |

Susan, I don't know if this is from your own experience or not, but if it is, it's very sad. The uncertainty of another person's love for you can be very hard.  . . Ethel....garysgirl  [This message has been edited by garysgirl (02-01-2003 02:46 PM).] |

If it has become the better part of you, dont take it back, claim it and keep it forever! Great job on this poem, much enjoyed! It's not the load that breaks you down, it's the way you carry it. ~ Lena Horne |
