Why did it have to end this way why do we hate each other after years of joy years of crying a little pain but always a comfort to hold you talk to you now I wonder do YOU ever think about the good times do you ever cry when you remember something fond or a time when you needed me I wonder Was it all a front did you ever love me or was I reason for you to leave the unbearable grasp at home a way to be free did you always hold the hatred in your heart that comes out now when you see me hear me think of me did you fight the urge all those years to leave run and never look back it seems the truth never touches your lips so to answer me would only further confuse my tortured mind never answering the question if you ever really loved me the only thing that comes to mind now that we are at the end looking back at all the wasted years is... Why? Nothing ever happens unless first a Dream - Rod |

Many things will come to mind...if they all came at once no one could handle it...James |

Someday you'll be able to look back and see that those years weren't wasted.... |

Sometimes you never have that question answered. Sometimes, it is best not to answer it. Such a small word - such a small word with such a big meaning. |

Thank you all for you kind remarks. This relationship is over...I have gone on and found a great woman that makes my life truly complete. I just had a problem with a lot of issues that happened towards the end and try to rationalize sometimes. But the whole thing is one mistruth on top of another. Lies and deception seems to be the only thing that grew over the years...not love...hey I feel another poem coming on...lol...thanks y'all...Rod Nothing ever happens unless first a Dream - Rod |

I have questioned many times the very same thing that you've written here. It's good that life goes on, isn't it? |

Rod, this is a very good write. I can understand the need to rationalize the happenings of a past relationship. I also have a wonderful Love in my life now. He and I love each other with all our hearts, but the hurtful memories from the past still come to mind. I do know, though, that time helps them to come around less frequently. That's a good thing, huh? ![]() Hugs, Ethel |

I have that same question, "Why?" But I am sure he (my ex-husband) would not answer this question for he killed me with silence. Now, I have arisen again, and so will you! Believe it or not, this too shall pass. Keep telling yourself that, and definitely keep on writing. I often find in my writing, revelations come upon me...revelations that may have not if I had not been pondering my next line. -Patricia |
