I sit knee deep within
My mind
Day dreaming
Of another time
When you held me so close
Within your arms
When you spoke of love
Promising my heart would never come near harm
Years have passed
We've parted ways
Now you're back
I no longer know what to say
Or how to express
The disappointment
Lingering within my being
I thought you loved me
You swore up and down you did
Please don't tell me
You were only spellbound by a whim
Didn't you know
It was against the rules
To lead me to and fro
I'm sorry sweetheart
I'm not a ping pong ball
Can't you tell
I deserve so much more
So please promise me
Only say what you mean
We both know I get hurt easily
If you truly didn't love me
Then why did you throw the word around carelessly
I believed you more than anything
You even tried to convice me
That we were soulmates
But look at us now
I want to get close to you
But I'm too afraid
That you'd only reject me...


If at first you don't succeed destroy all the evidence that you tried.

Ceinwyn...I know exactly what you're going through.  I just recently found my junior high sweet heart.  We were so close then..and one day he just moved really far away, i didnt hear from him for about 8yrs. and now all of a sudden he is back in my life. I never stopped loving him, but this time it has to be different..he is in love with someone else, but that doesnt stop him from expressing and acting upon his emotions. Just need you to know that you are not alone on this..just let time take its course..what's meant for you, yours will be.
