The day you ended our love, A part of me died. But I can't help but think that, as you gave back that love, You were the one who cried. You said you didn't need me. Did you really mean it? But as time went on, I began to see That you didn't know what you wanted from life. Only that you didn't want me in it. Life goes on. I didn’t think it would. Life goes on. Even as by the bay alone I stood. You're gone. You've hurt me. I'll think about you from time to time. When I do, maybe I'll shed a tear. Not because I'll miss you, But because I'll feel sorry for you. Because our love was something wonderful to see, But you threw it away. Life goes on. Not with you. But with her. That which gives light must endure burning --Victor Frankl |

It does go on...sometimes you just wish it would go on a little faster and a little easier. Another good one, Sven. |

Sven. She took for granted what she had, while it hurts not to have someone appreciate your love at the end of the day it is her loss. I am sure that she wished that she had nurtured your love. You did the right thing and moved on. a sad poem, but as you said life goes on. enjoyed this one a lot. ------------------------ "I've been too honest with myself I should have lied like everybody else"-Richey Edwards "Take nothing but pictures. Leave nothing but footprints. Kill nothing but time". Baltimore Grotto "Libraries gave us power Then work came and made us free What price now for a shallow piece of dignity" Nicky Wire, A design for Life. manic street preachers "Rock 'n' roll is our epiphany Culture, alienation, boredom and despair" "To be nobody-but-yourself-in a world which is doing its best night and day, to make you everybody else - means to fight the hardest battle which any human being can fight; and never stop fighting." E.E Cummings. |
