Hello everyone. This is my first post so, be gentle... Letting Go I like your warm smile; I crave your fond touch, And I love the way You hate me so much. The way your eyes sparkle; Your sweet, sultry lips Your harsh bitter words that Sting me like hits The way your arms hold me; How you tell me those lies Hollow words of "forever" Tears flow from my eyes. You brought me the pain, The sadness and grief I'd like to forget but My skin its beneath I know I should leave But I won't get far My body's been bound, My heart ripped and marred. Your grip over me, Is like one of death. 'Cause you won't let go Until my last breath. Is there no way out? My mind tells me no! Bye bittersweet love, This is me letting go. ~* Megs *~ I was never one to patiently pick up broken fragments and glue them together again and tell myself that the mended whole was as good as new. What is broken is broken- and I'd rather remember it as it was at its best than mend it and see the broken places as long as I lived. -- Margaret Mitchell |

The saddest summary of a life contains three descriptions: could have, might have, and should have. --Louis Boone |

Welcome to Passions. And very nice first post. I have been there and I know that letting go isnt easy. But once you get the nerve, life only gets better. As the saying goes, "Been there, done that and got the t-shirt!" Welcome Dark_kisses_Within I do not love you for being perfect..... I love you for being perfect for me!! |

Well walking away is the hardest part, but the rewards are worth the pain that it reaps. There's a peace inside us all Let it be your friend It will help you carry on In the end There's a peace inside us all -Creed |

Night Chica, I have broken many bones, in doing so I know they grow back stronger, Like the breaking of one’s heart, (mine) it has grown, I believe the key is flexibility If you remain ridged in the head wind the oak tree breaks, when the willow flows with the storm. Remain flexible kid, and grow. Joel. |

Night Chica~ Welcome! Oh..... I have to say excellent poem!! I felt this way with my ex-husband. Letting go was the best thing I ever did. ( he was ABUSIVE) The opening lines felt like they came from my heart. Love it! - SEA |

Welcome Night Chica, what a lovely first piece, and there is no need to be gentle, you've done fine. A little secret, we are not harsh critics. A heart and soul are not judged by how much you love, but by how much you are loved by others... ~Isis~ (Goddess - Sovereign of the Spirit) |

bittersweet love is better than no love at all, and you said it well... Kathleen |
