Lumpy Oatmeal makes me Crazy!

You don't know what you did to me
All those words you said to me
Were they just lines
Were they just lies
You don't know what you put me through
Now I just write and shedding tears over you
I just seem to cry
When I come to see if you are here.
All the emptiness spills over me
I don't know what to think or see
I am blind by the love that we share.
You better not have walked away from me
That is a part of you that I just can not see
You promised me.
You promised me!
And here I am still believing in you.
Missing you.
In pain over you.
Please, don't go.

Love is such a touchy thing sometime, often misguided, often mispercieved, and the entreaties of love so earnest because the personal stakes seem so high.  You have captured well the anguish,the ambivalence, the urgency of need and want.  I am happy as you indicate by your post script, that such grear emotions and appeals don't always fall on deaf and insensitive ears!
  Good Write!

Every Day's a Blessing

Often, the greater the hardship, the greater the reward.  This struck me as a 10 on the Rickter.  Be well.

heartfelt...my ex promised me so much yet he couldn't keep his promises of not hurting me...I've spent many nights searching for comfort...

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