One.

One year ago today,you loved me.

Nothing sweeter,
nothing more reassuring than
a surprise valentine at
my door.

One time there was
One and
another One and
now it's back to One again.

If I close my eyes,I can still
feel you,memorized
how you felt against me
The way the moonlight hit our bodies,
the way our breathing became a
secret song.

I miss you.

The radio sang to me today as
I drove past the bus stop
that took you away from me
One year ago.

It's okay.I'll be alright.
I shower now,the vapors and steam
Mixing with tears.
Slowly,slowly...
I'm fitting into myself.
Don't ask me to smile at your
Pictures.

One year ago and you took me,
  took me,
And I was yours,
And I was happy.

One year and I look at all
that has unravelled
A million eyes could want me
but a million eyes can keep looking
because I'm still lost.

One year ago and we were
One.
But that's done now,and
I can't be this naive schoolgirl
anymore.
Remember the first,
           second,
          third.

Standing under stars,sweet
Lips pressed to mine,
a second,
So happy together as we laugh
at misfortunes,
a third,
surprise,a gift I'll never take back.

Three is lucky,a magic number.

We'll not be together this time,
but know that
my heart is
aching,
stretching,
 yearning...
for you.

Thank you for loving me while you did.

    I know what you are going through I broke up with my boy friend some time ago it can be extremely hard to cope. I hope you find someone to cheer you up. It sometimes takes a relationship to get you over a relationship. Just because one person hurt you doesn't mean you should give up. I have moved on and I know you can too. Keep your chin up.
