I smile on the outside,
as if nothing is wrong.
I sit alone thinking,
the days are much too long.
thoughts of you with her
are beating me up inside.
pushing them out is not an option -
I have tired.
what am I to do?
I can not ask you to wait.
I made this mess - I know
but is "FRIEND" now my fate?
I hate hearing you say
that she'll be over soon.
I sit and know you don't call
cause she's in your room.
the distance between us
grows larger everyday.
so much I NEED you to know
yet, I just cant say.
so now friends you say we are
and hope friends we stay.
my heart cries out in agony
to leave things this way.
but I will recover
and get my life back on track
but
I gave you my heart
and that's one thing I want back.

that is such a beautiful write, getting our heart back is not easy, and it never comes back in as good a shape as it was sent out. I love this write.

A very sad poem that has a hint of a positive affirmation that you'll get your life on track. It does hurt when you love somebody and they're with somebody us. I think most people can relate to that. Well done and thank you for sharing.

Wow ... this is written with compassion.
While, I've lived long enough to know in the end it all works out, it never is enough when you are going through this hell on earth called love. You did a brilliant job expressing this emotion. The beauty for you, is your heart, as evidenced by this beautiful poem, is still there ... now only awaiting the right person to share the beauty and love you have to give. Patience. Please continue to write your heartfelt words .... Best.
