When I dream of you
I'm hurting myself
Because you and I could never be
"Our scars remind us that the past is real"
My broken heart is hurting me again
Why can't I get over you like I did the rest?
"I tear my heart open just to feel"
I can listen to music
To heal my soul
But in the end
I start to cry
Because I feel the pain
That we all write about
And Jacoby seems to know what I'm going through.
Long years have past
Without your face
Without seeing the people of my past
and my scars remind me
that my past is real.
Author notes
I wrote this because I was missing someone whom I was forced to leave. Each time I thought of him, it was like I was tearing my heart open, but I loved to think about the time we spent togeather.

Why can't I get over you like I did the rest?" How old are you? If it's too personal of a question then you don't have to answer!

I feel for you. This poem is very emotionally felt. It was a wbderful write, but don't dwell in the past because in the end it only brings more heartache. I know. I can relate well to your poem, keep up the good work.
