I hear your sweet whispers,
tell me all these things
that you know I don't want to hear.
Tell me how you love the way she moves,
her smile and laughter,
everything I couldn't be for you.
I was your big mistake,
your disease that you claimed you could cure,
but you tried, and you failed.
No surprise.
I still love you though,
the way you ruffle my hair and smile.
No one smiles at me anymore,
not since I 'cracked'-
not since I broke down for them.
Your still so close,
but so far away....
I can't help but miss you.

This is amazing! Very sad though. But the whole thing flowed so well! I really really like it! Excellent job! I can definitely relate to some of the feelings in this write. So it definitely struck a note with me. Great job once again! Keep it up!

This is sad and yeah I myself have been in this type of situation where I tried to love or better yet be in love with someone I did love. I didn't like thinking of myself as shallow so I tried. as wonderful as a person as she was my heart just didn't followw the mind. I enjoyed the read and good luck in the contest. P.s. I think the two linnes that end back to back with though is a bit much meaning the second one(last though) isn't nneeded
