I used to sing songs to you
Though you'd never hear a sound
And dedicate my poems
Secretly to you year-round
And I know sometimes you noticed
Around you I'd lose my cool
You can't have known I wanted you
Always, even outside school
You can't have ever guessed
How desperate I was for you
You were my only want
And you didn't have a clue
Now fin'ly holding you in my arms
Forever calling you mine
I hope you see just how much I care
See all of the outward signs
You don't hear the songs I sing
Or read the words I write
But should always know I care
Each moment I'm in your sight
By the feel of your hand in mine
How, when I'm with you, all is fine
By the way I'll look you in the eye
By the way that I'll hug you goodbye
Never settle for not knowing
Think of me and you will see
I care for you with all my heart
With every breath I breathe

Great write. Is this the same guy you are having problems with now? To tell you the truth, I was having the same problems at the time too, trying to get over the guy I was inlove with and I didn't think I ever would be able to move on. That's why the first poem that day I wrote was the "My Love For You" and then on the back of it I had this one "Over You." I was just so confused, but I knew I deserved better. So when I finally let go and one of my friends wanted to set me up on a date I took a chance. I still had feelings for the other guy, but I was just sick of crying, and hurting, and just wanting someone to love me like in all those fairy tales you read. I wanted my happy ever after and I knew I would never get it with him. So I on that date I opened up my heart and I let the new guy(now my fiance) in. I knew it would be hard, I wouldn't be able to forget the guy, there would still be all are memories. But I realized, like you were saying, that I was more in love with our memories and the past and how it used to be. So my advice for you is to go out and get your happy ending too. You deserve it. Don't keep fretting with how your life is now, only you can change it, so change it, for the better. And when you do you will realize the greatest thing in life is loving someone and hearing when they say I love you that they actually do love just you. Good Luck with what you decide to do. Sorry if this was too long. I just kind of got carried away.
Take care of yourself,
Julie

Yep. This is the guy!
Never worry about comments being too long -- I really really appreciate it. The advice makes so much sense, and it really means a lot to me. I'm glad that things worked out for you, and hopefully, while taking your advice, things will go just as well for me too.
Thank you again for the wonderful advice and words of consolation -- it's nice to hear it from someone who's been there.
<3 Erin
