...tears for my almost lover

Life is urging me to move on,
but for some reason I’m glued to this emotion.
I’m glued on you.
I promised that I wouldn’t get attached.
I said that I knew what I was doing.
like always though,
my heart had another idea,
my heart fooled me good!

I fell head over heels on those lips.
Before I knew it I was lost
in that amazing hunger and lust
with which they pulled me in.

Like a baby with a new rattle I was hooked.

Last night I had a dream,
that you were mine,
all mine!
Today I realize what you really are…my lover.
No.
my almost lover.

So I have raging tears for my almost lover.
Who’s attraction I felt,
and who’s rising lust I sucked.
But who always stayed away.

I have frustrated tears for my almost lover.
They blind my sight,
for I prefer to stay in the dark.
Into I find out what to do.

Lonely tears run down my imperfect cheeks.
Just for you my almost lover…
who’s eyes were so eager to speak
But…
Who’s mouth kept shut,
Who was always drinking me in
when I walked by.
Who in the end just let me fly away,
For reasons that I won’t ever understand!

I bite my lip hard as I fight back scared tears.
As he hugs me tight by that cold empty bar,
and whispers
…”take care of yourself…”

I have angry tears for my almost lover.

I hope that you ladies like and fits what you are looking for!
the ugly is in that I couldn't keep him and that he was another's and not mine

    "heals" is spelled "heels".

    It reminds me of that song by a Fine Frenzy, titled "almost lover" as well.

    Love the emotion in this.

    hi...

    thanks so much for tuning the color down for us. this reads as though you have been really hurt by someone and i appreciate that you were able to place that hurt somewhere-

    thanks also for entering the contest
