Love Doesn't Know

Im seeing now things I hoped would never come,

They stand so near that I can hardly breath in their presence,

Sadness seeps through open wounds as I wonder if there was more I could have done,

No answer I see just a silent farewell and a promise of forever forgotten...

I know that it's hard to let go,
But still harder just to hang on,
When you no longer want me,
But i cant see myself without you.

It hurts to know the truth,
That i need you ,
When your need for me has long since gone,
And its finally really over this time.

I can see the end clearly,
I'm terrified of the view,
I fee you slipping through my fingers,
I'm losing what little grip I had.

I'm falling away from what we were,
As reality is shoved in my face,
Heart feels like it will never stop bleeding,
Yet somehow it's still beating.

I struggle to keep on living,
Crying myself to sleep at night,
Since you aren't there to make it all ok,
I guess it's still better to know.

Though I still keep on pretending it was real,
Wanting so badly to hang on to fantasy,
Have this dream go on just a little bit longer,
But I guess I have to face the fact.

It seemed such a short time ago,
When we first started out together,
We were so happy, young and nieve,
Not knowing what would become of us.

We knew only that we loved each other,
And at the time that was all that mattered,
But sadly love fades and hearts drift apart,
So now we are both alone and seeing clearly.

I'm still not sure what happened,
Or why it has to end the way it is,
I know I have to let you drift away,
The clouds have lifted and it's killing me.

It should be you who ends this,
Say goodbye and give me some excuse,
I suppose your'e just too afraid ,
So ill be strong and do it myself.

So I will do what must be done even another self made sarcifice for you,

Though it will probably be better for both of us someday,

As of now however im still dying on the inside,

And trying to find all the mangled pieces of my heart... 

Author notes

For someone of my long since past. I've found most of the pieces of my heart, taped them together and happily handed the bits over too another and so life goes on...

      Everyone has sorrow in their lives but there is a time to cry and a time to laugh. This boy was of my past and I still love him but this time we are friends. Life goes on as long as you are willing to let it. Thanks.

    This poem is so beautiful in a raw, almost bleeding sense of the word. I was amazed to read that this is from your past, seeing as it seems to be such a real 'now' sort of pain. You really have talent, and I'm glad that you were able to patch yourself together and come out on the other side. That's proof of strength.
    God Bless,
    Larkbird
