From_Now_On Posted July 5, 2005 Share Posted July 5, 2005 I can't help that I don't see you that way anymore When you broke my heart the last time I knew I had to move on You tell me that you love me and I got tired of believing it Maybe all of this puts me in the wrong But I don't feel like it does Deep down inside I know I'd always be there for you I know how hard I've tried And I'm risking my chances with somebody else Someone, I'm sorry, I shouldn't say this…but someone I care about And that's not meant to make you jealous It is just the truth How come me caring about him Has to mean I can't care about you? And is it really wrong for me to say He's someone that I see 'that' way And maybe you will just never see And maybe you're right Friends is not something we can 'just' be If that's really something you don't want now I try not to think that means you never cared But I'm starting to ask how, you ever could have (Not that you should have) And maybe this is all just so selfish of me And maybe I shouldn't have mentioned anything And I know that things may not work out with him at all I could be setting myself up for the exact same sort of fall But I'm happy right now Except that me being happy makes you sad Shouldn't seeing your 'best friend' smile make you just a little glad? It seems to me that deep down all you care about is you But you make me feel like I'm the one who's pushing us to lose Everything we ever had All of the good is lost in all of the bad I'm not going to push this new guy away If you were truly my friend I wouldn't have to do that to convince you to stay You were the one who couldn't ever decide what you needed And I was the one always left alone and defeated But somehow you manage to turn this all around on me Like my intention was just to hurt you Like I enjoy just being mean And I would move the entire universe If it somehow could make this work out If I could somehow show you what was real And teach you what my friendship is all about But I'm not the girl you're looking for I'm sorry, but I'm not I gave you everything I had And you only wanted what I haven't got And at first I tried so hard anyway Tried to be the girl you wanted me to be But I can't live my life like that Giving all that I have To be shoved to the back Anytime you need time to 'just live' How come that's all something you can ask me to give But if I get weary with your broken promises, these heartbreaks, and lies I become this evil selfish thing you terribly despise And how come you can say you love me And treat me the way you do If that's what you call love You'll never hear me say, "I love you too" Because I care about you so much more than all of this To me love isn't holding hands and stealing a hug and kiss Sometimes I wonder why I bother Trying to make this all right Then I remember no matter what You're my friend And it's worth the fight It's not titled. And it's not any good really. But it's everything I wish I could tell that boy. Somehow get it in his head. ~sigh~ Gr. I thought about sending it to him, but why bother? I've tried to explain things to him a milliong times. He'll never get it. Blah. -FNO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muppet Posted July 13, 2005 Share Posted July 13, 2005 Wow... thats alot of feelings.. There is a saying, or I dont know if it was me who made it up or some famous guy well; "Out of friendship comes love, not the other way around" or something like that.. Anyways.. It would've convinced me.. made it easier too move on when i lost my girlfriend.. Keep up the good work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mieshagirl Posted July 19, 2005 Share Posted July 19, 2005 Wow what a poem!! Some of your thoughts are thoughts I have had in the past. good job Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GettingOverIt Posted August 9, 2005 Share Posted August 9, 2005 If he would only read this and it make him understand...to see what he means to you and how what he's done has affected you.... I dont think he could handle this 'correctly' if he saw this now, but if he were just even a bit older, a tad bit more...mature, maybe... goodness how this would speak volumes to 'that boy.' I think one of the best lines in there is this: You'll never hear me say, "I love you too" Because I care about you so much more than all of this For me, personally, it hits home in ways I may have never understood before... Keep writing, You! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
From_Now_On Posted August 12, 2005 Author Share Posted August 12, 2005 Thanks everyone for the comments. And Gettingoverit...I'm particularly glad you picked out those lines because when I read back through it I felt the meaning that I had wanted very much to pull out of that part had gotten confused. But anyway...you are right. Perhaps later in life it all could be something he would understand...but not just yet. -FNO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
good_kisser_gal Posted August 17, 2005 Share Posted August 17, 2005 thats really a very nice poem...u know what, i also write my deepest feelings for a certain person through poems, most especially to someone who broke my heart but could even tell him that he did... pitty those guys that cant even feel how much they mean to us... this is my fav line: I gave you everything I had And you only wanted what I haven't got Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
From_Now_On Posted August 17, 2005 Author Share Posted August 17, 2005 good_kisser_gal, Thanks for the comment and you are right. There is a certain level of pity that manifests in the wake of the heartbreak. Because you know you would have been there and been good to them, and they didn't even realize what they were letting go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From_Now_On Posted August 18, 2005 Author Share Posted August 18, 2005 good_kisser_gal, You are right. Sometimes we just can't understand them. People, not just guys, are incredibly complicated. And yes, we still have a life to live. And we need to take care of ourselves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
