This poem is so sad and sweet, I really like the deep emotions that flow through this piece. The truth is sometimes we rather keep pretending that we are in love instead of move on. I really believe that moving on is one of the hardest things to do when you truly love someone.

My favorite stanzas...

Tell me things will be okay
When I know that it's not true.
Then tell me that you still love me
In the same exact way that I love you.

I love this stanza because you are expressing a need to hear that you are love
even if it's not true.

At least then I'll have leverage
and will not be drowning
when I realize that to you
I mean nothing.

When we are losing our grip on someone we feel a need to use anything as leverage to hold that person or make them reconsider their thoughts about leaving us.

I love it...
