A Lost Friend and Love

by *:.~Lauren~.:*   Dec 14, 2003


It takes me courage to tell you how I feel,
I know you're with her,
But I know it's not for real,
I'm here with you,
Staring into your eyes,
I don't know if you can take,
This kind of surprise,
But I'll do it anyway,
And hope for the best,
Love is one thing,
But life is the true test,
So I'll close my eyes,
Blink away my tears,
Tell you how I feel,
After all these years,
I won't cry,
Just want to die,
Pity myself for ever falling in or out of love with you,
And take everything I had back,
Because you won't feel the same way, ever.

So I look at you,
Give you a hug,
Ask you if you're with her,
And then you shrug,
You say you are,
I tell you anyway,
That I'm hurting inside,
And it's not okay,
I'll tell you how that I love you,
And without you I would die,
That you shouldn't have to carry her,
Or take any of her lies.

I said I love you,
And you answered with an "okay",
Then you turned your back,
And just walked away,
It hurt a lot more than I though it would,
You're the only one who could make me stop crying,
And you know you should,
But you'll let me cry on my bed,
Have these memories of us,
Floating through my head,
I'll sit in my room,
By the phone,
Wondering if you'll call me,
When you're alone.

I couldn't sleep a wink last night,
I tried and tried with all my might,
But everytime I fell slowly into a dreamless sleep,
My emotions would appear,
The ones I could not keep,
I would break down in my room,
Start to cry,
Stare at my ceiling,
And want to die,
Call all my friends,
Tell them the news,
It's over,
And I don't know what to do.

I loved him,
He loved me not,
I loved him more,
But then I thought,
He never loved me,
He never will,
Even so,
I love him still,
And even though he hurts inside,
I'm not going to turn around,
And forget my foolish pride.

So whether you care or not,
I will tell you it is true,
Whether you believe it or not,
It's all up to you,
Just don't walk away,
Be the jerk I know you can be,
I love you forever,
And I hope that you will someday love me.

~Sadly to say, this is a true story. It happened to me and I was so hurt that I wrote a poem about it. This guy was the one guy I was in love with...Anyway, please comment on it! I want to see what you guys think! Thanks!~
