[bodytext] => Its the temptation that feels so good Its the urge inside sometimes to remember how it was To imagine how it could have been And its the dirty little secret kept hidden underneath the layers of calloused skin Wear and tear this heart has been through Many moons it felt lost among the seas A shipwrecked vessel gently falling to the ocean floor But this beaten heart has made it through Don't say something small couldn't ever be so fierce, because I'll just prove you wrong But wouldn't you know it Once I got settled down Once my heart had a steady beat again And I didn't feel so fragile My world becomes twisted People from times I tried to forget Come rushing in from everywhere And I feel dizzy Emotions from my past swell up in my chest I swear I almost forget to breath sometimes Memories keep playing in my head after they've wound up in my life again And I remind myself why they weren't I'm my life anymore But I ache for them more And I run it over and over again in my mind And I miss them, I miss it all again I miss how my life used to be and the people in it Even if they hurt, I want them again its not fair that it works this way sometimes Especially when you know you can't ever have them the way you want Because that ship sailed long ago even though you'd tear through their soul to know what it would have been like if that one thing were different If that one thing never happened Where would we be at right now? Its almost a poisonous thought One that keeps you up in the night tossing and turning Running over it a billion times Its an infectious way of thinking But so curiously addicting [comments] => 1 [counter] => 208 [topic] => 33 [informant] => the_unknown [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => SecretLove )
