Array ( [sid] => 108381 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => If I Could Tell You Anything [time] => 2005-10-24 19:36:40 [hometext] => My first post here... tell me what you think! Thanks. [bodytext] => If I could tell you anything
What would it be
It would start with I still love you
Do you still love me

If I could ask you anything
I’d ask “where did I go wrong”
When did the love we built
Stop and not move on

Where would I be
If you were by my side
Could I still be happy
If we gave it one more try?

I hate to think it’s gone
But I know it’s true
But it’s the one thing that I got
Holding on to you

Be it right, be it wrong
It gets me through the day
So I can go to sleep and act
Like you never went away

If I could tell you anything
I’d keep it all inside
Cause it would hurt too much to see
It all pass me by

Maybe I let you go to easy
Maybe I should have tried
To keep us all together
For you to stay mine

Even if we stayed
Together to this point
You’d still be a free spirit
I can’t pretend to bring you joy

If we were still together
You’d still be unhappy
And I would be exhausted
Thinking how to be

Everything you want
And everything you need
I would not be happy
Knowing I couldn’t be

All the space you need
And all the time to grow
I can’t make you love me
But I think you ought to know

If I could tell you anything
This is what I’d say
I’d start with I still love you
And that every night I pray

That somewhere deep inside your heart
You still have love for me
And you ask yourself the question
If I could tell you anything

It doesn't matter what I think or anyone else for that matter-
It is your poem so what you think is all that matters-
Keep writting and I look foreward to reading more of your words...

A long and boring collection of random, generic sappy mush.
