Array ( [sid] => 131320 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => getaway. [time] => 2007-02-03 00:50:14 [hometext] => i couldn't get her off my mind.. [bodytext] => I swear I didn’t cry on the plane knowing that I had lost your love
And I didn’t stare long and hard at myself in the bathroom mirror.
I didn’t lie awake in bed and wonder what you were doing.
I could care less.

I cursed my heart when it skipped a beat
As I dialed your number on the phone
And I didn’t smile when I heard your voice.
I Didn’t.

I didn’t write a word about you while I was gone
And I didn’t think about your incredibly gorgeous eyes.
You were not on my mind.

I didn’t look for you at the bottom of shot glass after shot glass
And I never kissed them, wishing it was you.
I had harmless fun.

I didn’t imagine me coming home
And holding you in my arms.
I didn’t want anything to do with you.

I didn’t listen to love songs
And only see your face and hand intertwined with mine.
I shudder to think of you touching me.

I didn’t count the day down
And forget about how you hurt me.
No.

I didn’t come back
And only want to see you face.
I didn’t miss you at all.
I did not.

Nice write my freind...
Reminded me of a great Phil Collins tune
"I Don't care Anymore"

"You know I don't care no more!
No more, no more
No more, no more
No more, no more
No more, no more
No more, no no more"

He can say it 1500 times but you know he does...

Nice work... Keep 'em comin'

Bill

I love this poem. You seem like a very strong person. I'm in this situation now, and I wish I could be as strong as you seem in this poem. -teresa
