But I have feelings too
The last thing that I want to hear
Is how her happiness still hurts you
Why should it matter how she is
When I am in your life
Am I not enough for you
The thought cuts me like a knife
The saying says things only hurt
If deep inside you care
This goes to show you love that *****
Leaving me deprived of air
You can’t see the tears that fall
Someone else is on your mind
Your ex-wife left you months ago
And now you’re leaving me behind
I’m slowly dying before your eyes
But you choose not to see
First is something I’ll never know
Second place I will always be [comments] => 3 [counter] => 156 [topic] => 22 [informant] => lizabeth283 [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 5 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => LostLove )

My sister is in the same predicament you are in and so I offer the same advice.........Don't settle for second place or play second string to his feelings for her. If he can't let her go - let him go because in staying with someone who even lets you feel this way, you are cheating yourself. Much luck......
Thanks for sharing!
