(Im not sure wheater you will see the story I wrote but I hope you enjoy it anyway) [bodytext] => When we were together, I was something of a rose
I was happy with the air and the way the wind would blow
But now that it has past and we just didnt seem to last
The sun has now gone in
The brightness faded away
And all that I fed on has not at all wanted to stay

The seeds of which you planted, have withered at the root,
Ever since you angrily stood on them with your foot
Why did you encourage me to grow and water me each day
And then when I began to bloom,
You wished me far away

I'm sorry I just think its a little unfair
That you would wish for a flower
And then as soon as you have her
You drowned her out like a shower [comments] => 3 [counter] => 175 [topic] => 22 [informant] => SweetRhythm [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 4 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => LostLove )

i find that those without love have more power than those with it.
