Array ( [sid] => 55735 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Our Story [time] => 2004-07-11 16:37:44 [hometext] => I wrote this poem at 2:30 AM one day after my boyfriend who was my everything broke up with me. I know anyone who's been through a similar experience can probably relate. [bodytext] => I hate when guys make promises
You know they cannot keep
Even worse when you believe them
And are swept right off your feet

We met in late November
And were quickly going out
And in only two weeks
I knew I loved you, without a doubt

You said “I love you more than everything
And will for the rest of my life”
You said “we’ll be together forever
I’ll be your husband and you my wife”

We had nights that were so special
In each other’s arms we’d lay
“I wish we could stay here forever”
Is always what we’d say

I was so happy when you held me
And when we did certain ‘stuff’
But when we both changed a little
Things started to get rough

I knew you liked another girl
You had no time for me
We hardly even talked
With your friends you’d rather be

You said we just need a break
Time for a little space
Of course this is all over the phone
You couldn’t tell me face to face

I did everything in my power to be together again
But it turns out you’d lied once more
You said we’re over
Completely forever and for sure.

You said we can never be us again
Because I hurt you so bad
But who didn’t eat or sleep for five days
Who has never hurt so much or felt so sad?

Now everything we said and did
Doesn’t mean a thing
Every I love you, I’ll never leave you
And all the songs we’d sing

Right on the Money, Deeper Than the Holler,
and of course Remember When
And I’ll never forget that horrible plea
of Lets Be Us Again

We tried to prove our love in so many different ways
Things I swore I’d never regret
But now that they mean nothing
They’re just some of the things I want to forget

I want to forget when you held me close
As close as we could possibly be
All the times I drove you crazy
And you did the same to me

Since I loved and trusted you so much
It all just felt so good
You said “I never want you to regret anything”
And I swore I never could

But now that it all means nothing
I wish I could take it all back
I was stupid for believing you
I know that for a fact

When we were together
I always worried about her
I knew you’d end up together
And on what would have been six months, well, you were

She’s really not that bad
Just a little more prissy and prude than me
But I really don’t want to see her get hurt
The way I was unfortunately

I want to say I’m not jealous
But we all know that’s not true
It’s just not fair, I had him first
Why does he want you?

I think of her doing all the things
That I was supposed to do
Holding you, being there for you, spending with family and friends,
And alone time, just to name a few

But I guess time alone
Isn’t something that you need
She doesn’t want to do that stuff
I guess that’s why you used me

You said yourself no guy should miss out on that
So what do you want her for?
Well for six months that’s why I was used
And I thought it meant so much more

I want to say that if I had the chance
I wouldn’t take you back
But even after all you’ve done
Strength and intelligence I still lack

I lay in bed sometimes and think
Of how it’s so unfair
And I cry myself to sleep sometimes
Because it gets so hard to bear

I’ve gone out with other guys
And even fooled around
I like being able to flirt
And mess around with guys I’ve found

I go out with other guys
And I’m happy for some time
But then when I’m alone, I miss you
And I can’t get you off my mind

I haven’t been half as happy
As the last time you held me
And even when I’m in *his* arms
Back in your arms I’d rather be

I don’t think I can ever have back
What I had with you
It was so perfect, I loved you so much
And I thought you loved me too

I am so mad at you
For all you’ve done to hurt me
But as much as I want to be over you
I know I never will be

Wow...
This was very good and painful to read.
I don't even know what to say to or about this.
Very well done and I hope things get better for you is about all I can offer sadly.

i don't even know what to say b/c i've said everything that you have to my boyfriend's face. it's so unfair that you could have given him everything and all he wants is to be with someone else who couldn't come close. i cared about my bf's family so much too...and his little brother actually told me that he didn't want to marry me anymore...lol cuz he loved the other girl now. it hurts. my email is sweet_and_sourlove@hotmail.com. i don't know if you'd want to talk about it. i've never met anyone who felt the same as i do.
