Array ( [sid] => 7061 [catid] => 1 [aid] => Mick [title] => My Worst Enemy [time] => 2002-11-20 05:20:00 [hometext] => food for thought [bodytext] => There's someone I can't live without
and I wish they'd love me more.
If only they believed in me
and could see what others saw.

If they'd just try that bit harder,
take the time to understand
that I am just as capable
and although I don't, I can.

There's someone I can't live without
who is born to criticise.
They never hear the positives,
just the doubt between the lines.

If they'd make more of an effort,
treat me truly as a friend,
the world would be for me to have,
its pathways with no end.

There's someone I can't live without
and I wish they'd take the time
to trust, to love, respect me
as they do close friends of mine.

I often sit and think about
how wonderful it will be
when one day I unlock the door,
one day I find they key.

There's someone I can't live without
and she's with me constantly.
I hear you say "Just throw her out!"
Well, I can't because it's me. [comments] => 4 [counter] => 178 [topic] => 21 [informant] => nessiecat [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 5 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => Lifepoems )
