Array ( [sid] => 92729 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => That's What I Get... [time] => 2005-04-29 17:27:12 [hometext] => I am convinced I love this boy and my parents are trying to talk me out of it. He knows I love him but feels that he will hurt me in the long run because he lives far away, so he broke it off before it started. Please comment! [bodytext] => What could my problem possibly be?
Perhaps a broken heart-
Trying so hard to hold it together
But I think I'm falling apart...

Feeling perfectly empty
And wonderfully alone;
Just one thing I wanted:
I wanted him to hold.

I hate the way he makes me laugh
When I barely wanna smile...
All I do is lay and cry
Face down on the bathroom tile.

I'm only fifteen years old;
I'm not supposed to have these feelings-
I'm running out of Advil
And my head is perpetually reeling.

All I wanted to do was be with him;
It seemed simple enough,
But God won't have my life be easy-
He loves to make it tough.

It'd be great if something would work out
Just one time this year.
And maybe for one night,
My eyes wouldn't tear...

My wishes are changing-
Not even sure what I'm wishing for...
Just one thing I know:
I don't wanna cry anymore.

Guess that's what I get for falling again
I'll never get him out of my head.
And so I wake, late at night,
My heart crushed, in my tear-stained bed. [comments] => 2 [counter] => 159 [topic] => 22 [informant] => CBlake [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 9 [ratings] => 2 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => LostLove )
That's What I Get...
