Array ( [sid] => 9313 [catid] => 1 [aid] => Mick [title] => love condemns [time] => 2002-12-27 14:00:00 [hometext] => "This poem is as true to what happend to me as i could make it" ( the rhyming scheme is abcd abcd and continues that way ) [bodytext] => I’m trying not to love her
For loving her is a betrayal to myself
But trying not to love her is a betrayal to my heart
She never returned the love which I gave to her so freely

But now as I look into her beautiful face I feel so unsure
Will she hurt me again will more sadness be felt?
Why can’t she see she’s tearing me apart
Why doesn’t she appreciate my love why doesn’t she appreciate me?

I look into her eyes and I’m so afraid
And when she speaks I know things haven’t changed
She still doesn’t love me
She still doesn’t understand how much I feel

I give up and my heart recedes into the shade
Now love seems so foolish so deranged
She has my heart. Without it who am I supposed to be?
Will these scars ever heal?

As she walks away she says goodbye
And then she leaves me so very carelessly
I can’t hold myself together
I stand there watching her go

The tears form behind my eyes
She is what I will never have and yet she is what I will always need
I wish I could have held her
But her affection I will never know

She is gone and she continues without a thought of me
Would she care more if she knew how much I’ve wept
Would she care more if she knew of my despair
Does she know how pointless life is without her tenderness

I’m so alone the whole world must agree
I lay awake... It has been so long since I've slept
All this anguish I cannot bear
All I ever wanted was her love... her kiss

She has hurt me such a great deal
Maybe if I could just see her cry
If I could just see her feel something
Maybe then my anguish would fade

But she’s so happy and joy is all she seems to feel
Meanwhile I suffer and I feel like I should die
Yet she carries on without a remorseful feeling
I can no longer keep my anguish at bay

Now I cry all the time
And she doesn’t notice or she doesn’t seem to care
She has shown me no sympathy no compassion
And I still can’t seem to let go

Thoughts of her still pass through my mind
But what good is love if it can’t be shared?
O why did all this happen?
I could try to hide my agony, but it would still show

O please show me some kind of understanding
I don’t know if I can take this anymore
Show me my love isn’t a hopeless delusion
Show me a reason to carry on

I can’t stand this it’s all to saddening
I’ll try to walk away and on love I'll shut the door
And amidst all this misery and confusion
I hope I’ll find a reason to wake up even though all my love is gone [comments] => 2 [counter] => 166 [topic] => 2 [informant] => philly [notes] => [ihome] => 1 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 1 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => LovePoetry )
