Array ( [sid] => 98759 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Spent [time] => 2005-06-20 19:28:33 [hometext] => Sometimes things that seem insignificant at first become the most difficult to live with.... [bodytext] => Empty and Bitter....
And I'm the only one to blame.
The path that I've chosen;
The choices I've made,
All I can do is hang my head in shame.

I can't let go and I can't forget;
Cause I knew all along.....
I did it to myself-
And I don't think I'll ever get over this!

Stuck in a situation-
Where no-matter the outcome I lose.
Taunted by my selfishness;
Why is it only pain that my heart Pursues?

I can't change the past-
But I wouldn't even if I could;
And I'm falling apart,
Over something I knew would never last!

It makes no sense,
With me nothing ever does....
Everything has become distorted-
My heart; Ignorant to logic,
I cannot trust....
My mind cannot afford it.

Never again will I allow myself to care-
My faith in love has been spent.....
And the cost was much more than I could bare!

This write is amazing!

I do this to myself as well, all the while knowing that I'm doing it.
Anyway, I know where you're coming from.
Well done, Rikki

I felt this way once, too.

Your exclamations really speak your soul in this work.
