Array ( [sid] => 75300 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Pretensions [time] => 2004-12-11 10:58:05 [hometext] => When the torment of love lost becomes simply unbearable, can pretension mask the pain? [bodytext] => I still reminisce what used to be
When in your heart there was only me
But now those lovely days are over
For I know I致e lost you forever

I cannot stop myself from thinking
Will I ever find a new meaning?
For you I値l forever be waiting
Even if I知 waiting for nothing

While I am waiting I will pretend
That your broken heart I can still mend
Though I致e broken your heart into pieces
Through all my lies and false promises

I値l pretend that we池e still together
Pretend that I値l hold you forever
I値l do anything to make believe
I only have myself to deceive

I will pretend that I cannot cry
I will pretend not to question why
Pretend that my life is not empty
I will pretend that you still love me

I値l pretend that we are not apart
Pretend that I知 still inside your heart
I will pretend that I am still fine
I will pretend that you are still mine

Pretend that my world doesn稚 glow dim
And pretend that you do not love him
Pretend that tomorrow when I wake
There is still a world that would not break

I will hide the pain within a smile
Pretend that living is still worthwhile
I値l convince myself and try to see
That you and I are still meant to be

I値l pretend that there would come a day
When you値l return and forever stay
I値l wait for you, I won稚 say goodbye
I値l wait for you 奏ill the day I die

I値l still try to pretend until then
Until the day our paths meet again
I need not pretend that I love you
I値l just pretend that you love me too

I still reminisce what used to be
When in your heart there was only me
But now those lovely days are over
For I know I致e lost you forever

I cannot stop myself from thinking
Will I ever find a new meaning?
For you I値l forever be waiting
Even if I知 waiting for nothing

While I am waiting I will pretend
That your broken heart I can still mend
Though I致e broken your heart into pieces
Through all my lies and false promises

I値l pretend that we池e still together
Pretend that I値l hold you forever
I値l do anything to make believe
I only have myself to deceive

I will pretend that I cannot cry
I will pretend not to question why
Pretend that my life is not empty
I will pretend that you still love me

I値l pretend that we are not apart
Pretend that I知 still inside your heart
I will pretend that I am still fine
I will pretend that you are still mine

Pretend that my world doesn稚 glow dim
And pretend that you do not love him
Pretend that tomorrow when I wake
There is still a world that would not break

I will hide the pain within a smile
Pretend that living is still worthwhile
I値l convince myself and try to see
That you and I are still meant to be

I値l pretend that there would come a day

I値l wait for you, I won稚 say goodbye
I値l wait for you 奏ill the day I die

I値l still try to pretend until then
Until the day our paths meet again
I need not pretend that I love you
I値l just pretend that you love me too

Oh my god, great poem. It's very raw and honest.
