Because I don't want to hurt inside
I don't want to cry myself to sleep
I am afraid of these feelings
Because they've hurt me so many times
And they still linger in the darkness of my soul

I hate how you make me feel inside
I hate how you make me smile
I hate how I think about you at night,
Yet I like it at the same time
I know what I feel can never be
Or perhaps that is just my pessimism speaking

I hate how far we are separated,
Yet I smile because I don't want to hurt you
I enjoy our friendship and I would hate to destroy that
Then why does confusion and uncertainty still reign?
I guess what I am wondering is
Will you give me a chance?
Yet both answers I would hate to hear [comments] => 7 [counter] => 275 [topic] => 22 [informant] => bobotheclown [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 10 [ratings] => 2 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => LostLove )

This is lovely, Joel, and I think many people can relate to it, becasue it is something a lot of us go through.
I hope you feel better about things and they become easier to understand soon.

Great write,
*hugs* Phil xxx

Oh, Joel... a heartwrenching piece.... literally it seems.
I feel for you... but all I can tell you is to follow your heart and just................. breathe......... very slowly.

Lots of love and peace be with you,
