#79 Painful Love

The pain that remains from that one special person's parting, leaves you forever changed - And always wishing for that innocence to be restored.

Painful Love

by Jayzee

Watching you from across the room
sends searing pain through my heart.
I think back to a year ago,
when I thought we'd never part.
My love for you just won't die down -
it just grows with each new day.
I wish you'd dare to look at me
and hear what I have to say;
"I love you and I want you back - "
but these words you just won't hear.
You don't seem to remember them -
all the memories I hold dear.
You were my first kiss, my first love
and now you don't even care.
How could you just blow it away?
We were the perfect pair.
you seem content to let me go -
You're doing fine as you are,
while I'm still missing how we were.
We had the best love by far.

I felt sad reading the poem coz' i can exactly relate with the emotions behind the poem. It's true that sometimes we can't just let go especially if we love someone sooo much. but we just need to let go for us to recover soon.

This poem is sooooo wonderful. i cried over it. it is so true. i mean even if its not ur first love. its that one person that you always saw urself fit with and theres soooo much pain and u just want to be together. This is the first Christmas without my loved one and he has moved on and is dating someone else. I know he still loves me. I will forever love him but will let go soon. i cant grow old waiting.

My ex that i still love, he died, of cancer, they kept trying treatments on him but they didnt work. so by the time i found out he had 2 weeks to live and he said that he was sorry for ever breaking my heart and that he had still loved me to. i miss him so much

GR8 POEM . Reading it makes me realize what I once had, and lost . I really love the poem . GR8 WORK!
stephanie

struck a cord. i am still in love with my first love. and we parted nearly 10 years ago. he ended it, and i died inside. i have never loved anybody as intense and freely since. i recently talked with him for the first time in years and for the first time ever he admitted his regrets and confessed that he loves me as deeply as i love him. give it time. sometimes the temptation for them proves too much. he could love you every bit as you love him. like he would admit his mistakes.
megan
