I Can Go On Without You.

by Courageous Dreamer   Jun 26, 2008


I can go on without you,
I know I'm strong enough.

I just need to face the facts,
that maybe I'm really not the one for you.

I liked you for three years,
wasted so much time, and learned so much.

At least I didn't take that leap,
and risk everything and get hurt.

Maybe I'll be better off not thinking about you,
just clearing every thought of you from my mind.

I just want to go back to be myself,
and not wondering what I could have had with you.

I need to lose all those feelings I once had for you,
because apparently I never had the guts to release them.

Possibly giving up is my best option, for now at least.
to be able to have time and gather my thoughts..

To be able to actually really decide if I should take that risk,
or to just give everything up once and for all.

I can go on without you in my life,
you don't have to be my boyfriend or my best friend.

However, it would mean the world to me,
if we could be at least friends.

It's not that I ever saw that in the first place..
I know that I'm probably better off without you anyway.

All I ever wanted to know was how you felt,
and I never discovered that.

So now I'm trying to go on with my life,
I know I'll live without knowing your feelings towards me.

For now, I am finished,
until I make up my mind and possibly start a clean slate.

These are just a ton of things on my mind at the moment and thought I'd share. :]

    I loved this. In fact, I pretty much love everything you write. It all comes off so real, and just straight from the heart. That's always important when it comes to writing, I think. I like how you say you don't this particular person to be your boyfriend, or best friend, and how you say you can go on without him. The end was quite good. Starting over is always the first step when it comes to getting over someone, even if there was never much of a relationship to begin with. I loved it.

    5/5

    Spilling out ones feelings is theraputic. I am guessing this just flowed out. It has an ease about it that is refreshing and an honesty that is pureness. I can relate to this at the moment too, so it is helpful to read from other similar experiences.

    Thank you

    Anyways, now that I know that this is new I have to say I loved the repition, and how after each I can't you went on to say why. That was good. It was a good poem that kept me reading to see what I can't would pop up next. :) Four out of five.

    This is really good.. i felt the same way before with the person that im with right now. i kinda feel that way but im waiting for him to tell me how he feels before i do something i will regret.

    just take time to clear your mind and make sure that your making the right decision.

    as for the poem.. it was very emotional and heartfelt.

    good job. and good luck with everything.

    5/5
