The Hole

by The Flame Within   Mar 9, 2005


It digs into my heart
like a hungry worm
my knees fall apart
i can no longer stay firm

i told her how i felt
but she just wanted to be friends
4 years for her my heart had melt
but it doesn't matter in the end

she does not feel like that for me
and i can understand
now she tells me about the boys she wants to marry
and i can only smile and stand

but the thought of her having a happy soul
can help fix my heart with this deep hole

if being just friends makes her feel good
then ill smile and stand there
acting like i understood
but for her i will always care

    Aww!!! Nick, I know exactly how that feels except if this is true, you took it better than I did. I told this guy I loved him, the only guy I've ever said I loved, and he told me that he thought of me more as a sister sort of person. I cried for weeks because I couldn't get over it, it was painful, but ever since then, he stopped talking to me after he found out that i went through a short anorexia period. I hate him now. I mean NOBODY should abandon a friend when they don't know what to do, and that issue is what I seem to be dealing with a lot lately. GREAT job, Nick. You're an astounding poet and I'm reading, rating, and commenting on EVERY one of your poems. :-D
