Just Understand

by *Amanda*   Oct 26, 2006


I'm sitting here tonight, by the fire
Thinking of you, when will these thoughts retire?

I know that I'll never get over you, but
I know that somewhere deep down, you still love me, too.
With you being so far away it's hard for me to sort out if you care
Or if you don't
I'm sorry that I get so caught up
I promise from now on, I won't.
I'm with someone else now, and
I think that might be why you're so fed up
Just remember, though, until the day we both die
You'll always have my unconditional love
And it hurts me to think that you mistake how I feel
For not letting you go, and
It hurts me to think
That you tell your friends there that you love me and you know.

Somehow, though
You have this way of making me feel like it's so one-sided
That since we're apart
We need to stay divided.
I'm done, anyway
I've given you my heart for a lot of years and
Every single time, I always end up in tears...

Just know that my whole entire world does not revolve around you
Like you think I do
I have a life, too.

I'm glad that I have some weird sense of closure now
No more asking why or how
Now I can devote more time to loving my man
I just wish that somehow, some way...you would just understand.

    Its very good, and an excellant start. It has rough spots that just need to be soothed over to make it a really good poem

    4/5
