ElegantEclipse's blog: "My Poetry"

I wish you cared about me,
The way I care for you.
I wish I knew what to do,
To get over you.
I thought when this stage of life  came,
People where suppose to know what it is they really want.

I have learned so much about myself.
I have grown and evolved as a person.
You have always been so private.
Never revealing much of anything.

I don't know what happened,
I can't even ask you.
I think she broke your heart,
The same way you broke mine years ago.

Isn't it funny how karma works.
You do it to me,
And someone does it to you.
Are you rethinking,
All that transpired between us.
The way you used me to get her back.
How you allowed her to attack me.

After three long years,                                                                                                     

I am still standing back.
I am watching you,
As you go through the same pain.
Understanding it all,
Without saying a word.
The difference is what I have learned.

I have learned to get up everyday,
To move on with life anyway.
To deal with you in my mind,
Knowing that you will never leave.

I have learned to love you from a far.
Wishing you all the best.
If my dream hasn't come to fruition yet,
Then God is telling me,
It is what is best.

I could never ask you to accept less,
Than what your heart has a desire for.
The same as I could never accept less,
Than my heart wanting you for eternity.

Isn't it funny how life will say,
These two hearts,
Can't go the same way.

At least we are friends anyway,
You can lean on me if you want to.
I'll keep it straight inside my mind,
I'll remember that friends is all it will ever be.
