it's funny how someone can hurt you so much, yet you can't let go. this is one i wrote after a night out with my crush. he tore me apart, yet i still hang around....don't ask me why...
I hear them outside, the soft chirping of birds disturbing my dreams. Slowly I am pulled from the sweet world of slumber and the light of day fills my eyes. The world outside is alive and waiting but I'm not ready to answer it's becon.
For now, I'm content curled in bed, daydreaming of the boy with velvet eyes. Intelligence, passion and beauty shine from those gentile orbs. They are the portals to a sould of such magnificance that I catch my breath every time I think of it. I wonder how such beauty can exist in a world filled with pain, hate and hoplesness.
I want to kiss him, hold him, show him just how precious he truly is. I want to find the key to his soul and feel his love fill my body. But it is only in my dreams that I have the power to make him love me. Ouside, in the world where the sun is shining and the birds are singing, there is no place for me in his life. He cannot see what I see, and my greatest efforts always fail to make him understand. His essence has captivated my sould and it is a trap from which I cannot escape. My wounded spirit writhes in torment, struggling like a caged bird to be free, as he confesses his love for another.
A pang of sorrow knifes me as I remember his words from the night bofore. I can try to pretend it isnt' true, but there is no use in deceiving myself. I have given my heart to someone who does not want to hold it.
As so many times before, I bend to pick up the shards, knowing that someday they will fit together again. Until then, I roll out of bed and give him a call.
 
I have never in my life read someone else's work and seen so much of myself in it. In my dreams I could have written that myself. For almost an entire year I lived in that situation. ALWAYS putting myself and my heart and my dreams second, obliviously letting him become the number one priority in my life. Something I had promised myself I would never do. In the end he saved me from myself by denouncing our friendship and telling me to never call him again. This time I obeyed him, and though there is still pain and sadness in my heart and I still miss him, I'm free. And I feel free, for the first time in about a year. If you ever need someone to talk to, IM me (RavahBabE) or email me at [email protected]. Keep your head up and fight for yourself kidd.

Thanks to both of you for posting this. I'm about half-way in between the two of you, if that makes sense. It's been about six months, and I'm in the "don't call me" stage. And I'm wanting to stop feeling like this, but I can't seem to do it. Can't get through more than a few hours without thinking about her. Can't stop thinking "what if". Can't stop thinking "I'd be perfect for her, why can't she see?"
RaveAngel, thanks for reminding me that these feelings DO pass, because I couldn't see a way in which they would.
