There once was a time if I just closed my eyes,
I could see us together as one.
But after these years of growing apart,
I can see that dream is done.
You were the one who knew me inside and out,
And always knew just what to say.
Any problems I had would disappear,
When you said it would all be okay.
There was always a special connection with us,
And these days it seems to be gone.
Whatever we had died a long time ago,
But it's just so hard to move on.
Those times I'd drown in the blue of your eyes,
You never noticed a thing.
There were nights I laid awake and thought,
Of the love our friendship could bring.
No matter how hard I've been trying,
The truth is so hard to see.
I guess it takes a while to let go,
Of something not meant to be.

This poem really did touch my heart and it is very touching. I liked it so much. It reminded me of somethings im going through right now. But it is hard to get over something like loving someone but i know i can get through it.

Angela
This poem is truly amazing. It expresses the way I feel for this guy that I really like. He still hasn't completely gotten over me but we can't be together because he has a girlfriend. We still talk about everything even his girlfriend. When he talks about her it brakes my heart, because I know we were never meant to be. The poem truly is amazing.

i can't even begin to express how this puts into a nutshell how i've felt about the man i love who just happened to be my best friend. i've looked for someone to fill the void since i lost him, but i know it never will be. thanks for a beautiful poem.i only wish it could change his mind. maybe one day he and i will be together.i guess only time will tell..
kim
