About the Poem

People don't always feel the same way about us, as we feel about them. It's not a crime, only human nature. We all know this of course, but we also know the hurt that comes when the feelings aren't shared ones. I do believe that forgiveness does help bring peace.

Let's Make A Deal

You forgive me for liking you too much,
And I'll forgive you for not liking me enough.

You forgive me for missing you so,
And I'll forgive you for being so cold.

You forgive me for the loud racing of my heart,
And I'll forgive you for not hearing it.

You forgive me for playing your games,
And I'll forgive you for toying with my emotions.

You forgive me for finding you so attractive,
And I'll forgive you for not noticing.

You forgive me for raising you up so high,
And I'll forgive you for bringing me down so low.

You forgive me for wanting to be with you,
And I'll forgive you for avoiding me.

You forgive me for being so pathetic,
And I'll forgive you for taking advantage of it.

You forgive me for not being able to let go,
And I'll forgive you for never having latched on.

You forgive me for having hopes and dreams,
And I'll forgive you for crushing them.

Forgiveness brings inner peace.
Do we have a deal?

This poem at this time in my life said what I needed and wanted to say but could not seem to find the words until now, but now let them be your words I say. Thank you

I just love the poem.
Valerie
This poem was beatiful. I am sorry to admit that I was the one that needed to be forgived. The one that hurt him so many times. The one that ignored his love and his kindness. But he never gave up on me. After 15 years 2 marriages (his & mine) 2 children and a lifetime of lost memorie's he has learned to forgive me and I have learned to open up to his love. Being loved unconditionally is the most beatiful love of all. I thank-you for finding the words that describe how I felt all these years. I'm sory for hurting you my love. please forgive me?
Brenda
Thank you ~ you've captured my thoughts precisely!

Kelsey
OH my gosh. This is amazing. Someone once told me the reason poetry is so great is because when you read something that is happening to you, you know someone else has gone through it, and they lived. This poem is just. . . amazing.

Peachez
I was looking for a poem to send to my ex. I am going through an emotional time right now. This poem was exactly what I was trying to get acroos to him. This is beautiful poem.
Sharon
This poem touched me so much. It has happened to me before years ago and just recently happened to me again. Same person but even though I didn't get too close to him this time, it still hurt so bad. I ended up working with him and when he left for a transfer, I didn't let anyone see the tears and the ones that did, I came up with an excuse. I don't want him to know how much I'll miss him and I won't burden him with the idea that I still cry and I still miss him just as if it was the first time around. I'd rather keep it to myself, because I always felt invisible in his eyes.
Catalina
I love this poem so much. Honestly when I read it, it touched my like no poem has.

Kristy
Amazing, I cried. Im glad i'm not alone.
Jackie
This poem came very close to giving words to my pain and embarrassment. It was very validating, especially where it spoke about "playing games" and "being pathetic"! It helps to know someone else knows what I'm feeling at least.

OH MY GOD . YOU HIT MY HEART LIKE A MACK TRUCK WITH THIS ONE. I'M FEELING SO BAD NOW AND YOU EXSPRESSED EVERY FEELING IN MY BODY . OH MY GOODNESS I'M ABOUT TO CRY . YOU TOLD THE TRUTH SO WELL.
Alexandra
This poem explains how it is with every guy I go out with. Why is it the girl always seems to love the guy more then the guy will ever love her? It hurts. I'm only 14 years old and the thought of guys always being like they are now, scares me. But I have relized something over the past year. Just because someone doesn't love you like u love them does NOT mean they don't love you will all they have! But yes this poem is the best poem i have ever heard and it touches my heart. U have great talent and im shocked!
tori

I love this poem. And it's so fitting for what I'm going through and anyone who is or has gone through a one sided relationship. Where one person cares and gives thier all and the other doesn't seem to notice or even care. Thank you!
Laure
i can totally relate to this poem. i fell in love with this guy and we became really good friends since we can't be more than that. but now he has another and we've grown so far apart and i dont know what to do

mario
Thank you for the eloquent piece. Going through something like that now, I was looking for some music to pass the sorrow: miles, coltrane, wonder, sade, even holiday. Your poem was the lyrics to my sorrowful song. Thank you, from "the soldier fighting the losing battle".
jamie
Your poem told the story of my last relationship with a very close friend of mine. It says everything I have been thinkng but could never find how to put it into words. Thank you!

jen
So, I have been dealing with the break up with my boyfriend aka.. the one that got away, and all in the wrong way. I was blaming myself when really, he's the stupid one. This poem allowed me to get mad. as any dumped girl should be, because they have been rejected. Any way, thanks.. and as the Spice girls used to say "GIRL POWER!"
julie
you said it i felt it!
Kelly
This poem was very touching it explained exactly how me and this kid i really liked were. He did the exact thing to me making me believe it was true and then he went off with my friend. Love hurts but sometimes you just have to get past it. Thanks
nitza
I think this poem really proves a point,because sometimes we give too much to somebody who doesn't give enough to us.All the do is make us seem like if we aint worth nothing or like they are better than us.

Jeremy
This poem describes so much my love for a certain woman, her scorn to me, and the fact that I am incapable of being angry with her. Thank you Di.
Sunan
I have been in love with man for 10yrs. He and I were really good friends as well, but he also knew how I felt about him, and his respoonse was that he's not responsible for anyone feeling a certain way about him. Well, I sent him your poem, and all hell broke loose. He said he never expected to recieve something so mean from a friend, and to stop. I no longer speak to him. I figured if it didn't hit so close to home, why the anger? Thank you, you expressed what I'd been feeling all these years.
Kristin
This poem is so touching I find myself just crying reading it, yet it helps. Thank you so much for writing this poem it really helps me into moving on past this prolonged crush, it also makes me realize that I'm not alone in these mixed up emotions.
sunant
I am in an unrequited relationship with my best friend. I love him and have for years. He knows this and cannot/or refuses to return the same feelings, though he says I make him feel special and happy. Has he ever sat and wondered what do I get from this? This poem says it all for me..
Zoraya
This really describes how I feel at this moment. I really liked it and I hope to read more like this.

amy

Kuresh
I recently broke up with some one who I really loved. It was after nearly 8 yrs after my first break up that I got the courage to get into another relation with someone I loved. The first break up wasn't the fault of either, as it was destiny, she loved me even when she was on her death bed. The recent one ended up bitterly much against my wishes she went of with someone who I don't know about.
Andrew
I once said that these words were the words that my soul yearned to speak, and i wasn't lying. Its been almost a year and a half, but I still feel pain when i think of my ex. Thank you Di, I never would have been able to express this clearly to her without your poem.
karen

Joey
I love the poem. It looks so simple, but it's meaning is deep. I'm feeling much the same, and it's so unbearable to realize that the person you need SO much doesn't really care anymore.
Laura
This poem is beautiful - it says everything I could never say!
RODNA

kerri

Nick
I really did enjoy reading this poem. I sent it to the one that I felt this way about and he was also truly touched, so much that he asked why I hadn't told him my true feelings earlier on. I felt it was too late but now he seems to think this is just the beginning. Thank you very much. My dreams of out friendship being developed finally did come true after many months.

Linda
I was truely touched by this poem, and I have read many, it was the Best.
Åse
A wonderful poem! Just what I'm going through now:-( It's so hurtful when the person you love (and who loved you once) don't love you..
Jaco
What a deal...!
Shinomizu
I felt this way exactly - and unluckily it happened with my best guy friend. Too much love can kill you - if you're not wise enough to keep some of it for yourself. I think we all have felt this way sooner or later, and this poem expresses in a wondeful and catching way what often we don't know how to say - even to ourselves. Good job! Thank you :-)
Dawn
Wonderful-- speaks to me!!
Diana
This one is really great and so true. I can feel and understand the poem because I am going through this right now with someone. Thanks for sharing!!! Sincerely, Di.
Shar
Fascinating!! Simply amazing!
Amberly
Di, This is the most incredible poem I have ever read. I have been in a relationship with a boy for 6 years and this is the poem that is ending it all. He plays games with me and now he wants to stop; however I want to stop him. I love him and he is breathtaking to me and I worship everything about him; however I have never had anyone pinpoint it to the perfection that you have. I hurt and I will hurt for a long time to come, but I deserve better. Thank you so much you'll never know how much you have had an impact on my life. Thanks, Amberly
Heather
It was one of the most beautiful and truthful poems I have ever read.

Di, Your poem is such an inspiration to me. Believe it or not, I am going through exactly all of the things you stated in your poem. Now that I have read it I seem to find another aspect to my whole situation. SELF LOVE! Thank you very much, and I wish you the best!!!!
Bob
How do you care for someone so much, and the other cares so little. Does that person fear the passions of that love
Philip
I have no idea how old you are Di, but I am a man in my 40's who was reminded once of my youth, and how even at my age it can happen again.

Cain
I loved this poem. Im in an identical situation with a girl at the moment. Although she kind of drops hints that there could be more than platonic love between us, she quickly changes back into friend mode and Im left feeling really quite empty. Im not one who likes to give up easily though. *S*
very

Claudia
I really enjoyed that poem
hope
This poem really described how i was feeling at the time that i found it. Sometimes we know how we feel, but can never put it into words quite like the poet. If i had to rate this poem on a 1-10 scale, i would definately have to say it is a 10, with 10 being the best.
Heather
Love the poem! Great JOB!
YOLANDA
GREAT POEM I REALLY ENJOYED IT
liz

Nicest poem to explain just how much pain you feel and even after all that, you're still considerate enough to "forgive."
katia
this poem is very good at expressing how one feels when they love too much.
Kyna
This poem is really great and expresses the feelings that many teenagers, both male anf female have when they talk about loving someone who doesn't love them back. This poem perfectly describes how I feel about the love of my life who was once there and now doesn't even know that I exsist! Thanks for writing such a great poem!

Valerie
It hit my problem on the head.
Tukata
I really like your poem. It is straightforward and very concise. I like the way it expresses the message that "I'm hurt" but also i can feel that the person in the poem is strong. Great job :)
Michelle
I have had this emptiness on my heart over a past relationship. I myself am not creative enough to express my words in such poetic beauty as "Di" and I found this poem and sent it to him and finally felt closure. Thank you, thank you so much for helping me accomplish this (I don't know the voting scale but I would give this a 9.7 out of 10)
Tiffany
loved it!
gina
That was an excellent poem, in fact im about to send it to my crush, because thats the only way I can express how i feel. Thankyou for finding the words for me.

A heart wrenching and totally accurate account of a one sided relationship. To put it in to words of this clarity takes emmense insight and courage.
stephanie

dy'er
Wow,this poem hit me like a ton of bricks. This describes a situation of mine to the tee.

Teresa
Loved the intensity of it. I could feel her pain.
Sally
So sad .. even sadder that I can relate to it
squiggs
id like to say i loved your poem, for me its almost as if you fought back against the one that hurt you. in a way there is two sides, the hurt and the hurters and this poem fights back, for you and for me, maybe for our whole side. thanks for your thoughts and feelings in this one
Lee
i can feel for the poem. It brings out the hurt the author feels, yet does not suggest hatred. Basically, it is beautifully written.
Jenn
Great poem! It is exactly how I feel about one of my friends now. He used to like me but I couldn't go out with him then. Now I like him and he is back with his old girlfriend who treats him badly. I love him and want to be with him forever - he know it and takes advantage of it to. I try to tell myself that we are just friends but I always find myself hoping for more. His playing games with my emotions doesn't help! Good luck in your situation. I feel for you. :)
trina
nice!
April
That is truly a deep poem. I loved someone once in that very same way and still do. But we became best friends after 3 years. That poem touched my heart and spoke to my soul. Great Job!!

I recently sent this to my ex-bf. It speaks the truth. Although he took it as ME apologizing to HIM, I received the message loud and clear!
Derek
This poem hit home on every aspect of the relationship that I am currently fighting for to keep alive. Every line is true and as much as I hate what my girlfriend is putting me through, I know that in the end forgivness is the answer.
ashley
that is a very lovely poem that is so very true.. we all want some one we cant have and sometimes i think thats unfair but i suppose its for the best cuz we all have our special some one out there.. but once again that is a very outstanding poem i really like it. so i give it a 10
Tim
AWSOME!
Felicia
This poem is so on the money when itcomes to those one sided romances.
Denise
I just loved this poem.Never thought that someone else could be feeling the same as I do right now.I talked to him on the phone this morning, and eventough he was really,really nice to me, things between us, can never be the way they were.... I love him, but he just 'likes' me.... Just thank you for writing this poem.... It makes me feel a little better!!
