Loved and Lost

AMusings

You are the one,

The boy whose lesson,

Taught me the difference,

Between I want you,

And I love you.

 

That often,

Those who claim to want you,

Rarely mean it's love. 

 

It's not that you broke me,

You didn't,

Because even though I loved you,

I will never want you again. 

 

You are the boy,

The one who that taught me,

That you are forever a boy,

And I should only love a man. 

 

But you are reason,

Why this girl,

Grew into a woman,

Who would never give any a chance.

    more power to you!
    but we're not all bad eggs
    promise
    you need not, give up
    on happiness
    just learn to point out
    and bin
    the cracked shelled ones
    in the pack...
    thanks for sharing

      Ah if only it were so easy, its the broken ones which cut you up in the end. Thanks for reading.
