I'd ask you if you're
okay
but I do not want to be
more of a bother
I'll leave you be and
maybe you'll see how terribly
sorry I am

Hurting you is never
an intention I
would make
I told you the
truth when I said
I loved you,
I did
I did
I did

I promised id always
stay true
and darling,
so did you

I use to get lost
in thoughts of
you
but the thoughts of
you have faded
and now im getting
lost I'm someone
else's eyes

You are no longer
my own true
one
and that is why I
must go
we are not friends
nor foes
just ex-lovers

I gave all I could
but it still
was not enough
and I was no longer
happy
with myself and
who I became being
with you my
dear

But darling,
I have high hopes
for you
and there will be another
who could love
you
more than I ever
could

Goodbye,
always and forever

I fell for you,
I fell for you hard

Maybe its the way you
held me
or maybe it was the way
you understood me
like no other did

The long summer nights
and how you kissed me
'till the morning light

Oh darling..

When you are not here
I cant seem to get you
out of my mind
I just miss you so

and the days I saw
you
I cherished until the day
I saw you again

The way you would
smoke your
cigarette
inhaling and exhaling
every breath

You were perfect in
my eyes
every one of your
flaws were nothing
but beauty

I never questioned
being with you
not once
not ever

To this day,
I get butterflies
as I think of you my
dear

you gave me a kiss before you
left but you never
said itd be the last

why did you have to go..
broke every promise made
when you said you'd stay
left me behind for me
to rot  

A day doesn't go by
without missing you

when I think back
of that day,
I feel empty and
lost all over
again

I can still hear you whisper
'i love you'
and it breaks my heart every time ..

I visit you some days
but all im talking
to is a tombstone
with 'R.I.P Chris'
engraved in it

I need you here,
I need you now

Your touch
Your love
You..

You and I ,
sitting on the
old oak bench
where we once carved
"I+B= 4evr"
with a framed
heart around it

the day you told me
you loved me so
you promised
you'd never let
go
and how you
promised me forever

but here we
are now
sitting on the oak
bench where we
once carved
"I+B= 4evr"
chatting about how
you promised me
forever
and what went wrong
and why I am no
longer yours
    and how
         you are no
longer
      mine.

For I am afraid to
love again
because the one that
taught me what love was
is now loving someone better
than myself
and all i ask is "why?"
should i have apologized for caring
to much?
should i have apologized for loving
you until i had nothing else
to love?
my dear, you left me with all these
unanswered questions


when you left , i lost
myself and cried until my eyes
bleed red
but now i am here lying
in the bed we use to
share
staring at this white blank
ceiling , thinking of you
and all the things you did wrong.

I am tired,
tired of feeling miserable
tired of feeling empty
tired of missing you
tired of reminiscing all
our past memories


tired of feeling like nothings
going to get
easier
tired of false promises
like the time you promised
you would stay

so darling,
when we meet again
and ask how I've been ,
ill be sure to tell you
I'm just tired.

I question
who I am
when I am with
you

when you hold
me
nothing seems
to matter

my whole
world stops
to soak in all your
love

and when you are
not here
i start to lose myself
again

for now you are not
here and my heart
feels empty

maybe its because
i miss you dearly
or maybe
because

this is just
a poem
and youre only
in my head.

365 days it's been
Since I first saw you
     at that record store around the corner
Oh how I can never
seem to forget that cute little grin

we had conversations
    about music and favorite ice cream
I swear you almost
dinned Lou Reed into my head
            didn't take long for me
to have to find my patience

But I didn't mind
        because you looked at
me like no other boy would

we went on dates to
        Ben & Jerry's and
afterwards we went along
      and met your mates.

You took me to all
your thinking spots where
      we shared all our
deep secrets
every dripple, every drop

We spent some nights
     hiding in the sheets
gazing into
each others eyes
     as you kissed me 'till
the morning sky

You told me you
loved me so
and never met someone with
the purest heart
      I never had a clue..

Awoke one beautiful
     morning to awful
news
you picked up the phone
               they told you I was dying
you held me and started crying

I told you
"bad things happen to good people"
your words went into
         circles as you told me
"I'm here and I'm never letting go"
     that's when I knew
I loved you so.

              365 days it's been
     since I first saw you
at the record store around
            the corner

Never have I
     stopped loving
you
  not once,
not
   ever.
