Never Say Goodbye.......(T. Mcrae)

Rating: 5.0


I’ve been looking for a reason for us to have fallen out,
a reason for you to be so evasive and
act different ever since I confided in you and
told you a few intimate things. I didn’t scare you off, did I?

I don’t think I said anything that might have
offended or hurt you in any way.
This is a very awkward and uncomfortable situation;
I care a lot about you and yet when we meet
we don’t even get together
to talk anymore… it feels so strange!

The time I wanted to say goodbye,
You said, never say goodbye to me
You said you'd always love me.
Always we'd be friends.
But soon I saw you wanted nothing of me,
and then I understood that's how it ends.
You said, 'Well, it's much harder than I thought.'
I guess it's always easier to lie.

I’ve tried to find out why and to analyse
what could have made us grow apart but
I couldn’t find any plausible reason.
In the beginning, when I told you about my dream,
My secret wish, you seemed interested and wanting to be part of it;
but then you backed up and now you treat me with such
indifference that it makes me feel uncomfortable.

You said, 'Well, ask me anything you want.'
But I was much too frightened to ask why.
I guess it doesn't matter why we failed,
or why I love you after what you've done,
or why the harshest truths must be unveiled
after the last train has come and gone.
I miss you and I love you, even though
what happened lies too deep for me to know.

He should be amazed in your relationship. Because it is a dream to be with you. He should be glad that you have come together to share what you had both been missing for way too long. He should not say those very uncomfortable words to you, He should love you more for making him feel that he is the most important person on earth. It is the most wonderful feeling in the world to feel the love that you cherish. If ever that I'm in his position I will be there for you & I will be the last person you will see as you close your eyes eternally.... God blesses his miracles to you always!

I agree with Maris Lane. Love is not love when it hesitates at hurdles or stumbles at the very first stumbling block. Love is patient, love bears it out till the very end, endures and bears all things. Love never fails. If it is love, it will never fail. To love is to give and share and not to look at physical appearances or differences. Love is of the mind - and of the heart. when two minds think alike, love is born and as long as there are minds, there will be love.

Love is not something you can just turn on and off, it perseveres for a reason... We can not turn off the love we feel for another.Love can never be forced, it can only be unconditional. If two believe in love and they share that love are they not in love? When love does not work out between people, it is not loves fault.Let go of the pain and find a new tomorrow! Our evolution is spiritual in nature...Come tomorrow, I will still be stuck with these memories.In sad times be thankful life is not forever. In happy times, don't think about how short life is! he did not deserve your friendship...for he is a man with lying tounge.
