I hesitated,
So long
In loving you
Our relationship, disappeared
We drifted away from each other
As did the happiness,
That really never, appeared,
And it hurts, so much
To love you
To be without you!
Living in fear,
My life,
Like an empty sphere,
Turning, turning,
Turning,
Until it all, hurts
And almost disappears.
Forgive me,
For not telling you
All this before,
Rejection, pure and simple
Was what I feared, the most...
But I still love you,
Sadly,
Even, maybe more,
Than I did ever before.
(2) I cite your words: Forgive me, For not telling you All this before, Are the emotions of being left by the one you love, the same as " still loving him" ? Having kept all for yourself is not the ideal situation, methinks. I do respect highest your honesty in this ardent poem, dear Sandra. Thank you so much for sharing.
(1) This question comes up now: Why is this love not mutual anymore finally? The psychology learns us that a human being cannot accept being left alone, no matter what. But the greatest pity is that she has not told him before, perhaps IF she has told him about these all, he would never have left.
To be rejected is the worst feeling.. A loving person fails to accept not being wanted and continues to love. Blaming themselves, whereas it lies with the other person. Eventually, we all must move on accepting the rejection as not love at all. Loving another smothers lost love. That is why new relationships take place.
speaking from the heart is what poets do best it sounds good from the east as well as the west
