Hurt

When we met it was by chance 
An immediate connection
You saw me when I wasn't used to being seen
You made me feel like I was the only one in the room, though there was always a crowd
You made me love myself and you held my heart in your hands
I loved you unconditionally

You always said it wasn't wrong - that it was just the wrong time. 
Your life was complicated
I was willing to wait, but you wouldn't let me
She never loved you but would be part of your life forever
I watched her hurt you over and over again
I watched you watch her self destruct and it killed me

Years have passed
I haven't seen you in so very long
I would give anything to see you one more time
To laugh with you 
To study the lines around your eyes and kiss your lips
To feel your arms around me and believe in myself again

I think of you often
I miss everything about you
I hope you are happy - you deserve that
I worry that nobody else will ever make me feel the way you did
I'm scared that for the rest of my life i will wonder if I should have fought harder
I'm filled with a longing to see you again

I am filled with sadness so much of the time
I feel alone and scared 
My heart physically aches when I think of you
How can that be after so much time has passed?
Do you ever think of me?
Will it ever stop hurting like this?

It is hard to want to help someone be there for someone but realize that the person you are there for is not ready for the help yet and you can't force them no matter how much you want to. One day you will have someone to give your love to just hold on till then and don't lose yourself waiting on someone else

Poetry comes nearer to vital truth than history.

Plato (BC 427-BC 347) Greek philosopher.
