You Said Never

By: Pamela J. McConnell

For the longest time I was comfortably numb. I didn’t go out much and wasn’t having any fun. I kept my heart tucked safely away, my feelings
I kept under control my loneliness being my only toll .

I was so happy after meeting you. A friend with the kind of smile that can turn a gray sky blue. Feeling you were God’s answer to my prayer. I dared to start having thoughts of you always being there. It wasn’t as hard to look forward to forever.
But Then You Said Never


My bitterest tears couldn’t wash your cruel words away. Words that continue to haunt me each and every day. Since that moment I’ve tried to let go, but still my feelings for you continue to grow.


At times you’ve made me happy, you’ve made me sad. You’ve made me angry, you’ve even made me mad, but above all you’ve shown me the best time with a person I have ever had.

But Then You Said Never

You made me a promise that very night. That my feelings for you weren’t real, and would soon die away and I would be alright. But still they linger no matter how hard I fight, taking over my every thought both day and night.

I’ve tried looking toward a few others, but found I was just using them to help me cover. What I know now more then ever is true. I can say Never too. I will never love another as I loved you.
