Just saying your name makes me realize
how much meaning you add to my life.
I watch your actions every day
and long to hold and kiss you when I'm awake,
but reality dawns a rainy day,
a world of fantasy and dismay.

In my dreams I make you mine.
I hold you 'til the end of time,
but when I awake to find that you're not there,
my world is full of sorrow and despair,
and reality, like a rushing wind, destroys my hope,
my everything.

I have had true love and it is and was the best feeling and you are the happiest person in the world. I say love is the best drug and the best high. But the comedown/withdrawal is horrific. But once you have had true love you will always know what it is and if someone really loves you. Nobody should ever lie and tell someone they love you. Even if it's going to hurt someone's feelings you cannot lie about being in love if you aren't. That's the most evil thing to do. I am actually going through that situation right now and it is gut wrenching and life altering. Especially when they know you know they don't love you and still lie and say they are. Someone is doing this to me right now and I am going through an emotional rollercoaster and it's ruining me. Also I know this person doesn't love me and I don't know why I haven't left yet. I can't understand my self. I am miserable and I haven't left yet. Why am I doing this to myself? I can't explain it and I am going to have a mind snap.

Younger days, softer hearts, loving Eyes. You and I were so in love with each other. We wanted our love to last for eternity, but I left. I loved you childishly. I broke your heart so many times, to the point where you could let me go over and over again. I didn't intentionally want to leave you; I just did. You're my Leo, you're my king; you always have been. I have never stopped loving you. I have never stopped caring. I have never stopped thinking about you. I have never stopped hating myself for not being with you. I regret every day that we didn't share together as one, as soul mates, as what you wanted us to be. I saw you as being too young and not ready for a committed relationship, but I was so wrong. You were perfect, not a fault with you. Not one single thing could make me love you any less. I wish I could have seen that before. I broke your heart. Now you finally broke mine. Hold my heart forever. I don't need it until we become soul mates this time forever. Happy 23rd Birthday!
