How Can You See Through Me?
How can you see through me
When you never look my way?
How do you breathe freely
When I'm holding mine all day?
When we are confused about love we should work to become more self aware. We can then look inwards to find answers. Every experience that we have is encoded in our brains. What is the purpose of filing away all that data? Although we are unaware of it, our subconscious dictates many important life decisions we make including who we choose to love. The subconscious has access to all our memories. Working to bring awareness to memories that are dictating our decisions, will help us make better choices about our relationships.
How can you see through me
When you never look my way?
How do you breathe freely
When I'm holding mine all day?

Just how much he means to me.

Please tell me something,
and do not lie.
Is something fading
between you and I?
I can surely relate to this poem and these were exactly the words I kept on asking myself before my ex-boyfriend and I broke up. I don't know where things went wrong or where the both of us...
Why do I stay when I want to go?
Is it because I have hope?
Or maybe it is because I don't want to be alone.
When I'm missing you,
I feel a million miles away.
I long for your touch.

The answer lies true in my heart,
So if I tell you, will you tear it apart?
Or will you keep it a secret so only you know?
Will you cover it up so it won't show?
I fell in love with this guy, but I'm afraid that he doesn't love me like I love him.
I wish you'd always love me the way you do in the winter,
When your heart is desperate for the warmth of my love
And you need my affection to melt the ice coursing through your veins.
When you need my smile to clear your foggy thoughts
I loved this dude so much, and I even told him, but I told him not to reply because I knew, and I still know, it's never going to work out between us. It's what it is, sad but true.
Just tell me you don’t love me;
I can live with that.
I can acknowledge an ending when I see a period
firmly in place,
I like this one very much. Holding on to false hope will lead to real hopelessness. It takes a special talent to recognize when it's time to let go, and it takes courage to do it.
