I have a little secret
That I wish to share
And one day I hope to tell you
Instead of talking to the air
But right now the time is horrible
You wouldn't know that it's me
But I've cried many a time over you
I just never let you know or see
I've tried my best to be strong
And remove you from my mind
But it just brings the pain faster
And increases it each time.
So now I think of you every day
And what I hope I meant to you
It would be so much easer to make it
To know if you think of me too
I'm not going to say that I hate you
Because I still love you with all my heart.
But I do hope you feel the pain you gave me
When you tore such a treasure apart
I'm not saying I wish I never met you
Or that for you I'd never fell
Because I'd rather loved and lost
If I hadn't my life would still be a living hell
You would probably find my words surprising
Because the intensity for you I dared not show
We didn't say much about our feelings
And I didn't know how you would feel to know
But now I wish I'd spoke every word
It wouldn't be so hard now
Maybe remembering how good it felt to be with you
Would be easier for my heart to allow
But no matter how much I want to
I cannot change the past
But believe me if I could
I would do so all to fast
I miss every word spoke
And every touch shared
And I'll never forget the night
When the flame first flared
You can ask anyone around me
If you made a huge difference in my life
They'll all reply yes and tell you that now
I walk around like my heart's been stabbed with a knife
And it's the truth
I've changed since you left
But it's like my life left with you
And it stole my happiness in theft
You really were the best thing to happen
To me since birth
But now I live without
My heaven on earth
I wonder what you would think
If I told you this to your face
But at this point I don't care
As long as it makes up for the pain
I don't say this to sound heartless
But in a way I guess it's true
I hope what you did was worth it
I wish for the best for you
I know that I sound crazy
By saying I'm still in love too
But if feeling so strongly is a crime
Then I'm as guilty as you

Poetry: Wasted time
We are in a now time.
0 to 60 pressed back against the seat.
60 to 0 nose flat against the glass.
Did that happen?
Was it real?
Count the grains of sand on a beach
Climb every mountain within your reach
Peel the petals off all kinds of flowers
Do these
They lived in oldish Soviet times
With Stalin's rules on their mind,
Involved in building communism,
Accepting no

Wasted time
In the bin
Of eyes
Looking for
Car keys
Lost by a
Disorganized
Land mine
Or man mind
Keeping the
Wedding reception
Waiting

Tick, tock, tick, tock
How do I make the ticking stop?
There aren't enough hours in the day
Most of them spent dreaming away
