doyathink Posted April 13, 2007 Share Posted April 13, 2007 You were only meant to be mine for a little while. Like sands through the hour glass, Time never sits still, it goes so fast. You came to me in the spring one day But your love must have faded You wouldn’t stay. I loved you more then life itself, Nothing on earth could have tore me away But you put my love to the back of the shelf. I’ve never known love for a man, the way I did you, I’m sure you’ll find others That will love you….this way too. Today I sit crying, nothing but pain You left me dying, Alone in the black rain.

Ellie2006 Posted April 13, 2007 Share Posted April 13, 2007 Very moving, DYT ... I wish I had prettier words to comfort you right now ... But all I can do is sit here next to you, in the rain, holding an umbrella over you, hoping you'll feel better soon ... Hugs, Ellie Link to comment

CarnelianButterfly Posted April 13, 2007 Share Posted April 13, 2007 I feel your pain. Especially the idea of being put to the back of the shelf. That to me was hurtful, the idea someone would put you somewhere so they could forget. Very poignant. Link to comment
