my notions?, by Brenda
|
there was a time when the first thing i thought of was HER.
there was a time when every song on the radio was
dedicated to HER.
there was a time when i would have died for HER and
answered everything she asked of me... i was willing to go
that far.
things have changed.... and i have moved on.
i realize i don't need to be stuck in the past... dwelling
in my "what ifs" are holding me back to find someone
better. what i want now is to think whithout thinking of
HER, to sleep and not dream of HER, to breathe and the
reason not be her HER. i don't need HER. i don't need
these feelings for HER. and i will move on... i have moved
on.
things have changed. it still hurts... she didn't choose
me, but even if she could she wouldn't. so i don't have
her, but i have her. she is still my bestfriend, and
although we no longer talk like we use to and we no longer
laugh like we use to... we will remain friends, untill the
time comes to say good-bye.
it is funny, now that i think about it, now that i see
what others see, now that i have come a step closer to
finding the real me.... how my love for her has changed. i
am honestly glad it has changed. yes... i do wish that i
had never said anything and if i could take everything
back... i would. not because it would ease my pain but
because i would be able to keep what we had then and have
somehow managed to loose now.... our talks, our laughs,
our silent moments, our afternoon naps, our comfort of
being there for eachother and not feeling that it is
ackward.... we lost the "best" in bestfriends. or did we?
maybe it is just to soon to say... maybe we are just tired
and no longer know what to say... maybe things have
changed. a break is what is needed.
i have moved on... moved on to find someone who can
probably care for me as i do them... maybe they are not in
my life at the moment... maybe they are someone in the
past.... but at this very moment i am happy (sort of)
where i am at. i hate stand stills... and i have created
one by devoting my heart to one who does not return
hers... and so i take mine back and will move this part of
my world that had stopped turning for so long. no more
questions... no more dwelling... no more hopeing and
wishing that one day she will feel the same... it is
apparent she never will.
you say you understand my notions?
you cann't, because they are just that... MY notions.
but thanks for tring to see, for trying to understand, for
being there for me.... but you have won a game that never
even existed... your prize is SHE.
but wait... i do have two questions her HER.
why did you have to poke and not just let it be?
did you ever or could you ever feel the same for me?
