Still in tears

I knew it wasn’t right.
Personal values, societal values and all the works,
I didn’t let us grow.

We kept it platonic (difficultly so).
Our hearts wanted more.
Our heads knew better.
Only space and time can heal us.

I’m utmostly grateful for your THERENESS,
Your openness, your romance, your consistency and your maturity.

I did it for your clan, for my man for myself & for you.
When we meet in future, because  I'm sure we will,
We’ll catch up on our phases.
 I will miss you sorely.
 Still in tears.

So 'THERENESS' is so important in a relationship that you have to make it all CAPS? I'd have to work on that aspect of my life and relationships..
Pls savor the teary moment and let the tears flow till you're done :-)

You make me wanna write a poem

I'm sure thoughts of you have crossed my mind a gazillion times in the last 6 days I wonder why! When i met you i began to have a secret crush on you ( i wish i knew how successful i was at the 'secret' bit) then you fell in love. I managed myself & depreciated my crush back to platonic levels. We have done well as platonics and i have always imagined it to remain at that level. All of a sudden thoughts of you begin to flood my mind It scarces me I'm forced to put my thoughts on paper Logically, I dont want anything exceeding platonic levels because going by head sense, you dont strike me as my soul mate Yet, the thoughts keep coming, i dont know what to do with them. I wonder if thoughts of' 'us' have ever crossed your mind. Trust me, i wouldn't sacrifice our friendship for these temporal feelings of mine Hopefully, my soulmate will show up before any 'damage' is done. 'Jan '09
