I know what it means, what it feels like, how it happens.
I've waited to understand it all.
and now that finally I do,
now that I know what it's like to have a part of your soul with someone else,
I'm pretty sure I can't stand it.
I can't stand the waiting, the frustration, or the paranoia.
The only solution is to give up. Move on.
It might help if i knew how...

Favorite Quote:
Nobody ever dies, because they will live inside of everyone they ever touched, no matter how little, and the people who love them, their family, and friends. They&rsquo;re never going to stop thinking about them, or talking about them. They&rsquo;re never going to forget you because that never goes away. They will never die they were loved and they loved, they will live forever. We all will.

From me: &quot;The Point of writing isn&#039;t so others can understand what&#039;s going on in your mind. It&#039;s so you can understand what&#039;s going on inside yourself.&quot;<br /> <br /> By me: &quot;Who needs you when I have these yellow lines on this road?&quot;

I really love this poem because I think that everyone can relate to feeling as though they need to move on, but that they arent quite sure how. Brava! Very well written and very full of passion!

If I were you I&#039;d promise to live life for all it&#039;s worth, take all you&#039;ve been given and leave your mark upon this Earth. Trust your heart to show you everything you need...and if you were you, I&#039;d fall in love with me. -unknown<br /> <br /> <br /> fear not, for I am with you;<br /> <br /> <br /> be not dismayed, for I am your God;<br /> <br /> I will strengthen you, I will help you,<br /> <br /> <br /> I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.<br /> (Isaiah 41:10 ESV)

I like it...and i can really relate...i've had my heart riped away from me...but not in the way a man loves a women, more in the way you love your sister or your best friend.
