The Other Side

Contributed by MisterRight on Saturday, 2nd November 2002 @ 07:30:00 PM in AEST
Topic: MiscPoems



Its the way he makes me feel.
He offers the love Ive dreamed for.
But the fear is still here.
Its why I always shut the door.
He always speaks of forever,
But will it last so long?
What if I stop holding us back,
And he realizes he was wrong?
The way that he loves me,
The way he tells me he feels.
Almost seems too good to be true,
How can it possibly be real?
How can he say hell love me forever?
How can he know I am the one?
Maybe hell decide Im not what he wants,
If I give us the chance, once weve begun.
If I choose to be with him,
I have to give up what Ive got.
It may not be all Ive longed for,
But Ive invested an awful lot.
Is it really worth the risk,
For me to chase this dream?
Because theres no going back,
If it isnt what it seems.
I search for an answer.
But the answer I cant find.
And every time a decision is close,
The doubts always fill my mind.
Maybe Ill put this decision off,
Just for one more day.
But when the next day arrives,
My confusion hasnt gone away.
Yet hes waited for me patiently,
For well over a year.
And the love he shows remains the same,
Even through the heartache and the tears.
Should I take that as a sign,
To tell me his devotion is true?
Im so scared Ill have regrets,
I dont know what to do.
Im afraid hell be like the rest,
Once he hears the words, Im yours.
But every time he kisses me,
My heart suddenly races and soars.
There are times I picture us together,
And I like the vision I see.
But if we really were a couple,
Would he soon get tired of me?
If I decided to let this happen,
So much in my life would change.
And if by chance it didnt work out,
Im not sure I could handle the pain.
He tells me hell never let me fall.
And hell never leave my side.
His promises, so hard to believe,
But I see no doubt behind his eyes.
He rarely lets a day slip by,
Without telling me how he cares.
And hes the only one Ive known,
Who can say I love you with a glare.
But then theres the other one,
Who Ive given four years of mine.
I care for him and its hard to let go,
Ive tried so many times.
Weve been through so much together,
But for some time things havent run smooth.
After so much time with someone,
Should I really be confused?
The fears come at me from both sides,
Either way I choose.
Im so afraid Ill decide wrong,
And Ill be the one to lose.

Interesting write, I wonder if you hit the mark. I think if you don't know if you want to be with someone after 4 years that should answer the question. After that much time you know or you don't and if you don't, move on.

Love is an uncertainty everday. Follow your heart and do what is best for you. Life is too short to live in unhappiness. Great write...very emotional and i can feel you pain. Larry :o)

Bravo, and I see that Erika enjoyed it as well... I didn't read the beginning quote on this and I thought I had just ventured into her site instead of yours... but then I read the top part about the forum and I figured it out (oops). Great write! I agree with everyone on here... A+ for this one!
