Array ( [sid] => 7069 [catid] => 1 [aid] => Mick [title] => Afraid To Love Again [time] => 2002-11-20 08:00:00 [hometext] => This one is about how all the thing that I have been through in my relationship with men has affected me. [bodytext] => Every time I've loved before
The person I've loved, has left me wanting more
Every time I've loved, it's been thrown back in my face
It wasn't ever done with style, nor grace
Whenever I've loved someone I've been hurt
It seemed, they could hurt me with very little effort
Now I'm afraid to love again
I fear putting my feeling out there again
So, here I sit afraid to take a chance
If I keep waiting I'm never going to get my romance
Perhaps, I should just throw caution to the wind
And let go of my emotional whirlwind
I should just over come my fear
But that's not as easy as it may appear
Of my fear, I'll do my best to let go
But I got this fear a long time ago
The guys in my past destroyed my confidence
I had quite a lot of confidence, once
It has taken me so long to once again trust men
Because of all this, I'm afraid to love again [comments] => 15 [counter] => 582 [topic] => 25 [informant] => ShadowsCloud [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 21 [ratings] => 5 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => MiscPoems )

I totally agree..it seems the ones you love so much are the ones that can make you feel the worst.
Awesome poem!

This I like Candice,
because I can also relate to the way you've expressed your feeling of going round and round in circles and never finding what you do deserve out of a loving relationship!
If you find what it is that brings you back your confidence, please let me in on what seems to be a secret for only others to keep!
Well written again Candice.

With love
Dean:-)

Dean, I am glad that you like it. Of course I will let you know what brings back my confidence, if I ever get it back that is. I hope I do.

Dean, I would not forget you when I do, that would be rather rude. And I am not the type to be rude to any one, even those who deserve it. And you do not deserve it.

Dean, I have been trying not to doubt myself for a while now. It is really rather hard not to, but I am going to continue to try.
