I dream of the day.

Even though you are gone, I can not let go.

I want you to hold me

To cage me in your arms

I want to hear your voice in my ears

To never have to be scared to hear silence

I dream of the day when I don’t have to want anymore

The day where I can know you’ll always be mine

But I know it’s a frivolous dream

Even though I may have thought we shared something

You’ve clearly let me know we hadn’t

You’ve taken away my hopes of ever being more

You took away the only thing I ever wanted

And I’ve been crushed over and over

Yet I continue to stand

Because all I can think

Is that you see my strength

That you see I can stand on my own

And maybe you’ll come back

Just for the opportunity to knock me back down

And just the thought of you coming back

Is enough to help me stand again.

The words were drenched in your emotion, I loved it. It is a very depressing peice though, read by the right person, it could be very uplifting. I, myself, have thought similar thoughts, until of course I came to my senses and realized, no matter how many times he comes back, he is still going to hurt me. But each time he hurts me, it hurts the ones closest to me twice as much. Keep that in mind next time you wish for his return...

It's amazing how much emotion you put into these words. I know exactly how you feel here, and it's not just because I can relate, it's because of how well you wrote this. :)

This is wonderfully written! I can just feel your longing. I hope you feel better someday. [:
