Jake

He just doesn't get it. He is so mad at her that he won't even think about what she is going through.

Jake,
I am so sorry
That this had to happen

I never planned for things to end this way
I never wanted to lose you
Or even hurt you

Jake,
Please don't be mad
I can't stand you being hurt
It just kills me inside

I know you love me
And you can't get past the memories
Of us together

But Jake,
I don't love you the way I used to
The fire that we shared
Burned out

You were my best friend
And at one time my boyfriend
But now were nothing

Jake,
I am sorry you have to go through this
I know its not easy for you
But what makes you think its any easier for me

Everyday I go on loving someone else
And you continue to keep on loving me
Each and every day

Jake,
You keep saying you hate me
And that you should just get out of my life
But I don't want that

You and I both know that we cant leave each other
Its just not possible to just say goodbye
We share too many memories

Jake,
I am sorry for what is happening
But someday I hope you will understand
That what I am going through is not so easy either

I hope one day
You will be able to find someone to love
Just like I have
......

[Luna Northstar]

Nice job, great write!

[PaperHearts]

Aww, this was a great write. The emotion was so powerful and so heartfelt, and I could feel the tension and struggle within your words. The personalised use of his name was really effective in capturing this sentiment as well. Good work,

Good piece, bad situation.

[Havatara]

Crappy times. But you'll get through it. Anyway, you keep forgetting apostrophes and it's kinda starting to annoy me. Still a good poem.

s****y situation.

[Emily]

Another extremely hard situation to be in. But you have to realize too that if you stayed in a relationship with 'jake' you wouldn't be being true to yourself and in the end would hurt him more than being honest and telling him the truth. It is a hard thing to do, to be loved by someone you've been close to -- but to not be in love with them...

This piece is very emotional and you've done a great job of making it hit the paper with emotion and sorrow.
