point

How many times have I hurt you?

How many times have I made you smile"

We have the most unforgettable love,

created by our own immaturity

and pride.

I cannot count the times I have hurt you,

neither can I count the times I have made you smile.

the toes on my feet, and fingers in my hands are not enough

to count the times I have hurt and made you smile.

The relationship has been chaotic right from the start,

We were the best and the worst for each other.

But God knows,

we did love too much

that's why we were also hurt too much.

At this point,

I am still in the process of moving on,

that maybe time will be at my side,

to finally get on with my life completely.

I can relate to this and I am sorry you have to go through this, it is very hard to get over someone and move on, but trust me, you will. It just takes time! There is no way of knowing how long it will take, but it will get easier!

[sette]

i really hope so donna thanks for the kind words.

sometimes the hurting and fighting makes you stronger. someone said that to me recently, someone very special and I thought I had lost him. but sometimes you need the pain as much as the smiles, to grow
within reason of course... pain and hurt is normal, abuse is not

[sette]

totally true in time my friend i will be healed completely thanks for the encouragement and the kind words.

Losing someone is a good time to Find Yourself - maybe for the first time.
Once you do, you'll be irresistible, of course - maybe you've found yourself.
But this does not sound like one who's found.
Try going in - everything is inside you - Everything!

yes i haven't found myself yet, still on the process but still having difficulty. writing of poems gives me the chance to express what i really want said

[Jeremy]

This was really well written. It emanates feelings of loss and regret in a relationship, while also acknowledging happier times. Your words tell of experience and you're able to get your feelings across excellently. Great job!

[sette]

thanks jeremy for the kind review. looking forward to part 2 of your story

[Jimmy Yetts]

So many try to move on while they're actually quite immobilized.
Eventually--hopefully--real movement occurs.
A poem well conveyed!

the problem jimmy that i keep on asking is when?

[Ghost]

It seems that we all do this a little to much loving till we hurt one another to much... it is a something I believe we can all relate to.. I know I relate to it and I am sorry you hurt so much.. Nice write my friend

[sette]

interesting write,
perhaps you did love to much, or was it just lust. Either way, as in all life a balance must be maintained. See beyond what you think you feel to know it's truth.

[sette]

it was love my friend.. lust was just a part of it.. this was the most painful love i've had in my life.

[Lyrically Inclined]

Been there, but on the bright side, after we moved on we were able to be good friends. Nice write.

[sette]

i think in my situation if would be hard for us to become friends impossible to become good friends.. if you only know the whole story.. but anyway thanks for the wonderful review
