A poem to the one who got away. Chelsea, you will always hold a place dear in my heart.

   Every day that I realize I've lost you my heart grows heavier. I try and suppress your beautiful smile but the image still lingers.

   I wish with every morsal of my being, that I could just hold you. But its too late, your hearts moved on and I'm the one stuck here hurting.

   We gave one another two years, and didn't think to look back. Now I need you more then ever but your feelings towards me are pitch black.

   I have only myself to blame, I could'nt find it in my heart to forgive you, but if I could chose now, I would let you know how much I truly miss you.

   My eyes swell with tears and my mind races through our created memories, I feel it, deep in my soul, an overwhelming misery.

   Why do the ones we love always end up hurting us? No one ever told me "love is an emotion unheard of".

   I know now, what it means to never want another, even if the love of my life has found another lover...

Very much based off of true events.

Very sad, heartfelt and tragic. But most importantly it read authentic and true as if based on true events.

This was a Beautifl and very Heart-Felt Poem. I feel great Sympathy for the fact that You are in this situation. I will try to give You one imprtant saying that I have so often heard. It says if you set the Love of your Life free, and they end up coming back to You, then it was Meant to Be. Heartache is very difficult.Give it Time, and things will Clarify for You. You are a Great Writer.
