Things I Learned From You

I have learned so much from you-- I have learned that even with a broken heart time passes, I have learned even when you think tomorrow will never come-- the sun shines letting you know that even with a broken heart time passes- I have learned that private means private- I must hide things I want the world to know- I have learned that I forgive and move on even if I do so slow-- I have learned that my heart can be shattered and somehow still beat I have learned that when sorrow makes me sick to my stomach- something makes me eat! I have learned that perhaps it is best to move on from things left unspoken I have learned that it doesn't matter how much you love a person your heart can still be broken I have learned that doubt gives you ulcers and thoughts that push you to the brink I have learned that my heart shatters each time you walk away from me, What am I supposed to think? I have learned patience beyond my wildest dream I have learned that I am a lover- even if u think I am mean! I have learned that each hour can bring you to an all time low- I have learned that out of sight means out of mind also- I have learned that being alone sucks more then I ever knew I have learned that when it comes right down to what you feel for me-- I haven't got a Clue?? I have learned that maybe some things just aren't meant to be- I have learned that failure is not ever easy to see- I have learned to be independent- to pick myself up when I fall I have learned that the hours pass slowly when I am waiting for your call I have learned to just be-live for the moment- let go of sorrow- laugh more- quit worrying so much I have learned that my shattered heart is healed by your touch -- I have learned to never take a minute for granted to let go of things untrue and to love like there's no tomorrow these are things I have learned from you--
