Him and the Other

Everytime I think about him
I get this funny feeling inside.
It's wonderful,
but at the same time,
it's painful.
I think I love him.
I really do.
And when I kiss him,
it feels like we are the only two
here in this world,
we share something special.
Thinking about him now
my heart is racing.
I'm excited, so captivated.
I've never really felt 
the way I feel about him before.
It's a good thing and a bad thing.
Oh how his love is so pure.
But right now in my life is another
He tells me everything I need to hear.
But still,
I feel nothing at all.
I like him, 
it's just not the same.
The one I love is different,
and my heart feels so much pain.

you don't just need to hear what you need, it needs to be felt so deep inside that you get those sensations you can't hide sounds like the other man in your life is more like a great friend you need to tell him before you grow to regret him for not being the one you want trust me I know it will happen please you have to be happy in order to live fully good luck and God Bless

Love is a mutual relationship , if the one you love doesn't care so drop it , and time will do everything, for sure you will find a better one who cares. " Any service any time"
