Retrospect

You're all I wanted, but nothing I need These present thoughts, should my own advice I heed? Why do I try so hard for something that causes so much pain Is it easier to suffer or to simply refrain? I've sat too long at this stand-still Emotions piled up like a land-fill Constantly questioning why or how I'm leaving it all in God's hands now It will be easier for me to get over you Easier for you not to feel so bad Why try when there's no use trying to Pretend something serious was what we had.

Unique portrait of a common emotion. Sometimes it seems easy to refrain until that spark ignites it all over again. I especially like the stand-still , land-fill rhyme
