With My Heart Broken and Soul Tore

For hours, I lie awake in my lonely bed
And even though I want sleep to so desperately come, thoughts of you cloud my head
I let go of you before, but now I can no longer pretend
These feelings and overwhelming emotions are not going to soon end
But you have to do what you feel you must for your own peace of mind
And I'm the one here still waiting on the side lines
While passing right on by me is nothing but sweet time
I know that I need to see you again, but sometimes on that decision to face you, I find 
myself lost
But you need to know if I did travel to see you, I would never step over any lines or 
boundaries you didn't want crossed
Because losing you from my life in any way, for me, is just way to high of a cost
I always dream about you holding me once more
And me kissing you so tender as we did before
Laying the other down surcoming to those pleasures of love while our hearts soar
Your soft yet commanding touch
That sexy but domineering voice I long to hear so much
But between you and me it's always been so much more than making love and such
It's the deep inner connection we both so strongly feel
That knowing that the emotions coursing through our veins is so intensely real
And together our hearts can finally heal
You're so deep inside my soul
Over your memory and our moments I have no kind of control
I know with each other, we both could be happy again and finally whole
We both have taken and given far too many rides on endless troubled shores
However we now have the chance to finally stop our own personal wars
Let me in and open again your sincerity that is found behind that closed hearts door
I'm here the one for you
I'm the only who very rarely made you blue
To each other our hearts and souls were always true
I'm still holding in my hands your hearts key
You still hold one in your hands to, the one for me
I hope, dream, pray, and wish on every star that someday soon we can together see
Those horizons we, on our own, have expanded and explored
Only then to find our way back again to love each other more
But I will keep waiting here for you with my heart broken and my soul tore

Sandy this is so touching and painful to read. My heart breaks forlyou. I wish you could just let go and move on. Its like watching someone being tortured. I trust lyou know what is best for lyou and your feelings but it is so difficult to watch from the outside as your going through this intense pain. I life you get what you choose. Choose something better please. You will feel better and you will renew your spirit. Why isnt this guy stepped up to the plate for you? Get some resolve from him.
