You Never Felt the Same Way

I sit here, 
I read your words,
I cry.

You sit there,
You write those words,
You don't cry.

I'm lost without you,
I'm nothing without you,
I'm alone without you.

You're not lost without me,
You're somthing without me,
You're not alone without me.

Everything I am, you are not,
Everything I was, you were not,
Everything I am going to be, you are not.

How sad it is when we realize we had stronger feelings for someone than they had for us. But I really like the last verse because it shows you are capable of deeper emotion and have great strength. If this really happened to you, I hope you recover quickly from this encounter! Love, Carolyn
