Poetic Dreams - Other's Poems - Desperation - Without Destination - by: Pamela O'Brien - submitted: 11 October 2002

It's 12:00 at night,
And I've decided I can no longer hesitate,
To be standing on your doorstep,
Telling you that it must be fate.
I know that you are away right now,
You're working away from home,
I wish I would've said something more,
The last time we talked on the phone.
Sometimes I think it impossible,
To tell you those magic words,
Tell you that I miss your touch,
Tell you that it hurts.....
But it's 12:15 at night,
And worry is a wasted emotion,
And I've decided that despite what others might say,
So is my devotion.

it's time
Pam love isn't suppose to hurt.It's not a healthy relationship. Maybe it's time to get out .Easier said then done. I know.

To Barb
I am out of this relationship. Point is, I want back in.....although, like the poem says, I sometimes think my devotion is nothing but an excuse to feel sad. Thanks for caring :o)

naming it
When I wanted back in a unhealthy relationship, they called it a co-dependent relationship .That's why I wanted back not because I loved him. only at the time I didn't think people understood.I went back and a few months later he assaulted me. That woke me up. Don't want to have you get hurt.

Naming it....
Really? Co-dependence eh? I have another name for it. It's called UNCONDITIONAL LOVE. He wouldn't lay a hand on me, but he has emotional problems - thats why I broke it off. Now, all I want is to be there to help him, but I already screwed it up and its been too long to go back and ask if we can give it another chance. Besides, I don't think he ever knew I was there to begin with.
