How Long

I like this guy.

I mean... I really like this guy.

But how long can a person like someone that they know they can't have?

It's simply insane.

I don't understand it.



I mean, there's a war going on inside me.

One side is telling me to get over him... to move on.

I think it's winning.

Then, there's the opposite side that says to wait it out.

"If you care about him that much... you can withstand the pain."



I don't know if I can anymore though.

I'm tired of crying.

I'm sick of ripping my heart out just to have it thrown back at me.

I won't let my life be torn apart because of my emotions.



I have the world at my feet.

Why should I put it on hold just because of him?


Author's Notes/Comments: 

Wow... life definitly throws for a loop sometimes. All we can do is follow the path that was laid before us. If you go the wrong way... listen to your heart. It'll guide you back, just don't get blinded by love. It's a temptation that we all must deal with.
