A Lover's Story
By Trish

DISCLAIMER: They don't really have names, but anyone can see who they really are. They belong to Joss and so does the underlying story behind the poem. This is basically "her" feelings on what has happened since she has known "him". So please don't sue me, I'm just a college student. I wrote this on a whim while listening to the radio one Sunday morning.

The first time I saw you you scared me,
You came out of nowhere to warn me.

The second time I saw you,
I still didn't like you.

You came out of the darkness with a mystery,
And no one had the key.

I couldn't believe who or what you were,
I was sworn to kill your kind til there was no more.

After a while, you grew on me,
The next thing I knew, we were kissing under an oak tree.

I loved you with all my heart,
It nearly killed me when we had to part.

I cried over you and what I had done,
The only thing I could think of to help me cope, was to run.

Then, one day you came back,
I was so happy, I almost cracked.

At first, we were just friends,
I knew my heart would never mend.

I needed you with me in every way,
I had to see you everyday.

It tore my friends apart because I had lied,
They all thought that you had died.

What can I say?
Except, "I love you still on this very day."

I need you in my life again,
And when you're not...I can't go on.

Now that we're finally back together,
I'm sure that we will love each other forever.

I only wish I could be your wife,
But then you had to go and hurt me and take away all the spark from my life.

I never thought I could feel that much pain,
And it hurt like Hell, especially when standing in the rain.

You walked away from me and our life,
I know now, I'll never get to be your wife.

You walked away and never looked back,
When I needed you the most and you left me flat.

You told me, "It was better this way,"
But how can that be, when my heart is breaking every minute of every day.

A lot of time as passed since that heart-breaking night,
And til this very day, I wish you would come back and hold me tight.

A love like ours could never die,
And if I said, "I was over you," it'd be a lie.

I still wish I could be your wife,
We would have such a great life.

I would tell you on our wedding day,
"That I would love you always and forever and that you are in my heart and soul every day."

Then you would turn to me and say,
"I love you always and I need you each and every day."

Then we would kiss,
And be in wedded bliss.

But, you see, this will never be,
At least not today anyway, but hopefully someday.

A girl can only wish,
For that one fateful kiss.

For what she knows in her heart,
Will always be true and never tear it apart.

I gave mine to you...on a silver platter,
And you broke it...like it didn't matter.

I know you still love me,
And our love will last forever and an eternity.

I continuously dream every night,
That you will come back and make it right.

Our love will never die,
I know it because my heart would never lie.

So, until you come back to me,
I'll just be....
