  Very nicely said.

  However, I hope that it's just something that caught your eye and not a situation that you are in at the moment.

  This reminds me of my personal situation sometime back when I was involved with someone and it was an intense and so so wrong...

  Unfortunately it is my real situation. The better part of sixteen years is not an easy thing to give up on. It is hard to admit when you are truly done trying.

  THe years add up, they just fly by

  That pretty much sums it up. Its ironic that I came across your poem since I am going through a bad split after 11 years. Thank you for posting.

  I feel you on this. I love what you said and it hits home too well. I have not been happy for a few years now and just don't know how to continue. You have really nailed this one for me. He asks me if I am happy or what would make me happy...I can not give him an answer.

  Whoever you are thanks for the poem, i was with my boyfriend for eleven

  years putting up with his cheating and liying habits thinking he loved me and that at some point he would changed for me, he never did and now he just can't believe my love for him is gone. What would it take to make me smile? he always asked knowing that his actions were the reason

  for me to be sad and stop smiling..
