Wasting
Current mood: savage
Category: Romance and Relationships
Wasting away on promises lost. I am too tired to care. Words are meaningless when they are used as a smoke screen. I waste away waiting for moments that never come. Heart wrenching seconds that stretch into a lifetime of memories. Actions that do not match the rules of the game. I am tired of playing with a busted hand. I should fold but continue to bet the shattered pieces of my heart. I play with another that cheats at the cards. I am going to lose but the gamble will pay off. I lie to myself and hope for a miracle that I know will never come. The waiting is endless and tears at the fibers of my soul. Wearing me down until I am waiting to die from the confusion. Hatred for each breath, each heartbeat burns as the flame of my existence. Questions answered with indifference and humor. Never given a chance to build a solid base. Wanting the violence of the end. I fear to walk to the edge of the cliff and leap. I wait and waste away with the slow-burning pain. The hands that push me kicking and screaming are attached to the one that I hoped would love me. A blinding anger builds and rises until I fear my demise. I hope will come sooner rather than later. Thrown onto the razor’s edge by a cancer-ridden ghost of a past I had hoped would be better forgotten. Games being played and I am the pawn, the one that is taken out first without hesitation by the victor. Shall I tell the king he has won as I breathe my last?
The poem is about the way I feel about the situation with the relationship that I am ending. There is a background history here. Lighthealer stated it best, the issue lies with me. He has an ex-girlfriend that is living with him that has cancer. It has been going on for the past 2 1/2 months that she has been living there. His whole behaviour has changed and I understand that I need to face the reality of losing what I truly loved. I craved the affection that he brought in rarely. Light, you understand what I am saying. You are right, I should have said affection. I wrote this because the hurt and pain was overwhelming my life and I had to get it out on paper or on screen. I wrote this to heal myself a little. Get the anger and with a keyboard, cut it out. I wield a pen far better than I do my heart.
All my love,
Rashell

My husband and I have been having maritial problems lately and a few weeks ago it got so serious that he decided he wanted a divorce. To make a long story short he recently has noticed a change in me and can’t decide if he wants to stay or go. I am trying so hard to work on myself and show the love that he deserves. He lost trust in me over the past year or so because he feels like I wasn’t giving him the love he needs and thus he fell out of love with me. I know it is possible to fall in love again with the same person but I need some ideas that I can use to get the spark back. He is a very negative person in general and says that he expects negative things to happen so I know it is going to be really hard to help him feel in love with me again. He also says that he doesn’t know how long I can keep it up… What are some more things I can do or say to help reignite the flame? We are still intimate.. but he has trouble kissing me on the lips or recieving kisses from me.
Sorry to be so vauge I just know people don’t like to read and read and read, anyway what I mean by changed is that I am being more loving, kind, friendly, considerate, and I have been doing a lot of reading about love and what it is. I am young so I thought that love never went away… he is not cheating I am almost possitive about that so anyone with good advice?

We have been off and on since 2004. I call him my knight in shining armor because he removed me from a bad relationship. We were inseperable for the 4 months of our “relationship”…during those months he lost his job. Me…I was a single mom, working full time and also attending college full time..all while starting a new relationship. Him being a man, felt that he should be doing more…considering all that i had on my plate. We spent Thanksgiving together…2 days later he told me he joined the army and was leaving in a week…talk about blown away…after my intial shock..we decided to do the long distance thing….the day he left right before he was to board his flight to Fort something in NC, he told me he loved me for the first time….I cried…..days went past..then i finally heard from him…..a few months later he told me he was being deployed to iraq…shell shocked again..i decided to stick by him….that is when we lost contact…2005 rolls around..and I am lost..don’t know if this guy is dead or alive….around Nov. 2005..I started seeing missed calls on my caller ID from the us army…and every time I always missed the call..either by a minute or something strange…for months….

April 2nd 2006…i arrived home…and i see a missed call from someone with the same last name as him..my heart starts racing and i get nervous…I call the number back and ask for him. the stranger that answered the phone introduced himself as his uncle..he asked my name and told me to hold on…I immediately hung up..taken over by nerves…was this really my lover boy trying to contact me all this time and i missed the calls..all of them?…my cell phone rings..a 910 number…its him…we talk….rekindle the flame…..by august 2006 we loose contact again….from Sept 06 to Nov 06 he would send me messages here and there via AIM….at this point i am frustrated with this off and on mess but still loving him…

In Feb. 2007 he called me and we were on the phone for hours..I was telling him about my new place, new car, new job..he told me he was proud of me and that he wanted me to help him get a job in NYC….he were vibing….and then the phone went dead…no call back..no more contact….a few days later i deleted the number that he called me from out of frustration and anger because he had not called me back…..and that was the last time i spoke to him….and i still really truely..deeply..love him.

I know ppl are gonna have some mean things to say cause I know what I did was horrible, but I honestly love my husband and want him back. I cheated once and told him the very next day cause I couldn’t live with the lie. It was with an old flame that I hadn’t seen in several years. I just got caught up in the moment. It was nice to feel wanted and not just like a wife and mom for awhile. Now I would give anything to feel like that wife amd mom again. My husband moved out and is now living back with his mom ((who tells him if he comes back she’s done with him)) We still talk and he says he loves me, but can’t come home right now. He wants space, but I am just afraid space will make it worse. Not to mention that i am gonna loose our house and everything else soon cause I can’t make it alone. Then what to we do if he deciedes he wants to come back. I dunno I am just so mad at myself and hate what i did to our family.

Are you still holding a candle for your ex, telling your friends and family ‘I lost the love of my life‘? If that sounds like you then there might still be hope to get your relationship back. There are some things anyone can do to make an ex fall madly in love with you all over again. You really can rekindle that old flame.

The first thing you need to think about is what might have gone wrong. Stop worrying about telling people ‘I lost love’ and think about what positive steps you can take instead. When you can identify what you think went wrong in the relationship, you’re in a good position to begin working on tactics to rectify it and then put some things in place to get your relationship back.

All relationships begin filled with excitement and adrenaline. You both want to please the other person, so you make a big effort to look good and say the right things. You both enjoy each others company, because you’re both trying really hard to be enjoyable.

At this point most relationships move into a comfortable phase, where you both feel a little more relaxed. This is the phase where many relationships break up and it can take anywhere from a month to a year to reach this point, and even longer with other people.

Unfortunately, some women misread the signals from their man. They think his comfortable phase means he’s pulling away. Most women’s first instinct is to try hard to bring him closer again. The usual tactic they try is to cling tighter to him, wanting to see him more often and wanting him to reassure her that he’s not leaving.

The reality is men view these tactics as desperation and neediness, which makes them pull away. When their fun-loving, happy girlfriends begin these frantic efforts to cling to them, men feel as though they’ve lost the girl they fell in love with. Instead, they have a stranger who is making him feel as though he can’t do anything right. This is the main reason why men begin to pull away from their girlfriends.

By taking a bit of time out after a break up and working on finding your own confidence again means that you’ll realize you have the power to make yourself happy. You can pursue interests that please you or hang out with friends who make you feel good. These activities should also help you to realize that you don’t need your ex to make you feel happy. You can do that yourself.

With your new self-confidence and positive attitude, you’re in a much better position to call your ex and suggest getting together for a friendly chat over a cup of coffee. Let him see that you’ve found that happy, confident girl he fell in love with and his feelings will come rushing back. Remember, in the beginning of your relationship, it was the happy, easy going version of you that he fell in love with.

No relationship is perfect and of course you’ll have moments where things aren’t so perfect, but by making sure you both enjoy the time you spend with each other, you’ll be less likely to be telling people ‘I lost love‘ and more likely to tell people ‘I found the love of my life’.
