I LOVE YOU.....BUT

I Love you....But

You
are not
more important
to me than I am to me
things you ask me
to do for you
what you ask me to accept
I just cannot
The winding roads
we traveled together
brought
both of us
so much excitement
so much laughter
and fun
I could be anything
or as much
as you wanted me to be
But I refuse to be
an afterthought
Consider my feelings,
please, Baby
Being the other woman
is hard enough
already
Don't treat me like a stranger
In her presence
When you can't see me
or be with me
Can you be kind enough
to call me
When you need me
to talk,
or whatever...
consider if I'm busy,
or not
I love you so much,
but we have to make
some changes
before we end up enemies
instead of souls destined to meet
or, people who just pass on the street
filled
with so much hatred
that we lose ourselves
I would rather work it out now
than live my life
having to remember
to be so cold
when you're around
or

when you really need me....
