I HATE THAT I'VE LOVED YOU

I HATE THAT I'VE LOVED YOU

I fear that I've loved you
And finding a replacement for you won't be possible.
I miss you so much that as I write this,
I am overwhelmed by desperation and sorrow...
But someday I will not only miss you,
But also would have lost you for an eternity.

I hate it that sometimes you won't be there,
When I need your touches, your cuddles, your kisses,
I fear that not all times will I boil with passion at the site of you,
And have to sip on the warmth of your essence alone,
Like now.

I hate that your breath has become a breeze to me,
That I can't breath until you breath sweet words into my ear,
I fear that someday this loneliness will become demise.

I fear that some day,
Someday I'll have to live a life without you,
After leaving the life with you,
I fear that I will never find a replacement for you,
I neither will I ever find a replacement for the love I had for you.

I love you so much,
I love you more than words can explain.

This is so painful to imagine. Your words are heartfelt, I feel the sorrow too. I absolutely love this piece. It just perfectly carries the emotion and creates vivid imagery of undying love. I relate so much to your words. Thank you for sharing this and I hope you have a lovely day.
