Why is it wrong?

Is it so wrong
to want to be loved?
To want to be held?
To want to hear no lies?
To only want the
sun to set when
it has to?

All you guys are the same
Say anything to get what
you want, what you need

Well, guess what
Mr. Cheater
I'm not coming back
so, stay on your knees
until you bleed and after

Cause hell will freeze solid
before I ever let you up
off your bloody knees
You broke my pride
my respect even my innocence

Mr. Cheater or better known as
Mr. Dylan
stay  the hell
away from me
or there will
be a great need
for testical reconstruction

Alana,

It looks like it's time to take a break from these two-timing boys. Have some Alana-time. Love yourself and know that you are loved by those who matter! "Never allow someone to be your priority while allowing yourself to be their option." Alana should come first. If a guy happens to be a part of your life, then he better be grateful and loyal, but if they're not going to treat you right then don't let them be a part of your life. You can't let them be a need. You have to be able to be independent and you can't let them break you down. They're stupid and greedy and not worth your suffering! Will come back with a critique tomorrow, got to go to bed! Kelsey

stupid men! lol!

sounds like you still think about him a bit. hate and anger are as strong emotionally as love and affection. and having any emotions about someone is still being emotionally connected. but still, what a douche this dylan is. t_f

Angry rant

Alice, angry rant and he probably deserves it all, but hey, don't tar all us lads with the same brush: All you guys are the same Say anything to get what you want, what you need I am sure they aren't all the same...I'll be off trying to find one who isn't...I could be some time! Lol! I hope the writing made you feel somewhat calmer regards, HS (holding tightly to his testicles) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "With all that I am and all that I could be, I walk this earth and yet nobody sees me".

Irish Eyes

give him one last little tear. Then stand up tall. You deserve better than him. There are a few good men out there. If I was younger and not hopelessly in love already. My Irish blood would would be boiling for a fine Irish lass like you. Take Care. huey
