Its not quite love
By Lylani
Its not quite love
But its enough
enough to cut the stitches
that hold my sanity in place
To let me bleed for you
long for you
It's enough to make me scream
My breaking heart
Into the darkest depths of night
And see only black
where stars once shone
Its not quite love
So I won't tell you
I miss you
And I won't make you choose
between me
and your new angel
I know she's better for you
She'll tell you
She loves you
You won't be left
to guess
It's not quite Love
it's just jealousy
no... I won't let it be love

I counter with the fact that an open wound is treatable, and will heal faster with the application of a soothing balm. The internal hurt, however, though maybe lesser, lasts longer, destroying rest/peace/comfort in such a way as to be continuously maddening. Those flinches from that inside hitch... confuses people, so they do not try to understand.

...and should you cut it out completely, stitching it over... the 'phantom pain' is nearly enough to destroy.

yes I suppose you may be right but I still feel that it isn't always an option to express how you feel since it may destroy more than one person. I suppose we all deal with it in our own way. In my case it wouldn't have changed anything or perhaps I should say it didn't change anything after years of holding it in and now I wish I never revealed it. Every ending is different though...

And I think expressing it is the only option. It's the ever classic scenario of "I could reveal it and maybe it works or maybe I'll regret it - or I'll regret every second I haven't revealed it if I don't, anyways"

momentary searing pain, over the dull ache that eats away at being... yes.

(Its not quite love So I won't tell you) These lines have such an impact. Say the words, dont regret it later. As Ainsof stated it screams love to me.

won't let it... sucks to be on the other side of that, wondering why "she" won't let it. painfully poignant.

sounds just like love to me... nice development... an element of patience in the style, time to let the concept sink in all its depth to the level of a new realization.
