I haven't spoken to you in weeks,
My will to keep waiting is getting... weak
Not a message or a note
to say that you're ok so that I know
not a murmur have I heard.1
And i'm tired of holding my breath
waiting for you
I'm tired of being alone,
I don't want to be anymore
I need to talk to you
about this broken relationship.2
The time difference and the distance
it is making it hard to hold on
We haven't got a real thing happening here
we just talk when you're on
-and you haven't said a word in weeks
and my will to keep waiting is getting... weak3
So I'm tired of holding my breath
I'm waiting for you when you aren't even there
And i'm tired of being alone
I don't want to be anymore
I need to talk to you
about this broken relationship4
And. I. Hold. My. Breath.
My. Hands. Are. Cold.
I wonder if you realize how it hurts
I dont't know what you want anymore
is this all just a farce?5
Yeah, i'm tired of holding my breath
of waiting when you don't appear
and i'm tired of being alone
I don't want to be anymore
I need to talk to you
about this broken realtionship6
So right now,
I feel I aughta let you go
I understand, that this is not fair to either of us
I don't want to hurt you - breaking dreams
but I think you'll understand
because at the rate things are going...
everythings just getting out of hand.7
This is the last stretch
I'm going to let go...
I can't hold my breath no more
unless I want to go 6 below
I'm sorry if i seem selfish
impatient, cold or disatisfied
But none of this is fair on either of us...8
I need to talk to you,
about this broken realtionship

Get out of my mind!
Seriously, this is exactly how I've been feeling lately
when it comes to my long distnce "relationship".
I'm so sorry to find there is someone else go through these same feelings. D:
I'd feel like a hypocrite if I said that maybe you should end it because it's causing you so much pain, because I... pretty much don't want to end it yet with my person...
So, I have no idea what to say in this comment now. DX
But, anyways, that all aside,
as I think I said, you protrayed teh frustration of a situation like this perfectly, because a relationship like this is "broken". It's only half there, because theres only so much of the expereince one can get virtualy, and that's, in my mind, what makes it so broken.
And when you say that it's unfail for both of you, brava!
Anyways, this song/poem truely spoke to me, probably because I'm going through the exact same situation, and I hipe you are able to find a situation that makes the two of you happy.

Bahahha! sorry didn't mean to get in your mind
thankyou for checking this out, and yeah it is hard.
I am thinking of breaking itoff, i mean,i don't want to lose his friendship, and by the way things are going i prolly wouldn't be seeing him for a while yet, but maybe its better off being just a friendship, yah know?
Another reason for my distress is the fact that i have a guy here i have found i like recently, i mean i've known himfor about a year, but... things take time and i can be pretty thick but yeah he likes me back also. its kinda crazy.
yeah. its not a real relationship until we actually meet in my books, unfortunatly.
I am glad the song spoke to you, i'm gonna try putting it to music sometime.
and Thankyou.

Hi Becca,
Great lyrics addressing a common contemporary issue.
As many commentators have pointed out in recent years, we spend more time with more people "communicating" long-distance; but we have very few face to face friends. We seem to have lost the ability to relate in the 'actual' because we spend too much time in the 'virtual'.
A '20-something' that I know went all the way to Melbourne recently to see her long-distance bf, only to return disappointed, because in person he was a waste of space. She would have done better looking local.
[And don't communicate 'long-distance' with your text books this close to exams, either]

Hey G.
Thankyou for checking this out, i really appreciate it.
Yeah i've been told it probablywouldnt work out, and i realized that, i mean i havent spoken to him properly in three weeks now, and i don't have a ton of friends face to face either, but neither do i have that many close-cyber friends, prolly aorund about the same amount.
This was aloso written with a slightly guilty feeling, because there is this guy i like here in adelaide, who says he likes me also. we work in teh same place and talk a fair bit on msn, cause he dosent always have credit on his phone and he goes to another school, which isn't far from mine, also lives like,literally up the road.
I'm sorry for your friend, that would have been extremely disappointing for her, that is another reason i'm reviewing the relationship i have with justin... i don't want to hurt him causes he is really sweet from what i can gather, and i kinda feel like i'm betraying himin a way, I'd feel like i'm cheating on him if you get what i mean.
Ok, OK, i am working i am working. lol. I've been good.

I...hmmm
It's an interesting song, I love it and hate it at the same time. The lyrics are good, and I can think of several tunes that would fit it. I also hate it, however, cos I'm in a long distance relationship, where I can currently only talk with my gf every 2-3 weeks. Her internet should be back to normal in a few months, and it is getting a little hard, but I'm gonna persevere, cos I just...feel like she is the one for me...and we promised to try and make it through.
I seemed to get off the point: I don't know the circumstances, but you gotta ask yourself; is he the one for you? if he is, then time and diistance should be no trouble...
Good song though

Understandable.
I like him, he's a sweet guy and i really don't want to hurt him, i'd like to try, but I only on the rare occasion get to speak to him now usually about, as in your case, every 2-3 weesk if not more, but he now has a mobile number i could call (which he has not passed on, unsure of why, parents possibly) and he has net, that he manages to get on most days, even if i can't actually talk to him on msn, a note every now and then would be nice.
it is very hard, and i have no idea waht i'm doing anymore.
Thankyou for checking this out, mate
Cheers

Wow..
Well from what you've said..Maybe you should let him go. Only because he may not, well, have any internet, or phone..Or..Any means to contact you. I've gone months without contacting somebody, & people thought I was dead, lost a couple good friends (& loves..) that way, as well. But it's comforting, isn't it, a little, to take away the heart strings & sigh a breath of relief that the pain is over, in temporary intervals, like an ocean wave on the sea..Good lyric. I think it's speaking for a lot of people. Certainly reminds me of a time when I felt the same way.

Yeah. i probablywill.i think. i mean. he wasa good friend, and i hope we can remain that way, but its very hard maintaing thatsort of relationship when one end of the parntership dosn'tget on the computer when your on, or dosent really have the money for a phone.
yeah, it'd be easier, sepecially with year 12 exams starting in 3 weeks.
Thankyou. -

Exactly, it doesn't have to be the end. Because, in the future of any relationship, the first few years of loneliness, wandering, wondering, & temptation to flee are the trial errors, if the people involved are thinking of a long-term relationship with each other, any way. It doesn't mean the end, not by a long shot, unless you two agree. Heck, even bands that separated in the 70s & 80s are reuniting for tours & crap You deserve it to yourself to at least put your priorities into play & focus on yourself, for now, during one of the most intense futures of your career/education coming up

yeah. thankyou, its good to get some advice on this.
I never really had any relationship in a bf/gf way before this so... yeah.
Apart of the reason i'm revising also though is because there is... someone else i like, and he's here, noth 2,000 miles on the other side of the world.
LOL, yeah its amusing how they're all doing that.

Great song. Very emotional. Can be sung too - I tried it

lol. thankee. it can be. i was trying to comeup with a melody while i was writing it

I kinda know how you feel. It'll be fine. If it doesn't work at then get someone else. Someone you can talk to always. This is good by the way.

Hey thanks.
i feel very confused cause part of the reason i'm kinda revising it (as well as the fact that i hardly get to talk to my bf) i have aguy i like here, and who likes me back.
I just don't want to hurt my bf, cause hes a really nice guy.
