Galing naman...I really like your poem, I think it's quite well-written. It rings so true...sounds like there's an interesting story behind that poem... 
I've been through that "stage" too (in what now seems like a very distant past), it was harrowing to go through all that but, cliche as this may sound, I did learn so many things and came out of the whole experience a better person. In short, I grew up. (Some people would say that I didn't grow up enough, but that's another story.) And looking back, natatatawa na lang ako sa sarili sa mga pinag-gagagawa ko nung mga panahong yun...
Stay strong and cool, girl. Kudos again.

I don't want to think about you anymore....
I don't want to know how you're doing......
I don't want to reminisce about how good it felt to be with you....
I don't want to think about our fun conversations....
I don't want to torture myself with thoughts of you....
I don't want to confuse myself anymore......
I don't want to know where I stand.....
I don't want to know if we really connected on a different level.....
I don't want to wonder if you'll get in touch with me when you come back.....
I don't want to wonder when you'll be back....
I don't want you to be the first thing in my mind when I wake up....
and I DON'T WANT TO MISS YOU ANYMORE!!!
I want my mind to be free from thoughts of you...
I want to accept that there will never be "us"......
I want to wake up from this foolishness.....
I want to forget about you once and for all....
I WANT TO NOT WANT YOU ANYMORE.......
I want to know why you had such an impact on me....
I want to know what you said to me that made me feel so much for you......or maybe it's the unspoken words
I want to know why I can't forget the look you gave me the last time we saw each other..........
I want to know if that look really meant anything at all......
I WANT TO KNOW WHY I CAN'T STOP THIS MADNESS!!!!!!
I want to know when I'll stop wanting and wondering and thinking about these stupid thoughts.....
maybe if I'm lucky I can let go today
or maybe tomorrow...........!
thanks! really appreciate it, my first time writing anything like that, di ko alam kung pano ko nasulat yan, i guess my feeling were really intense,
but like you said when i look back at this matatawa din ako sa sarili ko im sure....hehehe! (ngayon pa lang)and i think if we don't get hurt we won't learn and next time when a situation like that comes along we'll be smarter about how to control our emotions,
yan drama na naman ako....hehheh but thanks again....
