Tears fall upon my pillow; tears spill onto my cheek,
For words, I’m told, the man I loved, to someone else did speak.
Perhaps I’d do things differently, but alas, I never knew.
Why is it you can’t care for me, the way I do for you?
Did you know how much I missed you, when you were not around,
Or how much you helped to cheer me up, when I was feeling down?
Even now, I find that I still want to talk to you awhile.
I remember just how easily you could make me smile.
I hate myself, because I know I hunger for your touch.
I never knew it possible to miss someone so much.
I cannot stand to look up at a night time, star filled sky,
The twinkling lights I see there, remind me of your eyes.
The smoldering that’s within my chest, makes me too all aware,
Of the flames that burn inside my heart, that you ignited there.
God help me, I still want you and long to get lost in a kiss,
The kiss of someone dear to me, whom I already miss.
I can hear what you're thinking,.. All your doubts & fears,... If U look in my eye,... In time you'll find,... the reason I'm here,.. In time U may come back somday,.. To live once more-- or die once more-- In time your time,... will be no more,...

    i like your poem and i like the couplets. thank you for sharing. :)
    Down the street you can hear her scream youre a disgrace
    As she slams the door in his drunken face
    And now he stands outside
    And all the neighbours start to gossip and drool
    He cries oh, girl you must be mad,
    What happened to the sweet love you and me had?
    Against the door he leans and starts a scene,
    And his tears fall and burn the garden green
  • glad i could make your souls feel better,...

    mine will continue to weep.
    I can hear what you're thinking,.. All your doubts & fears,... If U look in my eye,... In time you'll find,... the reason I'm here,.. In time U may come back somday,.. To live once more-- or die once more-- In time your time,... will be no more,...
