My Poetry

                        Untitled                                

Some things I can't get use to no matter how I try,

I'm sitting here and thinking of the past and days gone by.

It's hard to try without you, the times that we have shared.

The many things we've said or done, the ways in which we cared.

I don't see how I'll make it, but it will work out right.

One day I'll look and you'll be there to make my darkness bright.

            Questions

I sit and wonder where you are.
Are you near or are you far?
Then I wonder why you went away.
Was it me? Are you going to stay?
So many questions shroud my mind,
Too many answers I need to find.
Will this confusion go away?
Or will it stay with me my whole life, everyday?
I only think of the bad things when you are here.
Yet, now I think of the good things that I hold so dear.
It seems like it didn't take too long.
It's only been a month since you've been gone.
Do I know how I feel?
Is this love for real?
Find me the answers I long to know.
For then proof of your love you will show.
I am a rock for you to lean on, but what about me?
I need a rock sometimes too, don't you see?
It seems like so long since you've been away,
And I wonder how long you will stay.
So, while you are gone,
Hopefully not long,
I will try to answer the questions that pervade my head.
The questions are hungry demons starving to be fed.

            Together Again                       

Loving thoughts run through my mind,

Visions of you I always find.

Together again and my heart pounds fast,

Wanting the moment to always last.

Breaking up and getting back together is what we do best,

Then again, isn't that the true test?

Love will see us through this phase,

Ahead of us lies our brighter days.

Faith and trust is what we must find,

Love each other, our heart, soul, and mind.

        Goodbye                       

Our love has gone stale,

How can we prevail?

The times that we laughed, the times that we shared,

Nothing on Earth could have compared.

That time is gone,

Something went wrong.

Now it must end,

Our hearts will mend.

We will find our way,

And have true happiness one day.

So, goodbye my friend,

Good luck with you I send.

            I Still Love You

I know I hurt you and I don't know what to do,

The past is history and I want my future to be with you.

How can I make you see our love is true?

You are the only man for me and I am the only woman for you.

Though you want me to give up on you,

I will have patience and we will make it through.

I love you and you love me,

There is a future there, can't you see?

            Pain                       

My heart torn to pieces

Not with the one I love

Why?

Foolish mistakes

Never to be forgiven

Fearing that I will

Never be with him again

I turn to lust

Never fully satisfied

Love won't be allowed again

Cannot take another chance

Why?

My heart belongs to him.

            Her                       

A name and now a face I see,

The woman who took him away from me.

I had a chance before she came,

But it isn't her that I should blame.

I am the one that made the mistake,

And his heart was there for her to take.

I know she is pretty but he says I am too,

Does he know which love is true?

This is the choice he has to make,

And I know it will be my heart to break.

It will be her all along,

For it is where his heart does now belong.
