How can I tell you all that you are to me
What you do to me
You control every heart beat
You’re the strength of my life
Your better then Drugs
I am addicted for life
Your better then wine
I am intoxicated by you
I am starving for your attention
Like an addict I can’t get enough
I am in a coma
From an overdose of you
I hate feeling like this
I’m so tired of trying to fight this
I am asleep
Tell me that you will listen
I don’t wanna live
I don’t wanna breath
Waking up to you never felt so good
Nothing left but scars
A space between you and me
I am left wondering if you will say goodbye
Yesterday was easier
Where has all the time gone now
We are getting older
I don’t want this to be over
I don’t ever want to hear goodbye
I wish we could be laughing
And everything was the same
Just like it was before
Things change over time
I can’t take back the wrong things
Nothing could hurt this bad
No one could know this pain
Is this time meant for me and you
My love is waiting
For you to accept it
To turn your tears into roses
I will be here for you
To run to
I will be here when you
Need arms to hold you
Hear my whispers in the dark
I want to clothe you with Crimson Roses
Let me turn your tears to roses

Thanks
I love the line, "Let me turn your tears to roses". I found this a little confusing. It seemed to be based on a successful relationship and one that wasn't successful. It was kind of like the two relationships conflicted with each other. It also seems that this would be difficult to hang a melody on. Do you have a melody for it?
It is good to see that you are still active with AP. How are things going with your music? I have been spending most of my time at Storywrite lately. Thanks for entering my contest. I really appreciate it.

This is one of my favorite lines in the poem....it flows very well.. awesomeness i love it -
I read the peice and thought it was rather sweet, but its a message which is said over and over, I do think its very well written, just wish people today would aspire to write about random things instead of love and loss, granted these are strong emotions but so are others and they seem to be lost in poetry land.

wow
You did a crilliant job at conveying the pain
towards the ending.
You did a very good job with the whole thing and made it like i could feel the actual pain you were decribing.
This made me realy feel. well done
