I’m running only on instinct and adrenalin.
Never knew this feeling was ever possible.
Is this real or just another fantasy?
I never want to let you go,
I want you to stay here with you forever.
Never want this feeling to leave me.
I miss you, though you’re inches away.
I still remember the songs we listened to;
they keep playing inside my head.
I’ll never forget the look on your face,
or the passion that filled your eyes.
I know we were meant to be.
We’ll find each other again someday.
Do you still care about me?
Are your eyes still that beautiful green?
Or have they forgotten that I exist?
I know I can never forget you:
you taught me so much, so young.
You’re so beautiful and you’re so different.
Together, we got in so much trouble,
but I never cared because I had you.
I still miss you,
Yours truly.

Thank you for entering
I think that we have all felt this way to some degree or another... I know that I certainly have. The way in which you ended this was really well done... it made my heart pound and breath catch in my throat
Excellent use of wording and emotions
Thanks and good luck

I really like this poem. It's really sad and I almost started crying. Because I know how it feels to love and be loved,then get your heart ripped out and stomped on. Ok maybe that was a little graffic, but I think you know what I mean. Lol. I really like this poem. Great job.
