I loved you once before
Now it's gone
Nothing
Just the emptiness remains.
I befriended you once before
Now its gone
Nothing
Just an indifference remains.
I held you once before
Now its gone
Nothing
Just a bare embrace remains.
I trusted you once before
Now its gone
Nothing
Just the memory remains.
Please tell me what you think

Thank you for exressing, what so many of us are unable too...we give and give, only for naught, but we still give...

sad, but i know where you are coming from. i let people in and all they do is mess with my stuff and leave me with a mess to clean up my self. i am not mad at those people, though. i like to think i was there when they needed me even if they could not be there for me. you write very well, i like how you repeated the word remains, it just gives the reader a sense of familiarity throught the entire peom. when i read this piece i am reminded of a baren waist land. every thing is all dried up and cant support any more life, however there is evidence of a once thriving population. it gives the sense of wonder amidst the emptyness. keep loving to write!
