I know your touch,
I know your smile.
I just wish you'd let it linger a little while longer.
Your body is so much stronger than mine,
as you pull me close,
our bodies intertwine.
I wrap my arms around you
refusing to let you go,
to let go of the past,
of us...
You have no idea how long it's taken me
to adjust to a life in which I can no longer call you mine.
Sometimes I wish I could simply rewind.
To turn back time,
to be with you.
Sometimes I wish you only knew
You take your arms from around my waist,
But its you lips I wish to taste just once more.
You start to pull away,
My heart is still searching for the right words to say.
You look just once more into my eyes.
I've forgiven you for all the lies,
and times you made me cry.
You turn and start to walk away.
Iknew the words that I must say.
My heart is racing,
as the words form to my lips.
"I love you" I whisper.
But you're to far to hear.
Standing here I watch you go,
Wanting you to know how much I miss you.
Sometimes I wish you'd look my way,
and realize that I need you to stay.
If only you'd heard me say,
I love you,
maybe you wouldn't have walked away.
Author notes
When I fell for him I fell hard, with no one to catch my fall. Its been almost two years since we seperated but though I'm completly and totally in love with my boyfriend at the moment I still have feelings for him. He was my first true love and as crazy as it sounds sometimes I wonder if I'll ever be able to let him go. I'm a crazy ex because no matter what happens I will allways love him.

awww honey thanks.... I already did that but he said no...in part I am happy for it because he was clear.. but at the other part I am mad and sad... because of all these years living like this I thought he'd make the difference but unfortunately he didnt he only made it worse...
thnak you so much for this for I can see you he still lingers in your heart just like in my case -
its.....so...beau...beauti...beautiful! TT(starts crying0
I've been on both sides of this tale of heartache; and let me tell u, if he loved you and meant it it was harder for him to walk away than anyone else knows. When I had to walk away I felt like I was commiting suicide, and it felt just as bad if not worse when the my first love left me out of the blue after a year of dating.....But I'm always reminded of the words of a local romantic, who's made himself somewhat famous in my school, "...boths sides hurt intensely, and both sides will grieve immensely...... all over the love from which they walked away, casting a cold shadow that won't fade, by night or by day..." -Mister Valentine (a.k.a. Mister v) -
no "love"? How can that be with this poem? I think the word you want in l. 5 is intertwine though (maybe) Better luck next time. Thanks for entering.

wow
wow thats good i like that alot
-
This is awesome!
Powerful.
It flows so fluidly.
It seems to really take one in and conveys your emotions so strongly.
"Sometimes I wish I could simply rewind.
To turn back time,
to be with you.
Sometimes I wish you only knew
You take your arms from around my waist,
But its you lips I wish to taste just once more.
You start to pull away,
My heart is still searching for the right words to say."
I really like that part.
It pulls you towards the center, and finishes really well.
I quoted so much,
But it all just fit so well.
That part just struck me more powerfully than the rest, I suppose.
Again, I really loved this,
But,
I hope you figure it out soon.
I truly do,
Because I know how long it took me.
Good luck.

I Agree
this is beautiful and true. Darling, let him know, I don't care what you have to do, but let him know [both of them] that they're eating you up inside. That as he walked away you whispered I love you. Let him know!
Beautiful, absolutely beautiful. -
beautiful and true
Hey! I love your poem like always. It tells a story. I know what you're talking about too. My favorite part is, "I love you" I whisper.
But you're to far to hear."
Good luck in the contest!
