Gone

It started like another wonderful dream
Like one that would last an eternity
I set my eyes upon you again
Drawn by your beauty and presence

I was so full of emotion
I had no Idea how to handle it
Most of it stayed bottled up
Maybe I should have shown more

Faith, Hope, and Love
Faith; a belief without evidence
Hope; To want, To have, The desire
Love; A strong complex emotion,
Delight in the presence of someone

It pained me not knowing if you were happy or not
The thought of you not being happy hurts
I really wish we could have talked,
About what may have been bothering you

But what is done is done
I sit here writing this in the hope that,
You understand what I am trying to say
I thought you may have been the one
I guess I was wrong

Maybe all you needed was a little space
I don’t know, and maybe I never will
I would have been glad to give you some room
I would have done any thing to keep you

The tears seem to be endless
I try to forget about it
But it comes back hitting me harder than ever
I’m not sure what to do any more

The food becomes tasteless and not even worth it any more
Sleeping seems to be a thing of the past
The times when I do sleep,
There is always the pain of knowing that will not be there


There seems to have been that night where I may have not said I love you
The is no good excuse for me not saying it
That was a night of many tears
I asked if I could talk to you after school

Then I had to go
On the verge of breaking down
The thoughts of the days to come rush to me
My heart weeping as more and more of them flow in

I should have said I loved you
If I could go back in time to change it
I would do it at the first chance I got
Wether it changed the outcome or not

I loved you
I may still do
I was never able to be mad at you
But being upset and sadness does seem to reveal itself quite a lot

I believe the love is still there
Even though I know you may never return to my arms
I am still here waiting for your return
Mending this broken heart will not be easy
All we can to do is try

So another dream has ended
Waking up crying every night
Knowing that you may never come back
So, so long and farewell
May you live your life to the fullest

    wow...the second poem in a row i've read tonight that's made me go weak inside. This I can truly and whole heartedly relate to. This is a breathtaking piece, full of raw emotion, enough to reduce even the strongest man to tears.
    It looks as though my contest has two really strong contenders for top spot...this is going to be interesting.

    Very best of luck in the contest.
