she wanted him so bad;
his windblown chocolate hair,
his eyes so blue they made her melt in his glance,
his voice filled with insecruity and sarcasm,
his nails that resembled a jagged rock,
his athletic talents, or lack there of,
she wanted it all.
She'd lie awake at night,
imagining how it would feel to have him hold her,
hug her but never let go,
to be able to collapse in his arms,
to have his embrace shield her from the cold.
She would imagine the taste of his mouth,
picture his chapped lips upon hers,
Watching him hug, flirt, or even stare at another girl,
sliced her heart in two;
and eventually so did her wrists.
Her friends saw her slipping,
but she was falling to fast for them to catch her.
Only he could do that now.
He got so close.
All he had to was utter those few words.
But the sentences never came.
so she just kept falling into the darkness.

This was a very well written piece I could feel the pain in it and I could indeed see the way it feels. It flowed well from line to line Thank you for entering the contest

I loved this poem. I loved all of the meaning behind it. The last two lines also were amazing, and they really ended the poem nicely.
