Empty Space

When you close your eyes
with me each night
Things are always great
they just feel so right.

I can't hide how I feel
neither can you I know
Can things really be this way
that our hearts will forever show.

This love that we share so strong
where two hearts join as one
Now is the time that I know
that true love has begun.

Now I wake up each day
feeling like I'm lost in this place
Now that you're no longer here
my heart is just an empty space.

    Empty Space says it all once you read the poem. It is a very well written poem. Congratulations on writing it.....and if based in real experience, I'm sorry the space is
    empty now.

    it was very pretty. though the last stanza was quite a surprise... to turn it out to be the opposite of it all in a way. very sad

    awe this is just so well written. I must say that I do truly like it. I like the emotions that you have put into this... so personal yet ones that we can all relate to. Thanks for sharing this with us.

  • This love that we share so strong
    where two hearts join as one
    Now is the time that I know
    that true love has begun.

    We all long for this, and yet, it seems to always end up the same. Great write!

    interesting poem which is different as the perspectives change gradually and the emotions were powerful.

    It almost made me sad that the love shared is lost and may never be gotten back. Nice style.

    Great poem, it goes from happy to sad, the sudden change is a bit unsettling could have a stronger transition but over all I really like it. It is really emotional and visually strong. Great job!

    good job

    these are the feelings someone has after true love has begun after feeling like I m lost in this place
    now without someone loneliness begins.
