A sense of regret fill my eyes
Afraid to tell the truth, I lie
He held me close, so warm and content
No ideas for action did he implement
I cry silently, make sure he cannot see
The torment that lies within me
Sensing there is something wrong
I could not hold back for very long
I begin to cry somewhat openly
He stands there embracing me
I sink into his arms, its okay
He asks what's wrong, but I can't say
Sighing, I want to give in to his offer
Can I trust him, I'm not really sure
Its sweet because he tries his best
I don't feel I can give in to this simple request
Holding me, arms locked in place
Tears flowing, I try to hide my face
He asks continually for me to reply
I didn't want to so he asked me "why?"
Harder to hold back my tears, I stand
Wanting to run and hide, he grabs my hand
Holding me where I sat though I wanted to go
He wouldn't let me by, he just had to know
I tried so hard to ignore
The feelings I had felt before
Slowly, I began to feel a great need
I know if he tried he would succeed
I wanted him to kiss me right where I sat
Staring at him I knew he could feel that
He could see the silent need in my eyes
The feeling I felt I could not disguise
Asking again and again what was wrong
Finding it harder to resist his embrace for long
Wanting him as I had once before
And what I felt made me want him more
His hands soothing, soft and calm on my face
The shape of my cheek his thumb did trace
Looking at him with longing, I'm sure he knew
And I could see in some way he wanted it too
Why did he have to be so sweet to me
Why is it he told me what I needed to see
Telling me he joked about wanting so much more
But I could hear the need in his voice just like before
I knew he wanted me just as I had him right then
But it was good I didn't answer when he asked time and again
I couldn't bring myself to tell him what was bothering me
I did not think he would understand or see
As the night came to an end
I felt as I had begun to depend
He was the answer to any problem
And if I again I asked, I knew he'd come
Author notes
This is something that is very hard to admit for me, but it was definitely something I needed to get off my chest though.
Tell me, what did you think?

wow
This is absolutely wonderful! Its so sweet and emotional and tender. Its truly great. While I was reading it, it made me think of how I tend to be with my boyfriend. I have a difficult time opening up because I don't want to hurt him and this peom pertrayed that lost kind of feeling so many other girls around the world feel. This is a wonderful poem.
Great job

Thank you,
But I am not really sure you understand where this poem is going. In all honesty, its about wanting to be with someone else while I was with my bf. Its about how much I wanted to be in this other guys arms because he was there when my bf wasn't. And I know that sounds really bad on my part, but sometimes it just seems he cares more than my bf does. Actually its a very painful poem. But thank you anyhow.

Thank you,
I actually didn't think I would get any comments on this. Seeing as it was just written yesterday and I didn't really put it out there to be read, I'm glad to have gotten some feed back on it. Most of my poems don't have any at all and they have been on this site since 2007. its all good though, thank you again for the wonderful comment. Take care and have a good weekend.
