I got all dressed up for you yesterday
When you didn’t show I was disappointed I must say
I really thought I could bring you with my mind
We used to be connected that way, your thoughts and mine
You have a new life you’ve moved on without me
I just wish you would take the time out to see
How much I’ve changed and how much I’ve grown
Since I’ve had to make it on my own
Over the years my love for you has never died
I only see you and me when I close my eyes
So much has happened over these years
My heart got broken, I shed many tears
But nothing hurt as much as losing you
Without your love I’m lost, I don’t know what to do
My love I’m not asking you to make me your wife
I just want to be a part of your life
There are so many things I want us to share
And whenever you need me I will be there
I’m so in love with you this is true
I hope to grow old and gray with you
Even if we do so as just friends
I want you in my life until the end
I got all dressed up for you yesterday
When you didn’t show I was disappointed I must say
I really thought I could bring you with my mind
We used to be connected that way, your thoughts and mine

Thank you for reading The sound of A Heart Breaking. Glad it touched your heart.
When love is lost to another or even by death the pain is great.
When you love someone with your whole being it is hard to put them in the slot of friend, but it can be done, even if may cry when they walk out the door back to there life with another.
Good poem. Thank you for sharing your words with us.

this is a beautiful and sad piece that is really sorrow filled and yet soft as well.. great background

such nice thoughts that hold such deep meaning. journals are great and make for nice writing material. i like the way you talk about connecting with your thoughts in a special way. when you have that kind of communication sometimes words aren't necessary. don't let him slip away. Chuck

Good.
This one has depth. It has a lot going on, or so I think. I like the journey. I would very much like to see you write a free verse version of this poem, chucking limitations of rhymes and just letting it rip. -
wow, try reading this with that Vindicated song playing in the back ground....great write. I will be checking back here as well. I doubt that there are very many people that won't relate to this one, i know i do. great write.

Such a sad poem, it would be so hurtful to lose the one you love. Still be in love and they have moved on without you. You captured all these feelings very well.

You have writen what I feel . -
Thanks Diamond. I think a lot of people can relate to this poem and the others in the collection. She has grown a lot since the time she was with this man but he doesnt see it. She's thinking of years ago when he used to make surprise visits, only they are not that close anymore Sad I know

Awesome Write
Loved this poem Dee, the repitition of the first four lines and the last four lines gave strength to the poem. I sympathize with the young girl because it seems that she's grown up but the man she loves has moved on with his life. I hope he comes back to her and they find love with each other once again. Great job Dee, i'll be following your collection very closely. I have to keep up with this young girl's life. Avril

Excellent
This is a very sad piece oh the toils of love! I liked the repitition of some of the lines, and the layout made it much easier to read 
Good luck with this new collection, from the read of this one it looks like it's going to be a hit. Keep it up. Take care, Kate
