I know it happened too fast, but
You were there
So was I
And the sky opened up and sucked us in,
It just begin,
Wild saturated infatuation at play,
Instantly all day,
I'm missing you,
Obsessing over you,
Can't wait to see you,
Yearning to be next to you,
To hear the baritone in your voice.
I thought we made a choice with our hearts,
We existed worlds apart from all the others,
We we're friend, artisans', lovers,
Time stood still between our gaze,
Lazy days filled with smiles,
Miles of dialogue,
Corroded with the scent of destiny,
Now, Broken hearted rage,
Rivers of tears,
Is what's left of me.
I stare at my sleeve for hours,
My heart rest there ,
And she's lost without you,
I know I hurt you
But,
I love you.
Doesn't that count for something?
Wild saturated lust with no foreplay,
Every day,
All day,
I'm missing you,
Obsessing over you,
Can't wait to see you.

Poetry: Love gone wrong
by Emily Smith
They say eyes are windows to the soul
If that's true, yours must be stain-glassed
Becaus e I never could see in.
They say soft
It's the words we say
And those we don't
That bring us to this point
Disappointed and brokenhearted
You did, I gave that's how
by Amanda Coyle
Nothing hurts me more
Then to see you in such pain
I wish I could take it away
But the way I feel for you will never change
I
Apparently So
Back then, you trusted me
We shared our homes each night
I cooked supper and you washed dishes
A parity took
CAPTIVE
Love, hope, bittersweet.
Dead, still, utterly weak.
I try not to think about
the way I heard you shout.
