Poetry: Old and new

by Michelle Paszkowski

Created on: July 14, 2010

Alone and silent in this bed I lie

Over and over I ask myself why

I long for your touch, your soft warm embrace

your heartbeat that flutters as we try to keep pace

Instead I lie cold, and motionless, still

So empty my heart, it time cannot fill

Awake and so cold

I miss days of old

when you held me and loved me

and made love to me,so bold

One day you will ache

when I've found someone new

And lie here awake

feel this emptiness too

when he wraps me in warmth

as you slowly decay

your cruel lack of love

will have sent me away.
