I turn the other cheek, and fall

Contributed by smilinjlo17 on Sunday, 14th September 2003 @ 07:35:00 PM in AEST
Topic: EmotionalPoetry

why do i keep staring,
out to the blankest wall.
checking for observations,
and trying not to fall.

i insist on never letting go,
although i know that the truth is-
that the eyes i see are saying no.

i finally found my weakest link,
and found the cut short wire.
found the lowest quality,
i see that, which may be,
it may be a problem,
that foes seem to find,
they take advantage,
and let go,
and they watch me and I
cry out my eyes, never letting go.

I miss the times we used to have,
i miss the hugs we shared,
but now, i know, i truly know,
your not there, i only just thought you cared.

I was wrong, yes I admit.
I'm playing the game i never wanted to forget.
i didnt want to give you up,
i didnt want to stop the hope,
i have no choice,
its over now, i cant hear your voice.

Awww always so sad this type of thing, I am sure every one has experienced this in their life, if they haven't then maybe later they will, if never, then they are lucky. Nice sad write. Thanks for sharing.
Love Emma.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
