      Crush crush crush me
      I shouldn't be standing beside you
      They say
      Hush hush hush me
      I shouldn't be saying this to you
      They say
      Does it last forever?
      My teeth scrape your skin
      I run from the pain within
      But the shadows follow
      The walls are hollow
      And I hear your voice
      Hear you say
      I love you till I die
      Does it last forever?
      I'm living despite
      This respite
      I long to feel your eyes
      Your hands on me, responsive but
      They say we are too young
      To know what is good for us
      They say we shouldn't be
      But for my sanity
      I need you here with me
      I would
      But it's too hard to think
      Crush me
      I'm crushing
      The feelings I feel
      So I can live without you here
      If this isn't love
      I'm blind
      To the image of you standing
      In front of me wishing
      We were alone
      If this isn't love
      I'm deaf
      To the sound
      Of your voice and the pound
      Of your heart and mine
      Singing despite
      This respite
      But what does it matter?
      If this isn't love,
      I'm incapable
      And forever, if it's true,
      I'm in debt to you
      For giving me love
      When I needed you to.


The night is my companion
The solitude my guide
Would I spend forever here
And not be satisfied?
Sarah MacLachlan, "Possession"

This was a wonderful poem. I loved the ending.....made me smirk a bit. Kind of sweet that you got the love when you needed to. Wonderful!

I liked the flow of this one.  I think you did a very good job on it, it's got real feelings in it.  Thanks for sharing it with us

Thank you again everyone!

The only thIng I do not like aBout your poems is that theY're all so darn good, I can't say aNything to compliMent them as they deserve to be Complimented. This one is my favorIte of yours so far, so I'm not even going to try to tell you how muCh I loved it...words would faiL me.
