Your Love

To be stuck in a romance lake,
Waiting for you to awake
From your long love sleep,
Only to watch me cry and weep

Your tears and mine form the sea we are drowning in
It's your arms I wish to be laying in
We've been through so much,
     why stop now
Make love not painful,
     please tell me how

It's just for the better, just wait and see
You'll be much, much better off without me
I'm sorry I wasn't everything you wanted me to be
How can you ever, ever forgive me?

I'm sorry for the pain I caused you
I'm sorry that I thought you always knew:
That I'm not that perfect girl,
Not rare and precious as a pearl

I'm sorry that I say all the wrong things at all    
     the wrong times
I'm sorry that I make up these stupid poems with
     ryhmes

And out of all the things I'm most sorry for,
The one I'm most sorry about is
Giving up the one person I truly loved
The kind of love that is never moved or shoved

(But dear)
I'm not sorry for falling in love with you,
I'm just sorry that you didn't fall for me
Just remember:
Please don't frown,
    while I drown
        in your sea of temptation

Welcome to Passions JulietRose!  What a lovely first post ... full of longing and heartfelt emotions.  It's so easy to fall when someone places you on a pedestal, never easy to be "perfect" indeed.  I hope happy days will come soon ... wonderful poem!

Best wishes,
/Kit

I have to agree with Sea...no poetry from the heart is stupid especially when it is from the heart.  Keep writing and I'll keep reading.  Hope the wounds heal to shallow scars.  Welcome to Passions.

Ok, I'm for once gonna disagree with everyone here  

I don't think you put this line in ...

"I'm sorry that I make up these stupid poems with rhymes"

Because you think poetry is stupid , nope , I think you put that line there because you think HE thinks it is stupid   (of course, I could be wrong   LOL)

In any case, Welcome to Passions

I think you'll find a lot of new friends here, I know I have

   Haha, you were exactly right.  I meant that line as in HE thought poetry was stupid, or at least he gave me reason to believe he thought it was stupid.  Youpicked up on that one lol  And thanks for the welcome everyone ~Love, JulietRose

Welcome to passions....Liked your first post.
Oh and how I relate.....to most of it...and yes I thought the same thing as Jeffery, I knew what you meant...It is hard to please someone....anyone....But remember you can please some of the people some of the time...but you can not please everyone ALL of the time.....Chin up...it gets better....Trust me....

Julie :)
