Tears of dispair swallow my body,
convulsing with overwhelming pain.
Aching for the chance to hold once more,
all that has been stolen away.
You stole my heart with such sweetness,
lifting my body and spirit to new hights.
Allowing me to roam free,
grazing everywhere in your arms.
Far was I from knowing that sorrowful words
were lingering near.
Soft words spoken that you needed space,
grinding and twisting my heart.
An unthinkable shape is now me,
something black that lingers in the dark.
Hopeing, wishing for more light,
the rays formed by love's gentle fingers.
The first time I was hurt was your fault,
the next mine - for I knew it was coming.
Someday a hand will crush you,
to show you the pain of lonelyness.
I wonder - will you be able to go on.
You'll be knocked down by a great force,
making you prove your worth.
Worthy of having the love of another.

This was a great poem, I loved it.

I like the way you described exactly how you felt.
I like your signature quote too. :p
