The pain is deep inside
Its hard to try and hide
But it must stay unknown for right now.
I thought I was destined to be with you
I thought you were destined to love me to,
But you never really tried did you?

I remember lying with you
On that grass, covered with dew.
I gripped you close as you shivered on my shoulder.
You whispered in my ear,
The words, they came in clear,
But you didn't mean what you said did you?

I remember our first kiss,
It is a memory I will miss,
But it hurts to think of you right now.
We breathed at a steady pace,
As I leaned into your face,
But you wish it never happened don't you?

I remember not knowing what to say
When you broke my heart that day,
The pieces fell crashing to the ground.
I felt alone once more,
As you walked out the door,
But you don't really care, do you?

My love for you has run cold
But the memories I will have to hold
Because you are to hard to erase.
I won't cry for you at night,
I won't call you my shining light,
Because you never really cared, did you?

"When the power of love overcomes the love of power, the world will know peace."
Jimi Hendrix

This could use some more description beside what it has.


My love for you has run cold
But the memories I will have to hold
Because you are to hard to erase.
I won't cry for you at night,
I won't call you my shining light,
Because you never really cared, did you?


Love this!

Umm...I'll be 100% honest on this one...it just made me cry. Normally I can tell where a poets coming from, but very very rarely does someone really hit a soft emotion. You did. This is by far my favorite from you...prolly because I understand it way too well.

I guess what got me was how you started every line with a lovable sense, of something that you loved and something you thought was there, but ended it by adding a question regarding everything you'd previously said. That was more powerful than anything else in this poem.

Very nicely done. Wow.

Tell me what you think about being open, about being honest with yourself.

Suggestion to the title why dont you put a question mark at the end , since you end the last line of each stanza as a question.

i am speechless that was a beautiful poem.

Cause all we know is falling, it falls.
Remember how, cause I know that we won't forget at all.

So this is how it goes
Well I, I would have never
