Never close enough

0 posted 2008-03-10 03:39 AM



Not near enough time
to say what I wanna say
Not near enough dark
to save me from another day

I dont think of you often
just every now and then
I listen to my memory,
and I remember when

You could make me laugh and cry
you were master of my emotion
I was foolish and in love
full of blind, and pathetic devotion

I let you take me apart
and put me back together
I trusted it wouldnt storm,
never prepared for rainy weather

Then, one day the clouds rolled in
funnels from the sky...
I looked but couldnt find you
hell, I couldnt even cry

I stood in the storm for hours
let it beat me black and blue
Hating you for being gone,
and myself more
for waiting on you

Tima...Very gut wrenching write. I felt like I was standing in the storm with you and that is what I like about poetry, feeling it from within to the point that it feels real. Enjoyed...Paul

Tima! What a pleasant surprise to see you posting again!

It would appear that you have weathered a very unpleasant emotional storm, but thankfully, it also appears as though yesterday's bad weather, is behind you. Here's to the dawning of a new day!

Very emotive write. I could feel every word.

Giving you a warm, welcome-back pip hug,

Linda
