On Nights Without You

Can you picture me
Sat here whilst yearning
As I pour out my heart
A solitary candle burning

In the flickering flame
My vigil by a candlelight
Feelings start to flow
Heart breaking as I write

In the candlelight glow
Lonely nights I had spent
Writing letters of love
Which shall never be sent

Slowly the candle melts
Words you would not see
On nights without you
Tears I have shed silently

Yea, it's difficult to know what to do with our emotions sometimes.

Love is such a wonderful feeling, I just wish it wasn't so complicated.

Your poem tugs at the heart of the matter.

Nice writing, Hope~

"Can you picture me

If someone ask me if I was lonely, and  at that moment I was, I would tell them its better not to think like that...James
