I swear I could see you
Everything I want to hold on to
Everything is you

I wish I wasn’t pretending
I wish I could have you here
I wish you felt my safety now

I want to pretend to much
I want to hold you in my arms
But that is another thing I dream of
Is it to much to hold on to?
The image you left behind
It’s in my memory
I won’t let it leave

I want to help you build your life
Will you let me get close?
I can’t stand to be without you
Say something before I get brought down
Will I ever know your name?
There is nothing I can do

Don’t forget what happened
I keep feeling the same way
What am I really thinking about
Is this what it is?
I ask for too much
Is it really what I want?
Do I need to hope for something else?

This was good it has a lot of emotion in it. It seemed to tell not show though- maybe if its not too  difficult because sometimes if something hits to close to the heart then its not possible to but rereading and seeing where you can subsitute imagery for just regular words.

It seems more like you are casually talking to someone instead of writing a poem...Like the thoughts, but I agree with Rhia.

If I understood what Rhia said I'd have to agree with her. lol... I think? My comment is just describe more. You have your sentences more as statements. Its just awkward to read for me. Good try though?

When I see your smile, and I know it’s not for me, that’s when I’ll miss you.
