Mahal Kita!!!

I feel you slipping
away from me
like sand
in my hands
Slowly trickles
through my fingers
Until suddenly
painfully, desperately
I close my hands
to hold on to some of it
but most of it
already spilled.
My heart
now
Emptied. Finished
Gone.
And the rest of me
Loose, torn free
Tried and frightened
Crying, fading
Wondering
WHY
You can’t
Love
ME.




Sometimes Love is like awkward poetry, the words may not be just right
but when love comes freely from the heart the message sings!

Kristine,
I feel that this could have ended with the "why", but in lower case. Enjoyed it as it is though. I just don't think it needs the end that you've written.
