This is really the only peom I have ever wrote. I know its not great.

I told myself no
I said not again

You told me it’s right
That’s its time again

I fought and I fought
To protect this weak heart

Each day you came
With more of the same

I started feel it
I started to fall

You thought I was not coming
You waited to long

My love it did grow
Day after day

Now you are gone
Could it be more wrong

You say you need time
Space for your life

My love I’m still here
But I can’t stay long

I like your poem very much, William!  I hope she gives you another chance, it would be a great shame to let something so wonderful slip away.

It's written straight from the heart William...GIVE IT TO HER...I know if a man gave me something as heartfelt as this dear...I run into open arms!!! Welcome to the family!!!

 Open arms can be the most fragile in the world...

This is very honest...but as the old saying goes..."It's better to have love and lost...then to have never loved at all.."

Give her another chance...and have no regrets...may love smile brightly on you both... )


 Freedom of expression is the watch word...

For not being a poet, you've done quite well.. Also, be aware that if you want to edit your post, you can click on the notepad icon on your post - Edit away!!

Also, I think you should give it to her - It's a lovely poem..
