The Things I Never Said

A tormented heart finally revealed
Tears of pain in hidden eyes
A soul pleaded feelings it had concealed
In fancy costumes, there the truth lies


With wine upon lips, the erotic pleasures to hold
Selfish sins of a gold band
Darkness whispers of scandals untold
Set free, to one who holds the left hand

I say now what I never said
A friend in me no better you will find
But I can't forget that you are wed
So come to me if only in my mind
And let me say the things I never said

ooh girl I LOVE this one...
the rhyme is perfect, its reads lyricly
like a song...
some really cool lines in this
gem...
love those last two...
and the second verses crytic feel
keep coming cool-poet-gator

It's amazing
How you make your face just like a wall
How you take your heart and turn it off
How I turn my head and you lose it all ...
And it's unnerving
(How one move just puts me by myself)
There you go just trusting someone else
(Now I know I put us both through hell) ...
I'm not sayin
That there was nothing wrong
(I just didn't think you'd ever get tired of me)
And I'm not sayin
(We ever had the right to hold on)
(I just didn't wanna let you get away from me)

She says baby,
It's 3AM ... I must be lonely,
When she says baby,
Well I can't help but be scared of it all sometimes,
Says the rains gonna wash away I believe it.

Read once is not enough.  So there ARE others out there who know how I feel.

Because once you're there
It's up to you to make it happen."

Enjoyed your poem,my favorite lines!

Selfish sins of a gold band
Darkness whipers of scandals untold

This is a beautiful and touching poem. I love the rhyming, it's perfect.

Have whip will travel,

James, thank you.  You are very sweet and compliments mean a great deal to me.

Lovebug,thanks......the rhyming wasn't easy!


AL, thank you. I am glad you feel I was able to convey my message

James....Thank you so much for pointing out my small spelling error.  Not like me to make a mistake is it? LOL
Now, about this whipping issue.......I feel that perhaps you have some deep secluded feelings that perhaps you are harbouring.  Could it be that your subconciuos is playing you in dreams?  HMMMMMMM........perhaps you should visit Dr. Sig.  

Martinque, thank you.
