" The Moment"

I'm waiting for the moment
To tell you how I feel
To release me from this torment
Where I follow you with zeal
I need to apologise
And rectify my mistakes
I don't know If you realise
Just how much my heart breaks
I know I'm not so perfect
And I know I'm not a saint
I'm hoping you'll detect
That I'm about to faint
It's not that I didn't love you
Or that I was so abused
It wasn't that my heart was blue
It's just that I was confused
I thought that I was honest
But all I told was lies
And I know that the real test
Is when I look into your eyes
I didn't want to hurt you
Or cause you any pain
I know that isn't true
And I've hurt you once again
I know that it was selfish
I think it was all greed
I'd say I couldn't help this
But lies you don't need
I'm hoping that you love
I hope you'll take me back
But If we just couldn't be
The I'll watch my heart turn black
I'm looking for a way out
But I need to tell you this
I want to scream and shout
but it's the point i'm trying to miss
I'm waiting for the moment
to tell you how I feel
I'm releasing all my torment
In love I hope to seal.

To Gemma for all the hurt and pain I've caused you please forgive me.

Friendship may end in love but love in friendship never.

Oh she will. Just show her this piece of magic.
Are you from our planet? I don't know where you are from, strange one, but I like your writing.

Seriously, excellent poem as usual. The flow of it was very nice. I liked how you rhymed "Selfish" with "help this." That didn't bother me as it normally would have. It fit the flow wonderfully.
See you around, Marshal. *bows*

Nicely done here......I thought you did quite well. I think everybody else said what I would have, so i'll just echo them.




I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

I'm in love with my shadow
I admire it daily

Very nicely done! I love the style of rhyming. Awesome job. Keep posting.

I never thought that you would ever be the one to let me down. I guess that just goes to show how wrong I always am.

I'll sum up my thoughts of the poem this way:

Show her the poem and her heart will melt

Thanks for sharing
