“Wishing”

Pangs of sorrow
At thoughts of yesterdays gone by
Wishing you had never said goodbye

Dreams of the past
Haunt me every night
Making it so I never want to see the days dawning light

Torment in the present
Knowing I can not hold you close
Just when I needed you the most

Visions of the future
Leave me feeling utterly alone
Knowing that  love shall never again be known

All this leaves me wishing…
Wishing …
Wishing  you had never said goodbye



It's too bad I'm not as wonderful a person as people say I am, because the world could use a few people like that.

I've learned that even when you

Nice job, I liked repitition of "wishing."     It read aloud very neat.  
Once again, hope all turns up roses for you.

Wow, i really liked this. Great use of repetition! I really thought this rocked.

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

After Allan's comment I went back and read it aloud, and it does sound pretty neat.
Good job.

Great job!  I have to agree with everyone else.  The repition was a great affect.

My tears roll right down my cheeks, but they all soak into my pillow.  I feel kinda sorry for it...
