outside in the rain

you were my first love
now you'll be my last
i wonder why you left me
to shatter like glass.

you stole me of everything
then you just left
took my heart, mind, soul
then you took off, mewaiting, bereft.

you left me aching
inside and out
nothing now can save me
life, i now doubt.

my mind only thinks of you
my soul only longs
my heart only beats for you
my body, to you, belongs.

(defiantly not my best,sorry)
-missy

i loved this stanza

you were my first love
now you'll be my last
i wonder why you left me
to shatter like glass.

I must be really lucky, because I get to read another poem of your's! Yay!

I like it, like above, my favorite stanza was the first.

And what are you talking about? This is a wonderful poem! You've got rhyming skillage!

Okay, not only do I love the first stanza, like all the other comments said, I also liked this one,

"you left me aching
inside and out
nothing now can save me
life, i now doubt."


The last line in this is awesome, I love how you do a comma before you put, "I now doubt", very good setup there.

The only thing I'm a little so-so on is the second stanzas last line. It seems kind of... missing a couple words or something? I'm not sure, I'll have to re-read that...

Thanks for sharing, I loved reading this.
I hope you will continue to post more

oh my gosh! y'all just really brightened my day! I kept thinking people would hate these last to poems i posted, but im glad that y'all didn't!
rhia_5779, thank you so much for your reply/replies. i think thats my favorite verse, too, usually i start off with something i like best so i want to finish the rest!lol.
I'll defiantly enjoy those two cookies, memories!!
and stargal, everytime i read what you post, i get so worried/excited about what you'll put last, you're the one that really critiques my work the way i kinda see it.
But no, there isn't any words missing..unless y'all think of some. I don't really know how i was doing that stanza, so i guess you could be right about that..when i re-read it, it kinda did sound like it was missing something, but i don't know what else to put there!={ sorry! but anyway, thanks again!!

-missy
