I am sad and lonely, but never bitter I wonder if "true love always finds a way" I hear two lovers laughing I see their footsteps in the sand I want to feel sand beneath my feet once more I am sad and lonely, but never bitter I pretend my pillow is my lost love in my arms I feel her stir softly against me I touch her soft warm skin I worry that I will never be more than an empty shell I cry for true love not allowed to bloom I am sad and lonely, but never bitter I understand that dreams do come true I say that I felt happiness not long ago I dream of her sleeping safely in my embrace I try not to get emotional and upset her when we talk I hope that she understands this is a true rendition of my feelings, not a cheap attempt at emotional blackmail, I am sad and lonely, but never bitter. This is my old version of the poem. For the new version, see the open forum. It's like English A-level all over again... 1) Compare and contrast the two poems entitled "I am" by the hopeless romantic poet Eric Williams. (25) |

hmmm I just read that again.... hope it means I'm a hopeless romantic and not a hopeless poet *8) Ah well, I'll leave semantics to those more in the know! [This message has been edited by Eric Williams (edited 08-20-99).] |
