when i look around me
all i see is pain.
i long to hear your loving voice
calling out my name.
telling me you want me,
that you'll always need me here.
but all i hear is echoing
everytime i shed a tear,
they trickle to the ground
and puddle all around me.
but i cant seem to stop
and now i cannot see.
my eyes are blurred from crying
for hours in the dark.
when did all this bad happen?
when did it all start?
i long to hold you once more
to tell you how i feel.
but i know that you'll reject me
the pain for you isn't real.
so as i sit here crying all alone,
with darkness all around me.
i think of you as i used to,
knowing we will never be.

Leanne, I feel the ache in your words. Poignantly expressed,  nicely done.  

seek the flame within yourself
and let your soul be cleansed by
the fire of love.  Axel Ekenstierna

Some are like that...you
just know it will never be...
This poem flows as freely as
joyful tears, however....Great work!

The emotion in this poem is very well expressed, I commend you for that and offer my condolences. I understand your pain.

However, I might suggest putting breaks in the poem. As it is right now, it kind of blends together. Is that what you were going for?

Also, occasionally flow stumbles. It has a flow from line to line, and every now and then, it continues from one line to the start of the next, without stopping.

Good luck.
