Hey Guys, sorry to all about the non-replies on poems been so busy with the baby... time is just going on soo quickly and by the time i do get around to me time i'm just that pooped i sleep lol. Well here's something new from me... Guess it's upto you on how u interperate it.

Slipping Through My Fingers..


Something isn't right
I can feel it in the air
This darkness is forsaken
And i'll be dammed if you care


Another broken promise
That you shot through my heart
It was never ment to hurt like this
Wish you'd warned me from the start


I screamed your name the other night
You were no where to be found
I lost myself in tears again
But dared not make a sound


Another night like this
And i'm not sure i'll make it through
I never signed up for the heart break
That came from loving you


It's been six days and four hours
Since i heard your voice
You signed up for this stupid job
Because we didn't have a choice


Tonight i'll lay awake and cry
I'd do anything to have you here
Your slipping through my fingers
And i'm drowning here in fear


* Um too clarify stuff.. Things are tough now the baby's here... and Andrew's taken a job.. working on a fishing boat close to the antartic borders. He's been gone for about a week.. and i haven't heard from him since he left (He promised he'd call).. it's not a full time job just two trips because we need the money... and i'm worried that something's going to happen too him... *

Great poem like always Jess. Don't worry about Andrew, I prayed for him so I think God and his angels will take care of him. Keep your hopes up.

When I see your smile, and I know it’s not for me, that’s when I’ll miss you.

I would say don't worry, but being a girl with a daring boyfriend myself, I understand that those words hardly mean a thing. So what I will tell you is that #1- Beautiful poem, loved the wording, felt the emotion. #2- Faith is a wonderful thing. #3- When he gets back you better kick his butt for not calling. lol. Best wishes Jess. I'm sure that he'll be safe.

This poem was very good. I would be so angry at him for not calling, but yeah I'm sure you will worry no matter what.

In the last line of the first stanza maybe taking the word 'and' out would help the flow a little. It just caught my attention.

Nice work.
