Though you are beside me I sleep alone; The chasm between us Seems to have grown. The laughter and love Have dissipated; Leaving me wanting Feeling wasted. All my emotions I long to share; I desire to give To one who cares. Though you are beside me I sleep alone; My dreams are reserved I’m on my own. Not searching for love Just a friend; My ruptured soul Is on the mend. Contentment is pitiful I deserve more; Can it ever be the way It was before? Though you are beside me I sleep alone; Visions of another I am shown. Could he be the one To make me whole; Fulfill my fantasies Repair my soul. Although a cherished friend He may be; I know the reparations Belong to me. Don't care what people say Just follow your own way Don't give up and use the chance To return to innocence. -Enigma |

Hi Sonjes, This is perfect, I truly understand what you mean in this poem. I wrote one very much like this called union of souls. Thankyou so much for sharing, Cerenity |

sonjes..my poetic soulmate...(smile)...you KNOW I related to this one...and its an emotionally exceptional poem... Though you are beside me I sleep alone; The chasm between us Seems to have grown. The laughter and love Have dissipated; Leaving me wanting Feeling wasted. All my emotions I long to share; I desire to give To one who cares." thank you SO much for your MANY kind and sweet replies and encouragement of my poems in DP...its nice to have someone who relates so well to my words. take care, janet marie you're really alone at last... you're bored and fading fast, if it's true you'll fall from the past all you'll have to do is ask you'll feel but never be you want and always need price you pay for wanting to see will you have all you've ever dreamed... robin wilson |

Sonjes, Well said. I often wonder though if it is better to feel as you describe in your poem or as I do now, if you choose to leave... I definetly feel more free now, but I can't decide if I'm more lonely now that I'm alone than I was when I was with him... just a thought. I loved your poem though,...thanks for sharing it.  -molly aka sam |

Sonjes~ Emotions of discontent are sad. You express them well. This verse says it all .... 'All my emotions I long to share; I desire to give To one who cares.' ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |

sonjes, I was where you are several months ago. Somewhere, I found the strength to leave...I'm glad I did. My life is very different now, and although it's not where I want it to be, it's better than living a lie. |

You have hit a stone in this wall that I have built. It is true that one should not live a lie but it is also hard not too..great poem! |

where is sonjes... where did she go... someone should tell her... I miss her so...(smile) where did ya go girl-friend...we miss ya pop in with a poem take care, jm The stars shine so bright, now's the time I close my eyes - soft wind touch my face, Cool sand upon the place where I once kissed you And held you close. Now I will reach for the stars... Because Oh my love, that's where you are... Though the storms of black night rage on I still see your face I still feel your lips on mine And though my heart feels all alone without you I still hear you sing to me I still hear your voice on the sea... vertical horizon |
