Sitting in the dark alone
Trying to remember
While the tears run down my cheeks
The taste of your faithless kiss
A fading memory of what used to be
Confused I wonder what 'tis I really miss
Could it be I long for a ficticious fantasy
But whatever we had I never wanted it to end
And who's to blame
Was it you or me who made the kill
Or was it him, the slimy snake
The serpent in our own garden of eden
Oh well, it doesn't matter anymore
It's all over anyway
But God how I miss the feeling!
It was happiness and misery in perfect harmony
It was you and me, a perfect match
Seemed like nothing could ever part us
Like no-one in the world could ever harm us
Yet we were smashed apart
And now I would give anything
For it to become the way it used to be
To turn back time and fall in love again
To sink deep into your loving arms
But hopelessly I realize
I'll have to spend eternity in misery
Pining for you my sweet one
My one and only love
I'll never find anyone to replace you
Never I'll be the same again
And I can never find it in my heart to forgive myself
For losing you
My bride of bliss and darkness

Broken,
this si so lovingly sad and beautiful!! Some where, some how, in some time the love will reach out to you again from some one you least expect. My grandmother always told me...when you are not looking and least expecting...love will find you.
Until...

I am tears of pain, tears of Death.

I agree with a-alibaster that this is sad.
This is a VERY sad poem and it is sad because it is a perfect mirror of how breaking up with someone you were close to feels. That feeling is SO sad...

I can't agree that everything comes alright in the end though... I've found you can never fully forget when you have been that close to someone. You look back and STILL regret.

But someone else does fill most of the space that is left, in the end...

A crimson pool, so warm and deep
Lulls me to an endless sleep
Your hand in mine,
-I will be brave
Take me from this earth
An endless night,-thi

I'm lost in awe Broken...this is amazing. This hits home...I mean like right on the mark...so I can tell you honestly that although this person will always remain in your memory..you'll find someone else to love. I can promise you that...just give yourself some time and patience will do the rest.

A wonderful poem. Sad, but nonetheless very beautiful.....keep that head up!



I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

I hate your socks. I'd like to burn them!
