Unreachable Touch

Unnattainable relation.
Unreachable touch.
Too much has been lost...
atleast I know this much.

Too much time has gone on by,
too many things you've missed,
too many smiles you didn't see,
and bruises you failed to kiss.

The effect of you is everlasting,
the pain you caused is strong.
Taken all the hope we had
then told us we were wrong.

The horrific displays of anger,
still burning in my heart,
still tearing up my insides,
so wrong of you from the start.

The fear you instilled still lingers,
the cloud in my sky still there,
the foreverness of all you've done,
still burning over here.

Unreachable touch.

This poem has so much raw emotion!  Beautifully written and very expressive.  A very angry retort.

SpitFire~
I found this to be a well written piece
from a heart that certainly has felt pain.
I felt tender touching from a bruised
heart.  
No anger seen here by me ...
just painful memories.

I hope you reach beyond the pain
and find happiness.

It doesnt sound like this touch is still unreachable.. I loved the depth of this piece. It is soooooo pretty. I dont like many pieces like this but this piece was definetely the exception...

Wow SpitFire! This is indeed a very powerful piece, charged with much emotion and pain. I hope that the pain will ease for you, Take Care!

SpitFire~
I am really enjoying watching the
different styles of writing you can
display. This one here is a gem. It has
a lot of in depth emotions entwined into
one powerful intense piece! It is apparent
to the reader that this comes from a
deep place of strong feelings. You write
them out exceptionally well. A shadow of
sadness lingers in this but also anger.
Good poem, very good my friend.
take care,
