I miss being in what we know as love.
That feeling that warms your entire being
and makes your laugh tingle with sensation.

That unmistakable rush that can make men do silly things.

I can still remember though, like it was yesterday.
The pain free happiness of euphoric expression, knowing that what you said MENT something to someone else.

Yet now it is a faint reminder
of what once was
and will never be.
This is not better to have loved and to have lost as it serves more to handicap me.

Now that I have loved and lost how am I to move on? How now am to work though it when all I know is wrong?

My life is a tradgedy with a certian end in sight
Being alone ain't so bad is the depression I've got to fight.

But how did it happen, what could I have done?
Why were my dreams annihilated, why was my love not won?

I thought I had it in me to be a rightous man,
I thought I could have been there for her when the shit hit the fan.

But all my past experiance set me up for the fall
I didn't see it coming when my best friend took it all.

I walked blindly to my doom like walking in a trap
And when it came, my rage did it reign and I fell victum to attack.

So now my heart is empty with nothing left to mend
My how peaceful it can be when you finally reach your end.

Unorthodox mabey, but I grow on you.

I know you say you do this for fun.. but this is a great poem. I think it could use a little work  but other than that I loved the way you chose to write this. YOu used a simple form to write but it is more difficult to control when writing two lines (that is if your thought is longer than the line lol) but this was a really good poem.

Thanks for posting it. I enjoyed it very much.
hope to hear more
