Between the folds of my sheets at night
there lies a breaking heart
the end of a day of companion thoughts;
a bitter friend from the start

a twist, a turn, a fluttering eye,
a cheek with trail of tear
this empty well of stain and damp;
a pain towards which I stare

A love professed, an untruth confessed,
warmth reacheth within the soul
but her heart’s abide her past’s denied,
and my love she bought and sold

yet love conquers all, so truths befall under the frail of simple guise
hold my heart on near my love, my dear,
this tragic fantasize

Wow - great poem, aslanta.  

"yet love conquers all, so truths befall under
the frail of simple guise"

Wondeful line - ouch - I need a band-aid after reading that one...

Welcome to Dark Passions!  I can't wait to see more of your work.

this is a very emotional and well expressed poem...perfect for here in DP...welcome,its nice to have you here...
take care, jm

 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...

Welcome indeed to our forum family.  This had bite, I like that!!  Well done  

 May the world hug you today,
With it's warmth and love.
I pray it whispers a joyful tune in your heart,
That tell you there is a friend sitting in another corner of the world,
Wishing you well and
wishing you love......
