I did it all for you,
I loved, I cried,
In a way I died,
All for the love of you.

I was always there for you,
I loved you, loved making love to you,
We shared so much,
Now my life is empty.

What didn't I do?
We loved often and well,
We talked day and night,
We laughed, and shared, we were under a spell.

But you have a restless soul,
One is never enough,
I couldn't give you all you needed,
Why is life so rough?

I wanted to be that everything for you,
Wanted to be your beacon, your shining light,
I saw you flirting but pretended not to see,
Now my life is shrouded in never ending night.

If I couldn't keep you happy,
I must be no good at all,
And as I stand on this cliff edge,
No one will catch me when or if I fall.

I want you to save me,
Lead me away from the fall,
From the jagged rocks below,
If only you could give me your all.

Reality hits hard,
Just like those jaggered rocks,
I'm sick of this world and my life,
It's constant pain and knocks.

Blinded by emotion,
I close my eyes,
The wind physically rocking me,
I glance up at the blue and white shredded sky.

Oh honey, Oh God, oh anybody,
Come and save me,
Show me a reason to live,
Something worth saving in me.....

DON'T WORRY I AM NOT SUICIDAL NOT IN THE LEAST, JUST A DESPERATE GIRL KIND OF POEM  



 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......

you do desperation justice in this piece Isis...emotionally strong poem...
now step back from that edge..c'mon over to my house and we'll write desperate chick poems together...
take care, jm

 Now for me some words come easy
But I know that they don't mean that much
Compared with the things that are said when lovers touch
You never knew what I loved in you
I don't know what you loved in me
Maybe the picture of somebody you were hoping I might be

When love goes to the fullest, it is like putting your soul and heart in the other person's hands, and that person has the ability to make or break you..... I thought this was very good writing, with some torrentious views, but..... very very very good!

Thank you for stepping back from the edge. . .I know that it's a great view. . . but take a look at this side and see what's over here. . .

Excellent poem, my friend. . . I too, have felt this way sometimes. . .as you will see. . .

i too, like the opening lines much. And i know the sentiments involved...you dont have to be a chick to be desperate.
Is this poem a companion of your "just one of your harem" piece? It seems so to me. I sense a theme here....

I liked the opening lines as well.  Sets the tone for the rest of the piece. Desparation is an interesting emotion. Blinds a person I think.
You have nice vision for emotion that I see often in your writing.
I am 46 and counting backwards. Plan to stop somewhere around 25 and stay.
Thanks for the nice comments to "When a child dies".  I'm touched by your openness.
Best wishes

JML thanks you are spot on it is a sister piece to the Harem one, well done!!
Danny I was guessing late 30's.  I'm 32 and starting to count backwards myself  
I know you are all here for me but as I said I'm not depressed, just a poem written.
Sven, I count my blessings every day, and in the count there is always you...
Thanks everyone for reading this, glad you all enjoyed it, could relate to it  

 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......

Isis,

WOW!! This one really left me feeling slighly breathless! I loved how this flowed together with such emotion. I am glad that you didn't step over that ledge. We all surely would miss you!! Thanks so much for posting this. It put some things in my own life into perspective.

Take care,
AMY

Isis your poetry is really inspired.  I think you have lots of love to give and you simply want to be loved and appreciated in return.   I loved the style you used with this poem.  Keep writing beautiful poetry like this right from your soul and right from your heart.    James
