I look into the past
beyond memories
to the long night
into your heart

I see what i missed
What was one here
That now is gone
How i miss you still

How did we change
Did we, did you
Did I looking back
I have lost, We.

Do you see me Now
all i have become
just a bitter soul
without a heart

Can i hear you breath
In the long nights
your breathe soft
on my exposed neck

You took more
than i could give
more than you should
And now im left alone

Still I love
All you are
all you were
I cannot forget

Your eyes
biteing into me
Your lips
Inviteing me in

Will you return
To see this broken
To see me cry
"Can we be all we had"



  Hello darkness, my old friend,
I've come to talk with you again,
Because a vision softly creeping,
Left its seeds while I was sleeping,
And the vision that was planted in my brain
Still remains
Within the sound of silence.

No my friend, Spit has it right "HAD" is the word here that counts,
it can never be the same,
"BUT!!!" it could be better or it could be worse, But never the same.
If in the first case fly with it, if in the second use it as a stepping stone.
Again this is a great expression my friend.
Joel.

 I howl a mournful song, that echos within my chambered heart, for all to read? nay for all to feel.

beautiful poem of regret and longing walter.
tender and gentle writing here.
I like this fragile side from your poets pen.
this is one of my favs by you.
take care kind poet,
jm

 It's amazing
How you make your face just like a wall
How you take your heart and turn it off
How I turn my head and you lose it all ...
And it's unnerving
How one move just puts me by myself
There you go just trusting someone else
Now I know I put us both through hell ...
I'm not sayin
That there was nothing wrong
I just didn't think you'd ever get tired of me
And I'm not sayin
We ever had the right to hold on
I just didn't wanna let you get away from me.
