Lend me your eyes so I can see The reason you chose him over me Lend me his ears to hear your voice Why you chose him made me second choice Lend me his heart does mine not beat His must be whole and mine incomplete
Lend me his smile should I just run I must be boring and he's too fun Lend me his lips to feel your skin It hurts to lose when he always wins Lend me his hands to feel your touch It must be love and not just a crush
Lend me his time he spends with you So I can smile when I'm with you Lend me his tears so you can see How much you would have meant to me Lend me his gifts that you both share I'd give you mine if I was there
Lend me his mind that captured you Will he write kind words like I do Lend me his age he's young I see Now I know why you're afraid of me Lend me his life just to be with you So you can see what I am going through!

About this poem:
THIS IS MY TAKE,MY EMOTIONAL MELTDOWN,WHEN A GIRL YOU REALLY FALL IN LOVE WITH..CHOOSES SOMEONE ELSE (OVER YOU) I NEVER FELT PAIN AND ANGUISH LIKE THIS BEFORE...SHE MAY HAVE HER REASONS,BUT I WOULD LIKE HER TO STEP INTO MY EYES.

yeah! poet number 1 i've read your poems,and i know you've been there before...they call us emo guys,but we can express ourselves better than anyone!!!
Great lyrics has a Brandon Heath melody which is awesome and doesnt take away from this at all.

fjames9701...thanks for your comment,this was a raw write of mine,when a girl you love,decides to leave you,and get engaged to someone else.....its more than a slap in the face..its a stab through the heart!

i was going to post this on her f.b. page....but i'm not sure what her reaction would be.
Its very beautiful and maybe if you knew what was in your heart it may have had a different outcome... but then perhaps not.. so sorry for your pain..

Very sad poem... these things happen though and it hurts like hell...I have been hurt and I have hurt a man very badly too.

billiegirl and odette67..thanks for your support,i think poets and song writers write there best and darkest thoughts when in this state of mind,i think most would agree.

Hi again my friend,i think once one masters the art of lyrics and combines that with strong metaphors,the effect it gives is soothing and a most potent sophisticated write,again a truly remarkable piece where lyrics and metorphoric use are entwined,awesome

hi poet#1 i listen to so much music,that it actually effects the way i write,though i love the free verse way of writing,my heart is set on lyrics and rhyming,it comes naturally to me,thanks again,and i'll see what else i can come up with.
