despair

i love you so much
all i want is you back
another chance
is all i ask.
you love me too
and for what its worth
i know im not alone
you too,must hurt.

can't eat
can't sleep
my mind is a racing
can't think
can't focus
your heart too, must be aching.

don't tell me to move on
have you completely lost your mind
how can i convince you
you were born to be mine.
you can't have met another
you can't wish for me the same
but i forgive you cause i love
dispite your sounding insane.

minds racing
but i'll fix this
you won't feel a thing
just my loving kiss.
i won't say how
just trust me as you once did
i cant have you thinking
like you, my minds twisted.

as i stand here loading
i do so with two
iv not become selfish
i have one for you.
but isnt that typical
thinking of you as i always do
but how can i not
when im so very much, in love with you.

About this poem:

love the one your with and when you look for love dont look to be ones everything because saddly, too quickly too easily you can become any of the two in my poem... either one, the one pulling the trigger or the one at the other end of the gun.

Well itchy your poem was kind of scary for me. I don't think I want to be loved that much by someone. But I must say you are quite the gal. Even tho you are hurt you are still willing to share

hi happygolucky

im afraid i am not quiet the gal you might expect me to be, i dont write many poems here but when i do, there very seldom with MY emotions, dont know why that is' perhaps i am without any

funny though, i can put myself in the shoes of others and feel either their comfort or their limp, strange isnt that? but there you go, my dad' he always did say i was the strange one .. sorry for scaring you or if iv now disapointed you

It takes a great amount of courage of your heart to put your thoughts right out there as you have done, a complete expression of devotion to not only another but also being completely honest with yourself. I commend you for sharing such passion even if that passion can't always be measured with the same yardstick as some simple emotion can.

Nothing wrong with you itchy. I do not always write about my
experiences either. Some of my funniest poems did
not have a thing to do with me or anyone I know.
And you do not disappoint me. It makes your poetry even more thrilling now knowing that you write empathy for others. I think empathy is the right
word. Hope your holidays are fantastic for you.

Great poem itchy.. Perhaps one thing we don't like to admit in relationships is that no one person can take care of all our needs. We can fulfill each other in many ways but not all of them by any stretch. A person will only be as true to us as they will be to their own convictions. It is dependant on the root of their convictions whether or not they will or can have a sustaining relationship with us. People enter relationships putting their whole heart and soul and trust into human nature which is a dangerous proprosition..

It is often when we reach too far in our expectations of love is when we are truly left holding an empty bag of broken promises. There was nothing to suggest at all any safety net because of the fleeting nature of love which is precious but not always the most secure investment. Love is sometimes a little akin to making a bad investment with nothing but the best intensions. There is no telling how it will turn out, but those not in the game doesn’t even have a chance. Look around and hold close those people who want us and need us in life.
