Betrayal

What if you knew,
The one you trust,
The one you love
Was with another man
Now soundly sleeping
Right next to you?
What would you do?
If you were me?
Forgive and forget?
And live with regret?
Or just pretend you never saw,
The messages that was sent
When i was away
Only a few months before

You were not my first
I hoped you were my last
Someone that could save me
My angel from above
But just another player
Another selfish succubus
I'm just food for the taking
Grazing stupidly
Standing on this empty field

Letting Go

Memories they say
don't live like people do
What do they mean?
This much I know is true....
My memories are bittersweet
And I
Accept defeat
Loving and letting go
To me was the strongest show
Of love and sacrifice
For I could not bear to have all that fire
Turning to ice...
My dear whenever
You are near
Nothing else seems to matter
And it scares me so....
The soul is always filled with laughter
I lose sight of myself in you
And sometimes wondering what next was I going to do...
Thoughts of running away from myself
Of coming down from the shelf
Run through my mind
No!
I must be crazy!
All this responsibility!
Like children, work, bills, the rent
How could I let a day in idyllic romance be spent
It was all just a dream
I must awaken and face reality
I pray that one day you'll forgive me
My love forever true....
My Knight in royal blue
So I stay behind the palace walls
Trapped down in the dungeon
Shall not banish you to my world
But instead I set you free
Go, my love and go fast!
Get to yourself a nice young lass
She will bear you a young 'un or two
Clean and polish your shoe
Work hard all the day
And then at night you'll play
What d'you need one like me for?

Heart of Stone

Heart oh heart
I recognize you not
You're drained of colour
Completely bled
You smell of rot.....

Your skin so abrasive
Your eyes so vacant
Who's turned you to stone?
Who's stolen your soul?

Oh Heart oh heart
Hang there in the Shadows
Someday the Light
Will cast its spell
And you shall live again....

Heart Shaped Grave

Embedded image from another site

I can still feel your touch caress my skin
Memories trapped in picture frames, the taste of your lips
I thought I could leave this love we had far behind
But the remains of what we use to be are sewn into my mind
As I try to bury all this hurt somewhere deep and softly away
By nailing a broken splintered cross into my heart shape grave
Yesterday was just a dream that I let slip away
Today I hide behind this camouflage beneath my self inflicted pain
If it hurts to love than you could not hate me enough
Tearing through its innocence until nothing is left but dust
To give someone so much emptiness as a gift
You would fill the box with lies then wrap it up with promises
But for what its worth I am grateful to have seen the smile of your face
And so I thank you for always reminding me why I just stay away

“Greatest fear”

To be worse than strangers.
Where masks of enemies.
To bear grudges with bottomless depths.
To cross the other’s path with hesitant steps.
For us to know hate for the other.
Enjoy watching the other suffer.
To hold gaze of resent when our eyes meets the others face.
Where trust is misplaced and our steps we can never retrace.
To be ensnared, wounded by a vengeful spear.
Is my greatest fear.

Deluded still !

dont wish your choices had been more brave
when you stand alone beside my grave
dont reach for that special touch of my hand
when its well entombed on hallowed land
dont long for the sound of my silly mirth
when im laying beneath the fresh-laid turf
dont smile your best smile, eyes all aglow
when my eyes are tight shut, I will not know
dont whisper"I love you" "you were the one"
when my hearing days are over and done
dont waste your tears or heave a sigh
when I've waved your mortal world goodbye

Looking down

your smile i see in every rainbow,your eyes sparkling in the sun
when the birds sing the dawn chorus you sing with each one
the wind is you whispering secrets in my ears
the rain is when you cry those little tears
the moon is a mirror i can see you through
when a star shoots across the sky i know that one is you
one day we ll meet again, but until then i prey
that you are having fun up where the angels play x

Emotions

No matter what you think or say,
you try hard to put things behind you,
your emotions are what get in the way,
and yet because of the one you loved it is hard to do,

The other night I dozed in my chair,
my mind was thinking of you too,
and am sure in my ear, your voice I did hear,
you called my name, startled in my mind I came through,

Sitting there wide awake and no one in view,
heart pounding and pulse racing,
your voice was so clear am certain it was you,
now my mind is twisting and my heart aching,

My emotions have gone yet again all a wry,
feelings rise within me just like they used to do,
it is hard to try and hold the tears, I do not want to cry,
your last words you told me was that we was through,

difficult to get my mind and body together,
I still shake with emotions at the thoughts of you,
the love we had I thought would be forever,
trying to get past you is so very hard to do,

weeks have passed and time has been slowing,
my mind has told me it is all over, I know,
words have not passed between us, am no longer knowing,
but my emotions still hold on to you like some sort of glow,

About this poem:
Have been given lots of advice from many good friends but even that cannot compare to what your emotions do. Why do we find it hard to let go when you felt that everything was right and your heart told you so.

Fading into black

Embedded image from another site



Lost in the wilderness
I can't look back
the sky is dark
fading to black.

A knife in my heart
hard to pull out
it cuts so deep
but I refuse to shout.

Where is the love?
blood dripping to dirt
now i feel nothing
but pain and hurt.

Afraid I stumble and fall
Dear Lord I pray
this is not the end
this world a shade of gray.

I hear the reaper coming around
to put me six feet under
the hard cold ground
clouds lightning and thunder.

Lord, the way I have lost
I'm running out of time
I'll do whatever to pay the cost
the highest mountain I will climb.

Bring my lady into my arms
help me get back on track
without her my life is over
everything fading into black...

Not Meant To Be

There once was a time if I just closed my eyes,
I could see us together as one.
But after these years of growing apart,
I can see that dream is done.
You were the one who knew me inside and out,
And always knew just what to say.
Any problems I had would disappear,
When you said it would all be okay.
There was always a special connection with us,
And these days it seems to be gone.
Whatever we had died a long time ago,
But it's just so hard to move on.
Those times I'd drown in the blue of your eyes,
You never noticed a thing.
There were nights I laid awake and thought,
Of the love our friendship could bring.
No matter how hard I've been trying,
The truth is so hard to see.
I guess it takes a while to let go,
Of something not meant to be.
