Fighting, alone and afraid,
Soothe, ease the pain,
Feelings just delayed,
Awaiting, awakening,
Desperate for love,
This world, this pain,
Not enough.

I am without you.

Drinking to forget,
Drowning in regret,
The pain of being sober,
Remembering we’re over,
You; reflected in her eyes,
Like truth dancing in lies,
Things I should have said,
When we lay within that bed,

When words weren’t all that we shared,
When we loved, needed, craved and cared,
Tears mean more than diamond rings,
I’ve told you before; about such things,

Don’t buy me happiness, you can’t buy me love,
A kiss is what I want, it’s more than enough,
When you leave me,
I’m left with just a memory,
Of a moment of your time,
Something stolen; such a crime,
Look me deep within the eye,
And tell me you don’t mind,
That I love you,

That I love you. [comments] => 3 [counter] => 215 [topic] => 2 [informant] => Ruby2sdy [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 5 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => LovePoetry )

Not Enough

Too much, for words,
Fighting, alone and afraid,
Soothe, ease the pain,
Feelings just delayed,
Awaiting, awakening,
Desperate for love,
This world, this pain,
Not enough.

I am without you.

Drinking to forget,
Drowning in regret,
The pain of being sober,
Remembering we’re over,
You; reflected in her eyes,
Like truth dancing in lies,
Things I should have said,
When we lay within that bed,

When words weren’t all that we shared,
When we loved, needed, craved and cared,
Tears mean more than diamond rings,
I’ve told you before; about such things,

Don’t buy me happiness, you can’t buy me love,
A kiss is what I want, it’s more than enough,
When you leave me,
I’m left with just a memory,
Of a moment of your time,
Something stolen; such a crime,
Look me deep within the eye,
And tell me you don’t mind,
That I love you,

That I love you.

This is so sad and emotional, and packed with feeling. Something I think a lot of us can relate too. Your words are so heartfelt. Sue x

Love has a way of being blind as the adage goes, but then we see only what we want 2 see now don't we? hence the heart mimics it's possesr quite efficantly . A very provacitive write, never give up on love even if it gives up on you. beautiful write. *****

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. Â©
