You hit me harder than i thought.

This is a poem about how you sometimes realise too late someone means the world to you.

You really hit me harder than I thought,

I actually can’t stand it when you’re not,

In my arms, singing of key.

Or the one and lonely beacon, in my Tenerife sea.

 

You really hit me harder than I thought,

I actually can’t stand it that you’re not,

Walking with me, on the road to holding on.

In a ever spinning world, you turn darkness to dawn.

 

You really hit me harder than I thought,

I actually can’t stand it that I’m not,

You’re reason to smile, even when it’s hard.

 That you’re heart doesn’t skip a beat, the moment I depart.

 

You really hit me harder than I thought,

I actually can’t stand it that I’m not,

Able to look you in the eyes, and see inside your soul.

And forget everything for a second, and become one solid whole.

 

 

I said I don’t crave you,

but my truth begins to tremble.

The walls are coming down,

Of my own destructive temple.

 

 

I realized I need you,

But now it’s to late.

So the skies will keep crying,

And my eyes will do the same.

This is so touching. And the format fits the poem so well.

"I said I don't crave you,/ but my truth begins to tremble./ The walls are coming down,/ Of my own destructive temple." Powerful! And honestly when I read "but my truth begins to tremble" i teared up. The one thing that we really have is what we believe is truth and when that fails....what else is there?...

"I realized I need you,/ But now it's to[o] late./ So the skies will keep crying, And my eyes will do the same"
I hope you didn't expect anyone to be able to read this without crying. It tells such a sad love story with a beautifully heart wrenching honesty. I am in awe of your work

This is wonderful and I thank you for sharing

I CANT STOP READING IT! (ok i can but i dont want to)
WONDERFUL
