Do You Ever Miss Me?

I miss you, even though its not right

Siting alone; it comes back to me.
Our story; our journey together-
Is like a picture of failed destiny;
We were perfect with each other.

Our pains; tears; our strength;
Our promises to stick around.
Our joys; our fears; our faith;
All burnt down to the ground.

Your divine, flawless inner beauty,-
Defies the thought of imperfection.
Your innocence and purity,
Your sincere love and affection.

Silence; staging my dreams' act.
Emptiness; the me you left behind.
My love for you isn't truth, its fact;
If out of sight, you're on my mind.

Do you ever really miss me too;
The love we shared; anything?
The things we did; like I do;
Us; together; what I'm missing?

I was all I could be with you near.
Loving, brave, caring and strong.
But now, my heart chocks on fear,-
Of being unable to correct my wrong.

Not just one of a kind, not at all.
You were your own special kind.
The girl I love with my entire soul;
One like none my hands will find.

Your every trace of imperfection-
Complimented one of my own.
Like fragments of fate's deception;
The envy time has in looking on.

Not my lover, not my princess,
Not my queen or mere woman.
I adored you like my goddess,
Yet, I only wished to be your man.

Do you ever look back to you and I;
Pray that we'll be together again?
Do you ever lay down and cry,-
Like I do; cuz of this intense pain?

Your afri-CAN, curvy structure;
Your warm and loving heart.
Without you in my picture,-
My pride is a blurry start.

Do you ever wish for another chance,-
To fall in my macho arms again?
Do you spare a thought, even once-
Or am I now, like those other men?

Moving on is a hurtful thought,
Cuz I'll never cease to love you.
I sit and wish I'd have fought;
I wish you don't love him too.

I choke on words I didn't mention.
There's a lot I want to say to you,
But for now, I have, but a question;
Do you ever miss me, like I miss you?

Keep Smiling

But now, my heart chocks on fear,- Did you mean 'chokes'

you are writing in a particular style that acts like a cage. The more quatrains you produce the more trapped you become in keeping the theme going without repitition. Still an interesting write

[Alexander143]

I intend to learn grow beyond just one writing style. But in order to write in a different style, I'll need help in learning about the style... This is the part where you come in...

Look at some of the poems on the site that do not use rhyme.

Aye, aye capt'n!

There's a lot of power in simplicity:
"Do you ever miss me, like I miss you? "
Simple words ring very true
