If you're gone

If you're gone

A Poem by ForgetMeTomorrow

Leave it to me

to be

so ridiculous

and emotional

and desperately wanting something

only to work for a week

to not want it anymore

and all I have to hear

is your voice

and I'm gone

and my work is destoryed

You had me at

"you're beautiful"

I had you at

"I know"

You said I wouldn't be lonely anymore

All I could say was
"so?"

I knew who you were

and what I wasn't

and I still believed

every single

goddamn word you said

But now you're gone

and here I stand

without you

and I still don't know

what to do

How painfully beautiful.

I too remember that moment, "You had me at ... you're beautiful," melting at such sweet, loving words. I can close my eyes and picture that moment, and I remember feeling complete. But how painful when he's gone and you are left, "here I stand ... without you," feeling completely alone and sometimes lost.

wow a great piece on break ups. its very subtle and powerful.

You had me at
"you're beautiful"
I had you at
"I know"

praising a woman's beauty really doesn't mean anything .....theres millions of pretty women...we can say that as an only compliment.

I knew who you were
and what I wasn't
and I still believed
every single
goddamn word you said
But now you're gone
and here I stand
without you
and I still don't know
what to do

sometimes we guys just say the right things at the right moment....knowing in the back of heads thats what u want to hear...... once we know u like us we are ready to move on to the next. great piece.
