Playing Gentle On My Mind

Playing Gentle On My Mind

A Poem by Inyourshadow
"

Love can never die

"

Your shirt still lays crumbled
at the foot of last nights bed,
and my ears are still ringing
from the words that went unsaid.

Thr scent of sweat still lingers
in the creases where you slept,
and the pillow stained forever
by the secret tears you wept.

You swore you'd never leave me
and as long as I draw breath,
your love will still surround me
till we are joined once more in death.

Your passing but a moment
between morning kiss and sweet goodnight,
so until again you hold me
I hold your image close and tight.

Such a heartfelt poem and the tenderness felt is dear. I really like this. You may want to fix Thr to The though. Tiny typo. I have many so don't swweat it. It is a very nice poem.

This is very lovely and meaningful.. Most people write of the giddy thoughts and fluffy warmth of romance your different approach is very refreshing (:

this makes me think of late night trysts with a former love. One you still have feelings for but know they are only passing through. Wonderfully penned...
