As I ....

As i sit here

pretending that im fine

trying hard not to drink from the sweet vine

that temptation doesn't hesitate but to offer to me

sulking the hours away

with a smile on my face to lead you  astray

trying my hardest not to whine

but cant help but to hurt inside

see, i hardly see you

i contact you all the time

i feel like  a nag sometimes

i shouldn't bother you this much

but its not not my fault that i feel such

i always hide from love

but this time it gave me the strongest hug

told myself i won't budge

but here i am loving you so deeply

that only sleep can help me forget about your existence

As i drink from the river of life

i see you instead of my reflection

then my heart starts to ache like its been stabbed with a pocket knife

how can an emotion have such affection?

that even a little peck gives satisfaction..

As i sit here and think of you

i can only see the good things you do

with all your love and care

a life without you is a one i cannot bare..

"As i drink from the river of life

A splendid read and write...:)............................

[Coyote Poetry]

I like the flow of thoughts and the powerful desire of love and contentment. I like the words. "As i drink from the river of life." The repetition gave strength and purpose to the poem. No weakness in the outstanding poem of love.
