Agony

You don't see the tears 

You don't see the pain

You only see the sunshine 

And the big beaming smile

You may think I'm wane

Having fun at your expense 

My heart is heavy with the truth 

How much it cares for you 

 

I can see the agony in your eyes sometimes

When you don't want to meet my gaze

I won't let you live like that 

So I'm walking away 

I wish you'd stop me 

I wish we were brave 

Wish we could have it all

And not compensate 

 

I yearn for your presence

Dream of you everyday 

I want to hold you in my arms 

Caress your beautiful face 

Taste your sweet lips

Be held in your arms 

Listen to your heartbeat 

And fall asleep with you

Hi SM,
I see that you read and review 4 of my poems and so I am checking yours out.
I too have a poem called Agony, which you might like to read...
This is another sad~ longing for love lost..
It does help to write out ones feelings...

Thank you Lisa for taking the time to read my poems. I'm just starting so quite new to this. I did read your 'Agony' and believe I commented on it too .. did like it very much.

You are most welcome...Just looked back to see if I had a review from you on my Agony but there is none?
I always read and review...because reviewing is so very important.

You're right, I have not read it :) but just did... it is all too familiar sometimes ... the scenario you have used to describe 'Agony' .... Check my review. Tc
