Lonely Nights

For the record, this particularpoem has nothing to do with circumstances going on in my life nor anyone I know. It jus sort of, came to me one night whle I was laying down.

If only I could be there now,

Standing by your side.

We could go, just disappear

A whiser in the night.

 

Leaving pain and sorrow behind

We would fly away.

Telling no one where we'd go,

We've no reason to stay.

 

Still you say you will not go,

You hate to see her cry.

Do you think that laying here

Will ever make things right?

 

You'll stay with her despit my plea;

My cry falls on deaf ears.

Then you'll come to me with tear-filled eyes

And I'll kiss away your fears.

My interpretation of this piece is this:

A man who is in love with two women. He's in love with YOU, but can't leave his WIFE who he may not be "IN love" with anymore; but still loves very much. On the flip side, You're in love with him dispite the fact that he can't leave his wife, you love him so much that you are powerless against the emotions that seeing him brings each time he come to you. Yet you will give anything to steal him away for yourself.

It's a timeless story of forbidden love. I think you captured the strong emotions that are present in such a relationship very well. Excellent write!

speaks of fixing someones broken heart.

You should lay down more often then, because this poem was fantastic!
I loved the last line the best.
Keep up the excellent work.

It's always nice to find a poem that has perfect rhyme and rhythm.

But even if it didn't, this poem would be pretty awesome. :3
