Yesenia

When we first laid in my bed, you asked the simple question,

“How are you still single?”

I fell in love with a ghost and I didn't know it 'till she was gone...

I love you and I miss you,

But if I think about you one more time "

I might just blow my mind

Was I so blind to let you into my life?

Without a call you've walked out.

Where have you gone?

Is there a heart never to belong?

Was I wrong to let my heart believe that you were the right one?

My love is a lie because you are my love,

So please give me a lie.

First comes a sigh,

Then the tears fall from my eyes,

Then follows a cry.

All I ever wanted was to press your heart against mine.

I want to understand,

But how can I if you don't keep me in your plans?

You say you can't keep this going...

What the Hell does that even mean?

Living without meaning because you lost the meaning of living with me.

And I hate the tick-tocks because you are not mine within this time.

I know what I want,

And I want you now!

Are you waiting for someone who won't want you?

I need to know!

The continual silence...

I'm losing sleep because I'm losing you,

So I'm losing me!

Was I crazy to believe that we were meant to be?

Can't you see that I am hurting?

I know that our love is true,

But the truth is "

I'll never be able to exist with you.

At this point in my life,

All of my blessings feel as if they weren’t for me.

I can't lay in my bed without seeing you by my side.

To be honest I just need you to be honest.

Please tell me if you want me to be one with the forgotten.

To live forever without my forever has left my heart rotten…

This is why...

Our love was well worth the misery though...

I hate it when this type of story keeps repeating over and over. Nearly everyone goes through something like this and its kind of sad that many people can relate to this poem. It is so sad when one falls in love truly and deeply and the other person just leaves because it never meant nothing to them.
"You say you can't keep this going...
What the Hell does that even mean?" They leave you thinking like this. Your poem made me think about all of this and how I've seen this happen to many friends and people I know. Great job! This is a very emotional piece of writing that screams its words out loud.

Very sad indeed and I'm still and probably will not ever understand, that's life huh...
This was one that I needed to write, so that I could slowly move on. I still miss her.

[Celie Rose]

It's hard getting over past loves. Feel the turmoil of what you went through. Letting go is hard...holding on is even harder. Nicely written. Keep writing.

[sinNsincerity]

Very much so.

[Tag_YoureDead]

[sinNsincerity]

Thank you Rudi!

[T. R. Ash]

There's definitely a point where every one experiences this and you painted it perfectly

[sinNsincerity]

Thank you so much for reading Ms. Ash, I really glad you'd enjoyed it.

[jeannemarie coulter]

Love like everything in life
is real
That means
downs and high highs
You have to be wise enough to sit in silence through the downs
and talk in the height of it
I love this expressive piece
You are a very much involved man

[sinNsincerity]

Thank you Nisreen!

[Sultrysoul]

Wow very intense. I love every emotion put in this poem. Thank you for sharing.

[sinNsincerity]

Thank you for reading Ms. Sultry. I am a very emotional person and I hide it everyday because most will think I'm crazy and poetry is the only place where it's okay for me to offer my madness to until I find the right women who will love me for me just as I will for her...

[Sultrysoul]

That's beautiful and emotions are who we are.

[Gee]

Heartache tinged with bitterness floods from this excellent piece of writing.Sweet.

[sinNsincerity]

A great way to sum it up, Thank you!
