I'll miss you

 

I didn't run away

that alone is a lie

choking on my words

I didn't want to say goodbye

 

Looking in your eyes

as we laugh and joke among our freinds

I should've remembered thats when goodbye started

thats where the chapter was to end

 

every moment passed by quickly

I yearned for just another day

more time for my mind to lie

for me to think you'd be there to stay

 

I knew how these lies affected me

but yet I still denied

that the piece of my heart I had given

to you, dear friend, would soon be leaving my side

 

I walked with you to the door

the last moment to say goodbye

head hanging I turned away

I could no longer look you in the eye

 

the ride home was unbearable

that sad questioning look in your eyes

the memory haunted me, it haunted me

as I stared out at the dark moonless skies

 

Now I sit here waiting

how many days has it been since you've gone?

too many, but your memory still lingers

reminding me that I was wrong

 

Your words now echo in my head

"You may never get a second chance"

making me wish I'd said Goodbye

even said it in a glance

 

But too embarrassed and sad

my eyes were glued firmly to the ground

I can still feel your eyes on me

sadly another heart bound

 

Now I live with hope

 that a  second chance will come

and until then with your memory

my heart will beat like a steady drum

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Author's Note

well I can't figure out an ending to this, probably cause there was no real ending yet to the emotion, but what do you think of it?

Till I can look into your eyes.
And tell you.
Thank you for the love.

I don't know these words jump at me. I left people because of moving and ever because of War. We met again. Life can be fair. Poem is very good. A sad story written with gentle words. I like the ending in the poem. I like your poetry. With heart and hope.

I like how you use your imagination so well here.....you use good words. You must really put your heart into what you write.

Just the same as I had starting telling you before, this is wonderful. It is a true express of emotion, and you really bare your soul. Saying goodbye is one of the hardest things we as humans have to endour...., this is beautiful. I really, really like it.

Great start! I really like the way you express your emotions and aren't afraid to show them through your artistic nature. Like I was telling you, it's never easy to say goodbye.... But this is a pretty good way to go about it, and the person you are writing this for should truly love it. It flows beautifully throughout and holds so much emotion. I love it! Thank you for sharing! :)

Great start. I know the feeling. Let your inspiration flow. It's what poetry is all about. Funny how our hearts can create so much emotion in words we can share. I've yet to find an answer why... but for now, it's a uniquely human device. That's all I can explain.

Great work. Keep it up. You keep getting better and better.
