Not quite a love story

more words

Flowers in hair,

Matching the red of her cheeks,

Diamonds on her neck,

Matching the elegance of her nature,

 

The bluest eyes you have ever seen,

Loving me with no limits,

Waiting so patiently for me,

To catch up, anxious mind and spirit,

 

She is the other half of me,

A book so open, I know her soul,

How she stays, one of many questions,

Loving me, the book forever closed,

 

Guarded expressions,

Words with many meaning,

Afraid to love so deeply,

For fear of being left alone,

 

Drowning in the dark of ocean,

Crying out silently for her warmth,

Watching her walk away, sadly,

It would be all my fault,

 

My deepest fears, and darkest thoughts,

Pushing me towards the inevitable,

The dreams merging with reality,

I’ll lose her one way or another,

 

Her warmth slipping away,

I want to hold on, but can’t,

Screams drowning in my ears,

Tears killing my cheeks once again,

 

I watch from afar, the tears falling,

Down her soft cheeks, a sad smile,

Graces her face when eye contact doth meet,

I broke my angel, with flowers in her hair,

 

She couldn’t change my demons,

Hear words fell deaf to my fears,

And my heart whimpers every day,

But it is no match for a mind of death,

 

Leaving her was the only option,

To let her live again, with no limits,

Not held down by the angst of me,

A man unable to fight for the flowers she loved.

Hard to release the people and things we had loved.
"My deepest fears, and darkest thoughts,
Pushing me towards the inevitable,
The dreams merging with reality,
I’ll lose her one way or another, "
The above lines. I understood. I have walked away from things I still miss. Thank you dear poet for sharing the amazing poetry.

This one is particularly amazing :P

Sometimes it's the fear of losing someone that inevitably makes us lose them..

Eventually it's always for the best though

Afraid to love so deeply,
For fear of being left alone

There are many here who have the same fears. I know because they have blocked me and others when there was no reason for it. It's a fear of getting too close to people.

Something in their background when they were hurt by someone made them that way. I can see the same thing in this poem. Some haunted past tells you to leave.

You did a fine job on this.

Loved the first few stanzas...were we get to know and visualize this character. And the impact of the last stanzas too. Thought-provoking...
