Never Ending

This is a poem I wrote long ago and although I no longer feel the same way, it was something that compelled me to write and I thought I'd share. I give up I was so careless You try so hard You strive so blindly Your will of strife Lost in reality I think I better leave Lie to you and to myself Please answer my cries Those silent cries Those cries that tare me apart Answer them before I leave Can I gaze into your eyes and fall into my coffin with a smile? Those beautiful eyes, crystal, yet so murky So deep yet so plain Can I gaze at my dreams and dread my loss? Or shall you answer these cries? I offered my heart You gave it back in pieces I offered my words You gave them back as whispers I offered my ears and never again was I to hear anything as beautiful as your voice Can I have a nod? Maybe a kiss goodbye Or a wink I guess I better leave I’m leaving my heart behind I’m leaving my emotions I’m leaving my dreams My careless self behind. © Samir Georges 2004
