Straight From the Heart

That burning passion within The unexplainable feelings you sense when they walk towards you The loss of breath and the strangulation you feel gripping around your throat Choking off every last bit of air you have left to your name You feel like collapsing to your knees and crying Wishing you had them back in your arms and running your fingures through their soft hair You wish you could go back in time to re-live those treasuring moments of bitter sweetness You can hear their voice echoing inside your head at night when your trying to relax Your dreamless nights filled with tears and pain You outstretch your hand beckoning, begging for them to come back Memories sharp as daggers, peircing your flesh As they look away from you eachtime The warmth they gave you before is now gone You feel like your body has become a corpse to rot forever When you see then with another You feel so betrayed and furious Wanting them back more then anything You would give up everything you had left just to let them know you cared and still hurt You want so badly for them to just take the loneliness away Nothing else can be done Nothing else will work Your lost Your alone Your scared You cry for help but no one listens You feel like dying Even though they know that deep in your heart they still have that special mark But they'll never know what they meant to you so you write these words Straight from the Heart.

I've been there and done that Rene. I know where your write is coming from, but I am a little more callus to natural love. It's the higher logical Love that means more to me now. God bless you. Sincerely, Moses

Rene I love this poem because it reminds me of you and I. Very well written. I almost cried when I read this poem. I felt an emptiness being filled in my heart when I read these words but then they left when I realized the truth that still haunts my memories...
