3 Am

Three in  morning wide awake
How much more of this pain can I take
I prayed this pain would never come
But here it is, I wish  I could go numb
I look at the sky and wonder why
Now I just  ask to die when I  look at the sky  
Why did you turn out to be that kind of guy
I believed  you loved me
Why didn't I see 
 before it was too late for me
Now sweet death set me free 
For it is too late for me can't you see
Look at the clock now it's quarter pass three......

TRACEY, Welcome to Poetry soup, I hope you enjoy the community. Here, you will find friendly poets who enjoy supporting one another. I myself, enjoy reading and commenting those who want to be read. The only time I give constructive criticism is when a poet desires it. However, if for some reason the poem is not my field I will guide you to someone who is more qualified than I. Stop by and read one of my poems if you like. My poems are not perfect, but I have a feeling you might like one. I encourage you to check out the contest page and read to receive comments. Tell me a little about your poetic skills if you like. It will be my pleasure to follow and read every poem you post from here on :) We are Lucky To Have you. Your New Poet Friend @-> LINDA <-@
