Be So Kind To Me

be so kind to me
for i was so kind to you
love me
as i loved you,
(...but you never loved me...
you never saw my love for you-

-for you were blind and still are-

my heart trembles and takes me out of this place-
yet nothing seems real without you...
never did i think i went on without you
(see me now with gold
  hear me roar like a lion- but surely pride shall die out...
and i shall walk along the gutter
with a weak mind set back on you and only you

only wish that you'd be so kind to me
for i was so kind to you
and love me
as i loved you

(but it is hard to love a rock
and its hard to water stone- and watch it bloom into a rose-
just be kind
and i shall smile another day
and keep away from the garden of the dead

Sometimes all We ask for.is to be loved as We have loved but We can be taken forgranted..Sometimes We might stay a little longer waiting for a garden to bloom..Other times It would be wiser to leave that garden and find another one..It maybe hard to do ..but sometimes only getting over some facts will help us make it through....A very deep and profound poem Chris..Have a happy New year

Chris What a wonderful and creative write. I could feel all the emotions in this poem flowing out of you onto and into the readers soul and heart. Feelings from love, desire, heartache, sorrow, longing, and memories are rolled into one great write. Nice job my friend Hugs
