Closing My Eyes

I still feel your kiss
Your arms around my waist
The warmth of your skin
And your hair in my face.

I wish I could tell you
I love you one more time,
But I know you don’t want me
And it’s hard to close my mind.

You were the girl of my dreams
Who crept into my life.
I was ready for you to stay
But my love did not suffice.

Such a beautiful face
And a gorgeous mind,
But who was I to think
I’d be the only one you’d find?

you remind of someone i know with the vanity of the beautiful face and gorgeous mind, she used to tell people on digg that she had a mental disease that she did not get treated, cut her arms and so forth, anyhow on one posting on digg she claimed that her insanity was actually bordering on being a genius LOL the posting on digg mentioned the similarity of genius and insane, and she was that vain to claim she had a mind of a genius..imagine? sorry you reminded me of her..
