Memories

I remember the first day my eyes fell on you. 
Saying "your beautiful" -  before a "thank you" and I blushing smile -  you ran off and left me there with nothing else to do.

I remember the day we sat in a tree.
It was the first day we fell inlove, you and me.
We sat there for hours talking about life and its dramas, not knowing the things that's going to harm us.
 
I remember the night when our first kiss left me weak in the knees. 
But with a touch of your hand
you left me there stranded, 
not knowing how to handle it
you gave a sweet little giggle 
and blew out the candle light.

These memories haunt me every night of every day.  

I keep phoning, but you will not answer.
Everything you did to me, doesn't matter.
Only thing I want to have is you with me.
My heart is aching, can't you see?

Everytime I close my eyes, 
Everytime I fall asleep,
Everytime I dream of you
I miss you Rosalind

Everytime I hear your name
Everytime I see your face
Everytime I think of you
I realize that I don't want to live without you.

As a free verse on the subject, and I guess you're still young, I think you did just fine. I see it as a heartfelt write. When it's from the heart, everything just flows. Thanks for the visit to my poem. A belated welcome to Poetry Soup! I hope to read more from you in the coming days. Kim

Hi, Neil, I read your comment at the bottom, you should not be hard on yourself. It's not the best only if you think it is not. However, in my book I think you did a great job, sharing a heartfelt poem for your hearts love Rosalind. I feel this pain is real, thank you for sharing. SKAT
