David Lustrup Poet I do not know?

Radiant

when i was with you

i was an emotional billionaire

with overflowing accounts full of joy

now that you gone

im emotionally homeless, starving

and so alone with nothing.

i walk the streets of life in rags

empty shell

bankrupt.......

 

every day is poison

every night is its side effect

tears burn my face,

as the memories play in my head

 

this ghastly pain will take me

one day surely erase me

my pulse will fade

for its lifeforce has abandoned me

 

please reconsider

i dont think that you know what youve done.

please pull me back

from the other side of the viel.....

 

i held you closely

when you were crying

i tasted your tears

and i pulled you closer still

i rocked you back and forth

i cleared you bloodshot eyes

cheek to cheek 

my heart flowing with love for you

 

i cry to god

that he will show you

that im not worthless

that my love's truly real

it burns inside me

like a million sunstars

radiating

it's warmth into your soul
