You Were the Purpose of My Life

You were the purpose of my life you were the reason of my smile Without you I m hollow, I can t swallow I Can't eat, why shouldn't I let out of breath? There s only one thing which is grieve You were the reason why I smile I still remember you shouting fighting It was like a lightning But everytime I woke up which was usually at nine I still remember the apologies in your eyes telling me everytime that it was fine You just don t know how lonely I m without you You just don t know how much I ve cried every second waiting for you You were the purpose of my life Without you I can t eat,I don t want to go to bed to sleep The pressure I feel is very deep Oh again it s the grieve I still clearly remember your blue beautiful eyes with blonde hairs Your perfect skin and your body language and talks absolutely fair You gave me the time of my life Giving me a purpose to live Making me who I m now But my smile which was with you is nowhere to found

A sadly beautiful and emotional first poem posted here at PS Faraz. The raw ache of your heartbreak is palpable and your poetic expression is so poignant.. Your last stanza really reaches in deeply and squeezes my heart. Warmest wishes my friend.. ~Susan

Faraz, if the road of life was like a flat and featureless motorway it would so boring. It is however up hill and down hill. Peaks and troughs, good times and hard times. It is all a learning curve. I love this work of yours and will read more later.

These words are very sweet especially the last verse.

Great first offering here. As noted by others, and knowing that English language is not your mother tongue, this shows true poetic talent. I'd love to see your poems after grammar and spelling mistakes are corrected.

The title is so expressively touching. Sometimes people leave and it seems that there's no option except shed a tear. Everything seems so hopeless and nonsense. But it's great that people are able to become even stronger than they were before. Nice work.

Hi Faraz, as everyone has said the content is touching. Download & use Grammarly it is free. Also, remember the first & last words of every line are important so begin & end with a strong word! Think of verses as paragraphs. [do repost once ycorrections]Light & Love

Welcome to Poetry Soup. I hope it works out for you. Since English doesn't seem to be your native tongue I give you kudos. It is wonderful to be in love and to lose someone is catastrophic as you have said. Nice writing.

Greetings Faraz welcome to poetrysoup and thankyou for sharing. For someone who's new on the site you've had a lot of views. Also thanks for checking out my poem (just out of curiosity, how did you find that poem?) I'm going with the crowds this time with regards to this poem, I liked it a lot, the general anatomy of the poem was great, but some of the bones were out of place. I hope you don't mind, but I'd never done any copy editing before and I had an empty head and a blank page, so I'm going to try to send you a soupmail (if my phone will allow me to)of how I personally would switch a few things around.

Hi John. In regards to your query about the Soup Mail. I think you have to be following the poet, however you can also search the name and send it that way. At least that's what I had to do the other day when I wanted to send a mail to someone. I hope this helps. Regards Kay

I'm not sure if you have to activate soupmail? I just tried to send it to you but I could only send mail to about 5people? I'm not sure how to send it to you? Any help please soupers?

Sometimes our emotion is deep as we felt the feeling in that moment time. But as we look at the situation do not forget that love is two to tango. If you give love, you need to receive back if not, do not waste your emotion to someone not willing to. In life waiting and patience is the most important tools of having a right someone in life. Believing in love story is exciting and interesting moment in life. It will come.

This is very nice write, aside from the grammar mistakes. Before you post you should check your spelling. But your words in the poem are very nice. Welcome to poetry soup. And thank you for reading my Her Tears :)

You have reached the reader to feel what you are feeling with this one. That alone is a success with a poem :)

Hello Faraz, this poem is brilliant and reminds me of a favourite poem of mine (she walks in beauty), your poem seems to grasp feelings over a period of time. However be careful with your punctuation and grammar! Also, your poem seems to lack a structure! Other than that, this is a brilliant poem, Well Done!

Hello Faraz :) I'm a newbie but will review your poem as requested. I read this poem & for me it's all about capturing feelings. You have done this, especially the pain & anguish. That's the hard part! Just think the poem would be improved with work on structure, grammar & spelling. I often have poems 'in limbo' for months 'waiting' for the structure & even the right words.. but it's GREAT as I can feel of the pain & good memories too! Well done, as it's never easy to express feelings of love :)

Hi Faraz, Like you I am very new to this site I read The Purpose of My Life, and it showed depth of meaning. Blonde hairs should be hair to rhyme with fair. Some lines too long. I find it helpful to count syllables in lines. you say you can't swallow, then can't eat which is tautology. without you I can't even swallow, I don't sleep, continue to grieve Without you I am left hollow. All writing is re-writing. Blessings, Vivien
