Blue

Hey everyone, I'm 16 and this is my first 
poem that i've ever posted. I would like to 
know your thoughts, and thank you for 
your time! 

The night is dark and silent
The thoughts come rolling in
And hour after hour
I wonder where you've been

If you ever think of me
In this deep dark night?
As when the moon above us shines
It's possible that you might

At one point we were one
So long ago it seems a crime
But our bond is of a love
One that will outlast time

If I ever saw you again
I'd ask how you've been keeping?
All I'd need is just one look
Our time all too fleeting

To say that I don't miss you
Would be an outright lie
Without you I am lost
I'm barely getting by

I wonder where you are
When we're so far apart
You're already gone
But never from my heart

I can't ever let it out 
Or the sadness will grow
So until we meet again
It's best you don't know

So it's at night in the darkness
Where I think of you
And the night isn't black
But a dark shade of blue

The Cage That Holds Us Apart

I wrote this for a friend, please tell me what you think of it.

Heart pounds at the sound of your name,
It beats for only you,
My stolen glances,
At your playful smile,
The things I wish you knew.

I love you so much my chest hurts,
Heart straining to be free,
Held in place by rules,
A warning to all,
A warning to you and me.

It's not ok to be different,
Not ok to be me,
If you're not like them,
They don't give a damn,
No not about you and me.

They don't think that we are people,
With feelings just the same,
Their words hurt like hell,
And all that they do,
Is create our sense of shame.

I'm not ashamed to be different,
I'm not ashamed to love you,
You won't love back,
Cos the lies they've told,
Have now taken you too.
