Misty Reese Poem
Every time I hear your voice,
I feel my heart begin to sink.
I hear your words once again,
but I don't know what to think.
You say you don't need her,
I'm the one you need,
that your heart is a flower,
for which I am the seed.
I want you so very much,
why can't it be like before?
You softly kiss me and it
makes me want you even more.
I allow my lips tp kiss you back,
even though I know it's wrong.
For you belong to her now,
even though we were together for so long.
You look deep into my eyes,
and whisper,"It'll be alright."
So I surrender and let you hold me
for just one more night.

Misty Reese Poem
The confusion in my heart grows more each day.
I watch you stutter looking for the right words to say.
I let the gun fall from my hands to the floor.
There's no reason to fight,I can't take it anymore.
Suddenly,I find my world's turning black.
I've done what I've done,there's no looking back.
I hear you calling to me,"Fight,baby,fight!".
My body is numb and my chest feels tight.
I am weightless,I think I'm going to float.
I struggle to breathe,the blood gurgling in my throat.
I feel the pain of the hole in my head.
If they don't hurry,I'll soon be dead.
The sirens and flashing lights are just too late,
for I am in a limbo sort of state.
I look down on the blood-soaked place,
and see the look of horror upon your sweet face.
I hear you scream and call out my name,
you start to cry and I feel such shame.
Please don't cry,my love will never cease,
just try to believe that I am now finally at peace.

Misty Reese Poem
I clipped your wings,a mortal sin
because I feared that you would flee.
I was desparately afraid that if you left,
you would never again return to me.
I kept you surrounded day and night
by my cage of jealousy and fear.
Much like a jailbird,you were a prisoner
unable to breathe in the fresh air.
Then one day your feathers drooped
and you would no longer sing.
I saw your weakening sadness
and my heart began to sting.
Suddenly,I realized the sad truth,
a bird of your magnitude must soar.
The cage,the clipped wings were of no use,
you must be free to explore.
So you spread those elegant wings
and just like that you were free.
You never even bothered to look back,
just glided above the old oak tree.
Part of me still wants you here,
singing so beautifully ,
but I know in my heart,
yours is a soul that must be free.
Maybe as years pass,
then you'll decide to come back to me.
You'll sail gleefully into my arms,
and at last we'll both be free.
