[hometext] => I wrote this for my ex. Please commet.
[bodytext] => [inhale] tears begin to flood my face ,like a cup left under a running faucet well after the water has reached the rim, My heart leaping to my throat , getting cough, squeezing, twisting, tearing, my throat contracting around the emotions that threaten to leap up and out of my lips, my stomach rumbling, wrestling, knotting, my hands quiver as i reach up to bolt the tiny tear drops, leaving footprints down my cheeks, the pain that awaits me suddenly seems like a pilgrimage, one foot, next foot, step, step, I see you, [I see her] you smile, i smile, [she leaves] you ask how i am, [i lie] I reply that I'm fine, [even though my heart has just crept into my mouth and is jumping up & down like an olympic diver to hit the water] I want to say that i miss you, to let you know that every moment i'm awake, i think of you, i want you to know that i miss your arms , your smile, your lips, I want you to know that [i'm incomplete] my body hurts, and that my soul bleeds, i ask how you are, [hoping against all hope that you'll tell me what i want to hear] you reply [your answer not including that you miss me,that you miss my arms, my touch] my eyes attempt to strip you down to your soul, [searching for what i once knew so well] they get lost, [but find their way back to reality when they gaze over that [ever fading] hickey just above the collar of the shirt that she bought you] my heart leaps off the end of my tounge, wanting you to see the way you hurt me, wanting to hurt you the same way, my heart falls to the ground, [she calls you] you hastily say goodbye, [as you trot over to her] stomping, squishing, mutilating, my vulnerable, fallen heart, [not even pausing long enough to scrape it off the bottom of your shoe, like a discarded piece of gum] she wraps her arms around your neck, brings her lips to yours........ [your ears turn red] people pass as if i don't even exist [i want to cry, sceam and shout] i want someone to find my heart, bring it back, and piece it together I turn away hoping that one day it won't hurt [as much] and hoping that i'll be able to call you and have you come over to me and be able to buy shirts that match your eyes, [and leave the tell-tale hickey above your collar] and be able to make your ears turn red from the friction of our lips i walk away, knowing that my heart won't follow [exhale] [comments] => 1 [counter] => 201 [topic] => 32 [informant] => BRIDGI [notes] => Edited for spelling as requested. - Moderator_16 [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 5 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 0 [associated] => [topicname] => SadPoetry )

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
