What is it you want from me
My dearest love?
I cannot fulfill your every dream
When even reality isn't enough.
I've tried before,
And I failed every time.
I cannot go on like this anymore
When I cannot find
You through the tainted truth.
You're so far away
When I need you with me.
You fade until I cannot take
The burning need
To have you within my reach.
You used to be my everything,
And now I don't know you.
I don't know what I used to see
When I never saw the truth,
But now I see that even waking
Doesn't end a dream.
It prolongs nightmares of sleeping
Without you by me.

Sleep With Me
What is it you want from me
My dearest love?
I cannot fulfill your every dream
When even reality isn't enough.
I've tried before,
And I failed every time.
I cannot go on like this anymore
When I cannot find
You through the tainted truth.
You're so far away
When I need you with me.
You fade until I cannot take
The burning need
To have you within my reach.
You used to be my everything,
And now I don't know you.
I don't know what I used to see
When I never saw the truth,
But now I see that even waking
Doesn't end a dream.
It prolongs nightmares of sleeping
Without you by me.

Wow!!! your naughty LOL J/K.
All joking aside i really loved this poem. I've know how it is to need someone so far away that you can just cry about it.
Well written as always Jen

Seems to be about a lost love, yet still in your dreams. Looking for the truth. Sometimes our dream life is more real, or fulfilling then reality. The last stanza says it all, as it is painful
Splendid write

Hmmm, I wouldn't say this is sad, more like just plain old missing someone, an intense longing.
A diffrent emotive piece from you and yet done with the same intensity that I have come to expect from you.
What a wonderful surprise and thank you for not disappointinhg me!!!!! |

This was beautiful!! I love this piece, you are such an amazing writer! This was dark with sparks of hope and love. I loved the structure especially the second and third stanzas where the last lines were seperate from the stanza. They have such impact, I love it.
Please keep writing!
