Array ( [sid] => 9868 [catid] => 1 [aid] => Mick [title] => If Only She Knew [time] => 2003-01-06 13:00:00 [hometext] => This write was inspired by a stage in my life that i will never forget,it's about two people that share the same dream yet both too busy in their own worlds believing it could never be so.

Sorry for those who have to break out their dictionary... [bodytext] => Her happiness
to her,an illusion
a mirage
out of her grasp
she takes a deep breath
caressing the salty wind
with her gnarled hands
the breeze
carries her curls
of golden beauty
over her sad expression
cascading over
like a curtain
concealing
that secret place
she has so desperately
tried to hide
all her life
timid and shaking
she bites her bottom lip
torn and bleeding
worn from worry
looking up
staring out at sea
calm waters
glittering iridescent
the water,reflecting moonlight
as reflected memories playback
in her mind
(she sighs)
her love,to her
a finite existance
her love,to him
unreachable
so distant
her heart unexplored
uncharted territory
ethereal interpretation
although tonight
a place of pain
trapped within her lifeless body
losing hope
tears fall like rain
sent into a state
of confusion
attempting to find inner peace
although an endless search
for confusion knows no boundries
a victim of circular thinking
a stage
she tries to comprehend
to no avail
no answers
only further questions
she lives her life
the way others dream
although unheard
and going by unseen
sacred soul
the truth yet unknown
she wants to hear
what she so badly craves
a sign of significance
like a statue
a masterpiece
she sits alone
waiting to be told

I Love You

while he stands
in the distance
silently watching
with whispers of

" I Love Her " [comments] => 10 [counter] => 257 [topic] => 22 [informant] => EmptyWords [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 28 [ratings] => 6 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => LostLove )

If Only She Knew

Nice poem. It is always hard not to know what the other person is thinking before mutual love is out in the open. I must say though, I would also be sorry for those that had to break out their dictionary to read this.

Another powerfully written poem. Empty words may be the pen name but nothing could be further from the truth. You writewhat many of us feel but only comes out as babble.
Thank you for sharing your eloquence with us all.

This poem shows how some of us feel when it comes to relationships. We believe that it will never work, but if we tried it could be the best thing we ever did. Nice write.
