Array ( [sid] => 116394 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Candle wax tears [time] => 2006-03-14 08:13:01 [hometext] => as the poem describes i was sat alone in a candle lit room, thinking about my ex boyfriend and how much i love him and miss him. [bodytext] =>

Alone, here I sit,
In a room, candle lit.
Dwelling on the thoughts that once were,
Wondering how this last year became such a blur.

I opened up to you,
You held me when I was blue.
Made me feel so safe when I was vulnerable,
Always there to give me a cuddle.

Alone I sit,
Finding it hard to admit.
I want you back even though you hurt me,
Yet I have doubts about that coming to be.

I have fears of seeing you,
I wonder if you do to,
Did you find what is missing?
I am ready to listen.

Alone, here I sit,
In a room, candle lit.
Dwelling on the thoughts that once were,
Wondering how this last year became such a blur.

Can we honestly say we'll be just friends,
Would we really make amends?
I still love you,
Do you to?

Alone, here I sit,
In a room, candle lit,
Dwelling on the thoughts that once were,
Wondering how this last year became such a blur...

Even though I know where this poem comes from I don't think I will comment on that. I want to comment on just the poem itself as just a poem and nothing else. First you did it again with the title. I love your titles. I really do, I think some of them are inspired. This one like others of yours that I like really evoke a vivid image in my mind. I couldn't wait to see how well it worked for what I was about to read. I very much liked the repeating refrain. "Alone, here I sit, In a room, candle lit,". Evocitive, is what comes to mind when i read that repeating refrain, pictures in my mind form from the words. The words feel good on your tongue when you say them, the syntax just rolls so easily. I thought the last two lines of that refrain were well done too. Of paticular interest was the part about the year being a blur. Couldn't help but think, "Time flies when your having fun". My favorite part of the poem was the next to last stanza, the sixth one. It was poignant, a heart felt question and I as the reader Ithought it the focal point of the poem. Here am I, this is what I have felt, but finally, here is what I really want to know. Bob
