Everytime I close my eyes,
Maybe that's why my eyes stay open
Most of the time.
I only hear your voice
At night, when I'm trying to sleep,
It's in those aching hours
That I know it's my heart that you have managed to keep.
I only feel your caresses on my skin
Everytime I begin to dream,
I can block you out most of the time,
And that's a big step for me.
I never cry anymore,
Except on days that end in y,
I never remember you,
Just everytime I close my eyes. [comments] => 3 [counter] => 237 [topic] => 22 [informant] => ginsdance [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => LostLove )

Everytime I Close My Eyes

I only see your face
Everytime I close my eyes,
Maybe that's why my eyes stay open
Most of the time.
I only hear your voice
At night, when I'm trying to sleep,
It's in those aching hours
That I know it's my heart that you have managed to keep.
I only feel your caresses on my skin
Everytime I begin to dream,
I can block you out most of the time,
And that's a big step for me.
I never cry anymore,
Except on days that end in y,
I never remember you,
Just everytime I close my eyes.

i love the first half it's brilliant. but the last 6 lines make me want to wretch. i've written worse, however, so don't sweat it. not like what i think should make any difference anyways. but they provide this here forum for commenting and i felt the need to comment, so now that I've fulfilled my own inner need, we can all go on about our days.

Personally I like this poem, and I don't know what you think you are talking about herb. That comment was mean and rude. You didn't need to post that.
