Array ( [sid] => 6290 [catid] => 1 [aid] => Mick [title] => Our Love Now - Variations [time] => 2002-11-06 09:00:00 [hometext] => This poem is based on 'Our Love Now' by Martyn Lowery. There is a twist in the narration of the verses... but its not hard to figure. [bodytext] => You stare at me
With eyes so full of light
Yet empty of emotion
No tear bespangles your cheek
Nor sweat your brow

I stare at you
And yet I feel no emotion, no love
No adrenaline in my blood
I do not cry - I cannot
You have sucked the life from within me

It makes it worse that you remain lifeless
With no sign of regret or remorse
It makes our love seem futile
Even though it is no more
Dead, like the last leaf of autumn

It makes it harder to regret
As it sit here remorseless
That we ever loved at all
That we ever had something
Before it became ugly and dead

I bathe my eyes in inclement brine
Leaving it to run over my fire cheeks
Washing away all my memories of you
Rinsing your touch from my skin
And leaving me broken and breathless

I sit and watch you cry
And it hurts so much to witness
I want to hold you and comfort you
But I can't, I daren't
My pride holds me back

I hate the way you act towards me
I hate the fact I don't have you
To hold, to love, to be
For I am lost without you
I am nothing

I hate the way you act towards me
I hate the fact I never had you
I need you, I want you
And I know, I know I could love you
If only I could have you... [comments] => 2 [counter] => 2741 [topic] => 2 [informant] => Sparkling_Fury [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 5 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => LovePoetry )
