Turn around and look at me.

by Teria   Dec 29, 2008


Don't go my darling,
please stay with me.
I've lost too much
to see you go.
Self pity shan't win,
but maybe this once -
you'll glance behind you
and see what I see.

They say never look back,
don't look back.
But, I beg of you -
please look back.
you'll see things that tear you,
things that hurt you-
but maybe, just maybe
you won't see through.

I'm waiting again,
even though it's my fault.
I'm churning inside
afraid that she might win.
She's there, I'm here
no comparison needed.
For, she's won your heart
and she's all you see -

But, I'm begging you,
oh I'm begging you please
turn around and look at me.

    First of all I'd like to say this is a great poem that I think many people including myself can relate to.
    When reading your poem I could really feel your pain and the longing you felt for the other person.
    I rather liked your word choice and thought you had a strong start and ending, well done =]
    I liked the third stanza most, mostly for personal reason thought but over all I believe every stanza was well put together.
    Good job hun.Keep it up. 5/5!

    Well this poem was beautifully penned down, you have taken the readers the journey of how is it to be the person who was being left by a guy for another girl...

    But, I'm begging you,
    oh I'm begging you please
    turn around and look at me.

    -I like the way you end the poem...which you try to see the slim hope that he would go back to you

    Excellent Job
    5/5 from me
