Three Words

by heartbrokengrl   Jan 1, 2009


I'm still waiting for something
Something that would be nice to hear
Three simple words you could whisper in my ear
Words that would mean the world
Coming from your fragile lips
Not hearing them is the reason my heart rips

I want to hear them just one more time
But I never will again
Because you said them so long ago

You made a promise to me
That you never kept
You are gone now
That is something I must accept

But three simple words is all I want
Say them and I'll be gone
Show me that you did care
Say "I Love You"
It'll be the last thing you spare

    Nicely done, although there were a few things that got on my nerves.

    1. "gorgeous lips" in the first stanza is a very physical aspect, while the general atmosphere of the poem is more abstract, as in, everything is going on in your mind, rather than in the physical world. Thus, instead of trying to describe the lips physically, it ought to be more conceptual -- such as gentle, silent, parted, etc.

    2. "That is something I must accept" I didn't like this, because it wasn't the most poetic phrase in the world, but if you feel that it's right, don't change it. I understand what it's like to go through an emotional change through the writing of a poem; please don't change what you've once felt.

    3. "And I'll be out of your hair" Please don't end a poem with this line. It sound very immature, and also as if you're brushing the subject aside after writing a whole poem on it.

    Otherwise, nice piece! Keep writing!

    Emotional, Honest and Beutiful

    To change the poem would be to take away from it in my opinion
