Losing Time

by Jes   Jun 25, 2009


I turn my face away from you
I don't want you to see my tears
Your words stoked such deep hurt in me
You confirmed my worst fears

I long to reach out and touch you
How I wish to hold you tight in my arms
I want you to whisper to me again
I want to fall victim to your charms

I know you think we are only friends
But that's so far from the truth
I love you as deeply as ever
With all of my soul and inner youth

These are our last moments together
Monica will be coming here soon
I look at you pleadingly
My soul shrinks further into it's cocoon

I knew this day was coming
So why does this shock and hurt so much?
I was hoping that maybe you were joking
I guess I don't have such luck...

Time isn't on my side
Our last moments come and pass
I long to reach out and grab them
But they slip out of my grasp

As we say our final goodbyes
You promise to still call
I know this is a lie
Deeper into depression I will fall

I can't live without you in my life
Not hearing your voice or seeing your face
I will slowly die without your touch
Our memories will slowly be erased

As I walk down your steps,
My future is planned out
My life is now over
My hope has ran out...

    these lines were deffinitally my favorite, just because ive felt this exact same way once before.

    the whole poem was amazing and that last stanza really pulled all of it together really well.

    great work.
