Your ex

by cassie hughes   Jan 17, 2015


So she's back on the scene and I see in her face
that she means to take back all the love I've embraced,
with her lies and soft whispers that she loves you yet.
I can't help but wonder. Do you hold regrets
that you parted? I know when I asked,
you swore you were over, she lived in the past,
but her words keep on filling my mind and I'm lost,
because without your love I know I'm just a ghost.
So hold me and love me and understand please,
although insecure, that I want to believe,
in your vows and your promises you'll never go.
Help me show her, together, love she'll never know.

    This poem is lovely. When you love someone so much you are afraid that they will go. Even when they reasure you they wont. I believe its an insecurity that alot of people can relate to.

    "Help me show her, together, love she'll never know."
    This line made me smile. It shows just how much you love this person. This poem is so beautiful and its an amazing tribute.

    This is a lovely poem Cassie. The love held by two people cannot easily be broken by anyone and it is sad when an ex gf comes back into the picture because it does make things difficult. But the emotions you wrote here are well and you are saying that you want to make their ex jealous of the relationship you have together so they won't have any ideas about going back to the person they broke up with. I love the language you have here too. You state that you love this person deeply and you are asking this person to be there for you because without them you are the shell of the girl you are, and a ghost of your former self. 5/5
