Looking Back

by Sean Dohr   Jun 12, 2006


Empty space inside of me,
a front that reads no vacancies,
a lie that's read transparently,
as if you couldn't see through me.

I know it's time to let you be,
but it all came on too suddenly,
I'm not prepared to set you free,
don't leave me on my knees.

You were my own personal tease,
brought arousal with much ease,
but with your female tendencies,
you aimed only to displease.

Looking back at what I wrote, I see,
that is wasn't you, but it was me,
I went about things so awkwardly,
and now I miss you terribly.

Please, someday, come back to me...

    Nice! I usually don't like poems with this particular rhyme scheme cause the rhyhming seems forced. However, that's not the case in this one.
    Also, the honesty and emotion you poured into this is astounding. Well done!
    Take care and keep it up~Holly
