Just Another Attempt!!!!!!
[And again] I'm trying to pen my heart
As my words fall upon the page...

Please, pay no attention to my madness
These are just simply words confounded
Belonging to an unbearable love for him
'Don't move, you're heart's surrounded'

'Do not say another word, do not speak'
I find a new strength through revolution
Please, don't instruct my psychotic mind
My love does not approve of its execution

I told you, pay no attention to my madness
[And again] I'm right. Yet again, I'm right
Try a little reverse psychology, my friend
It may just elucidate the lines that I write

[And again] I'm trying to pen my heart
As my words fall upon the page...

I can tell you; this really is a useless task
Fastening my hands like you always do
I have the right to remain silent, you say?
I'll remain silent the day my love's untrue

Did I not say, pay any attention to this?
Because really, it's only a simple rhyme
[And again] I lie to myself in perplexity
Apparently I've now committed a crime

'We'll give you one warning, one only'
Please, you know I'll fight 'til my death
If this life won't let me hold him close
Then go ahead and steal my final breath

[And again] I'm trying to pen my heart
As my words fall upon the page...

Lying To Forget
This lie's become a part of me
For months, I've played this game
Acting like it doesn't hurt
Each time I hear his name

Ignoring what's inside of me
Pretending I've moved on
As if the feelings I once had
For him are somehow gone

Spending each and every day
With happiness and laughs
Forgetting all our memories
Avoiding photographs

But last night when I saw him
For the first time since he left
My heart stopped for a moment...
I couldn't catch my breath

When suddenly it hit me
As the tears started to flow
That even after all this time...
I just can't let him go!!!!

[PrinceMyshkin]

How well you handle the rhyme in this, especially the off-rhyme in:


But last night when I saw him
For the first time since he left
My heart stopped for a moment...
I couldn't catch my breath

which would really be the far better place to end as the last verse that you have now ends on such a banal, corny note. The uncaught breath leaves us with the feeling of incompleteness, of something that has yet to be finished & might not be for some time.

[mukta581]

If I could have just one wish,
I would wish to wake up everyday
to the sound of your breath on my neck,
the warmth of your lips on my cheek,
the touch of your fingers on my skin,
and the feel of your heart beating with mine...
Knowing that I could never find that feeling
with anyone other than you.

[NikolaiI]

Another in a line of signs,
that speaks to my innermost soul;
another sign from god;
the greatest is in the small.
an angel sent to me here;
and a message sent to my mind,
the angel whispers creation,
and the message is a parallel.
i cannot speak the words of god,
i cannot create like he does;
but such a message i cannot ignore;
though as you see i cannot express it either.
but the message and the angel of creation,
are telling me my destiny,
another sign in a long line from god,
that you were meant for me.

i dont undertsand
this life we live n
why does everythng have to be so secret
so confusing
so hurting
yet so lovein
theirs obstacles
that we dont wan to face
but if we dont
well never make it
so give it all you got
and so will i
and well make it together

why did you stop writing about your love?

[a.is.walker]

Is it too painful that the love of your life doesn't love you in return or have you rightfully given up on love from him. IT SEEMS THAT HE IS HAPPILLY MARRIED BUT REGARDLESS YOUR WRITINGS ARE VERY MOVING.

I know you can not forget me as I will not.
You know one fact some time we avoid fact,
Some times we try to move away from shadow but we cant,
Some fact is like shadow, don’t try to move away from fact.
Fact is always like shadow take it as well as is!!!!
