Poems

I'm not really too good at poetic writing, only written a few before. I'm just going to note some excerpts, rather than the full versions, here from a few I have written previously, as they still say how I felt and feel. I'm not looking for commentary on how good or bad they are. But they show some feelings and I think I need to put them out somewhere. Maybe I will post the full versions sometime, but these sections just say what I need to say at this time.

Secrets
Secrets I'll tell you,
From the depths of my soul.
To you I'll tell,
All the secrets I know.
The blackest, the brightest,
The darkest, the lightest.
Just tell me you love me,
And to you I'll tell all.

I'll love and protect you,
From all that I can.
Just reach out to me,
I'll take hold of your hand.
The strongest, the weakest,
The bravest, the meekest.
Just tell me you love me,
And I'll understand.

My heart beats for you
My darling I love you,
What more is there to say?
For my heart will always beat for you,
Until my final day.

Love
Never have I felt,
A feeling so great,
As that which is,
The opposite of hate.

A feeling so strong,
A feeling so true,
The feeling I feel,
When I am with you.

When I look in your eyes,
When I touch your cheek,
When I hold you close,
Whenever we meet.

A feeling so strong,
A feeling so true,
When you are with me
I can never be blue.

Winter Has Come
When I first met you,
Spring dawned in my heart.
Laughter would come unbidden,
And pain when we were apart.

Then came summer with us together,
And my whole world seemed so complete.
With such pure love I held you,
And such joy when we would meet.

Then autumn came amongst us,
And a sadness within my heart.
I did not want to lose you,
But I could feel it in my heart.

And now winter has come between us,
I think nothing will ever be the same.
For we are not together,
And I wish for our spring again.

Sad Dreams
I do not wish to sleep tonight,
For I know I will dream once more.
And the tears will come each morning
Since the day you walked out my door.

'My heart beats for you' was a poem I wrote around two years ago especially for my girlfriend. I've been trying to find the paper I wrote it on at home and haven't found the completed poem yet. I can only remember the final verse really, but I will keep looking as I remember her crying as she read it :)

The last one is taken from a poem I wrote a little while after my previous post on the blog, the second from last is also very recent. I still cry each day and it isn't easier, I cry less perhaps but the hurt is still so great.
