PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

Alone in silence
Drowning in fear
Wishing you were with me
And held me so very near.

I remember your touch
When we said our good-byes
I remember your soft hand on my cheek
As you wiped the tears from my eyes.

Your warm embrace
Made me tremble inside
The day you left me
I swallowed every inch of my pride.

I felt a pain
Deep down within
And I knew at that very moment
This was the end.

It stung so bad
And cut like a knife
I have never been able to love another
Since the day you walked out of my life . . .
