Neglected

by *Charisma*   Mar 5, 2007


You give me everything I need
But not what I desire
Friends is fine for friends
Can we take it a step higher?

You can make me laugh, always.
I smile at the end of every phone call.
When we talk, it's beautiful.
So why do we keep hitting walls?

Is it so difficult to ask me that question.
You know my answer would be yes.
You can't possibly believe,
The way we are is really best?

I'm feeling neglected and alone.
Am I the only one who thinks this is right?
She must be absolutely what you want.
Funny, I thought this was an easy fight.

I lose and she wins the perfect prize.
There's not even a second or third place.
It's all or nothing, you or lonely.
I can't look her in the face.

I'm sorry I'm doing this to you.
I want to save this friendship we have.
It's just killing me that I lost
And there isn't any way to go back.

I'll get over it, but not right now.
Please don't watch me cry these tears.
No, I can't explain myself to you.
Just go on assuming, I'm battling fears.

Neglected...no...just alone.
You want to be my everything
Except that one special person
That would be my everything.

    So many times we cover up our hurt with the lie of something else. It seems that you pulled out every bit of pain that were feeling and placed it on this page.

    Very well done, dear friend.

    Firstly, I would like to say that I too found

    'One bad in the world, makes the headlines fast
    But a mountain of good, surely isn't to last'

    to be my favorite stanza, and I must say I was suprised I wrote it, as I always am with good piece I write.

    Anyway, on to this poem. I thought it was a pretty good poem, but I did feel it was a better poem at the beginning than at the end. The emotion I think is what really made this poem. I think my favorite stanza was the third one. I can't quite put my finger on why, but maybe its because it was mysterious or maybe it was the flow, I'm not sure. Anyway love, I'm off.

    P.S. Thanks for your comment on my poems, and for your suggestion on 'A Destructive World'.
