Trying To Be Strong

by Michelle18   Aug 20, 2007


Tears are streaming down my face,
I cant take anymore of this kind of pain.
I can hear my heart constantly race,
I'm starting to drive myself insane.
I never have any fun,
Because all I do is think about him.
Lord what has he done?
Him leaving has become a terrible sin.
All I do is lay in my bed,
With his voice running through my mind.
I think about everything he has said,
Through his words,happiness is what I find.
But then reality catches my eye,
And I realize he's not here.
God sometimes I want to die,
Knowing he's not near.
I'm trying to be strong,
For his sake and for mine.
So I listen to our song,
To help pass the time.
But I still am very sad,
Because he's gone away.
But I know the love that we had,
In our hearts will continue to stay.

    To me this poem wasn't as good as the other one I read, I liked the meaning portrayed behind it and I know you were trying to pour your heart out into this poem because of what you wrote at the bottom but the emotion just wasn't that strong to me. Overall I give this a 4/5. A good effort. ~mel
