Like the moth to the flame
Your affection drew me near
Only to be scorched by you
Time and time again
The wounds getting deeper
Why can't I, simply walk away?!
It hurts too much to stay
Yet, when I walk away
My body becomes so numb
You are like the air that I breathe
So difficult to breathe without you
So painful, as I gasp for enough air
Slowly, life begins to drain from me
Nothing matters to me now
No joy, no laughter, no light within
Just a hollow shell remains
Of what used to be........as one

Very passionate poem! Thank you for sharing! I think poets and poetesses are very romantic and sentimental people! That is why they can come up with powerful and emotive poems!

Raton,
You always want to solve everything with food. If things in life were only that simple.
Best!
Natalie nice poem! Nothing a bucket of whipped cream cant solve!
by Esfand Aashena on Tue Mar 13, 2012 05:10 AM PDTI think it really is a nice poem. Perhaps a parody of it can be made where a "bucket of whipped cream" can be worked into the poem at some point!
Everything is sacred
Poema agradable.
