...


As each day passed
I wished there was something I could do...

As the time ticked away,
I couldn't face the fact that you had to go.

When I lay in your arms,
And when your scent filled me up...
When you looked me in the eye,
And when our lips touched,

...I wished the world could come to a standstill,
I wished you didn't have to go.

But,
The days passed,
You had to go.
You bid me goodbye

And now you are, miles and miles away from where I lie!

Every moment I spent with you,
Are very alive in my heart.

I can still feel your gentle touch
I can still feel your breath lift me up,
When I close my eyes and hope for the time to pass...
When I wait for you to come and tell me
That you love me and will always do!

xoxo

    Bambi this is a great poem. I saw your comment on another blog and came here. I am a first time visitor with a favor to ask. I feature poems on my site once a month and I would like to showcase this one. The segment is called Poetic License. November’s posted on the 16th, if you would like to visit and see for yourself.

    If you allow me, your poem will get full credit to you and a link back to your site. I would like to use this poem for March. In addition, every quarter I will post the previous four months worth of poems in one large post.
    My site doesn't get lots of visitors but Poetic License is one of the most popular features on my blog.

    Please email me to let me know the answer. Thanks again and whatever your decision, this is a great poem.

    Tom

    I apologize Juhi, I think I came from Bambi's site and because I am copying and pasting, I forgot to change the name. Actually I don't know what happened but I am sorry. Charge it to my head and not my heart.

Tripping Cause I'm Clumsy :)

picture from:  here They say that we suddenly grow up at a point, without realizing.  We suddenly stop doing what we always have been doing and we take a break to think. And then we change the gears and let go of all the stupidity.  We may not like it in the beginning, but this break is required. We need to sort ourselves out, and I think that this is what I’ve been trying to do from the past few weeks. I’ve heard that college changes people. Tomboyish girls start to wear make up, and the nerds start to bunk classes, while the desperate ones are all over each other. No hard feelings, but this is what happens. I’ve been thinking about which category I lie in. And honestly, I’m clueless. While people around me are too busy attending some party or the other, or while uploading pictures on  social networking sites, I’ve been so lost because none of these things seem appealing to me any longer. I don’t find the need of going to the washroom eve...

"Trust me. There's no way that I can sing in front of you." "Well, I don't care. You just have to!" I thrust the guitar into his hands and sit down in front of him. "You won't ever give up now, will you?" He sighs as he strikes a chord. "We got this afternoon You've got this room for two.." His eyes are shut, his voice mesmerizing. Soft..calm..just beautiful. His fingers gently move, the rhythm comes to him so naturally. I just sit and listen. And that's all I want to do. "You were wonderful." I say, once he stops. He laughs. "Your body is my wonderland." He kisses my shoulders gently. "You should really try for the competition, you know. You'll get through." "You don't get it Lucy. I can't sing in front of people." He snaps. "Just close your eyes and think that you're singing to me. Do it for me. Please.." I look into his eyes and hold on to his gaze. "Th...

Unfaithful

“I don’t wanna hurt him anymore, I don’t wanna take away his life... I don’t wanna be a murderer.” I lie on the crumpled bed sheet, alone. Naked. I close my eyes, tighten my fist, and try to stop the guilt from growing, from eating me up. It wasn’t the first time. I should have been accustomed to all of this by now, but no I’m not. I don’t think I ever will…yet I continue to do so, and yet I lie in his arms, and crave for him when he’s not around. The pictures appear in my mind. Flash backs. They always do after he leaves. And I always try to shut them from my mind. But it’s next to impossible. No, I don’t love him. I already have a lover, and he? He already has a family. It’s just the craving, the desperation, and the intense longing of being loved. He caresses me, he’s firm, strong, and I easily melt inside him. When he’s besides me, he is all I see. I don’t think about anything else. The world just seems beautiful when we lie next to each other, exhausted. And then, he leaves...
