From the Heart...
You were the closest thing to perfection that I had ever seen.
So much Beauty so full of passion, it all felt like such Dream.
I swear the first time you said you loved me I had never felt so alive.
I had never felt as happy as I did that night.
I don’t know what happened!
If it was me or you.
Maybe it was the truth that separated us as winds of change blew.
Where there were nights of wild passion...
I now lay alone cold as Ice.
With the weight of the knowledge that you were my Sacrifice.
If I sleep which sometimes happens I still reach for your hand.
When I open my eyes I find it hard to understand.
How I went against my heart and had to let you go.
For my head was shouting the bitter truth and it all began to show.
That as much as I wanted to be the man you needed in your life.
I could never be the father to your child or take you as my wife.
I could never promise you the words that you wanted to hear.
So I remained silent and softly disappeared.
I could not change who I had become and I could never put you first.
However I had felt broken before this time it was worse.
I could see what you needed and I knew it wasn’t me.
I loved you so much, I just wanted you to be happy.
So I listened to my head and built the walls back round my heart.
Everyday I fight the urge to get in touch in vain.
I pray that happiness finds you and your happily ever after does start.
You find all you’ve ever wanted and you are smiling again.

I have been writing Poetry since I was a teenager. Now in my late thirties I enjoy it more than ever. I find it a wonderful release and it helps me to free my mind and understand myself and my emotions.
