Old Sad Story

I loved her,
I really did,
But it's an old sad story,
That I live.
How can I ask for more,
From this beautiful woman I adore?
I trapped her and kept her down,
How can I ask for her to be around?
Out of these eyes,
I could not see.
How can I live,
With this part of me?
She means so much,
Yet so little does it show,
But there's nothing left,
Except the words over the phone.
I am no more man,
Than I am a child,
As I watch these dreams,
Crumble to a pile.
Now she's gone.
She has left.
Now my heart,
Starves to death.
Misery comes strong,
With this lesson I've learned.
So many times in my life,
I have taken the wrong turn.
One day I hope,
This butterfly with come home,
As for now,
I am left all alone.
I miss her more,
Then what these rythmes could say,
For her heart,
I could not pay.
I loved her,
I really did,
But it's an old sad story,
That I live.

poem Written by jordhan on 2008-07-25 04:43:45 IP: i find this poem to be so relating and so beautiful, like something i've never heard before.  so much meaning behind it that i feel, it's almost unbareable.    i'd like to ask you, if i could use this poem as a set of lyrics for a song. of course, all credit would be given to you for the lyrics.  if this might be even considerable, please email me.

Same here Written by Anthony C on 2008-04-24 00:48:45 IP: Guy here to, I think that I am going through the same thing that you did. I took advantage of all the things that my wife has done for me over the years, and now we have drifted apart. So I am stuck here alone, I never really feel like eating, I cant sleep without thinking of her, because I know she is not here with me. I know that the problems that we are having now is because I never let her know what she meant to me and I never let her know how much I appreciated everything she did. But now I think it is to late......I am stuck with knowing that all the hurt I am feeling is all my fault.
