Andrew Feb 2023
You are the girl
that I once knew
who stole my heart
just to tear it in two

from the downward path
we both once took
stood my darkest hour
that unforgettable look

you are the one
who won’t be forgotten
the young slender woman
who filled all of heaven

I miss your love
your loving kiss
but I won’t forget
that awful day
when you simply,
walked away
Andrew Jan 2023
I lay
staring
at the sky
having
old memories
drifting by
feeling your fingers
through my fingers
melting
snowflakes
as I cry
Andrew Jan 2023
She looks happy
on the outside
but feels ugly
on the inside
no man
could take
this away
not even if
they loved her
in every way
Andrew Jan 2023
From the first breath
I ever took

I watched my mother
give the
saddest look

It was that day
I found my fear
It went
through me
with every tear

As I grew
I came
to learn
I saw this world
for its wicked turn

Amongst a crowd
I tried to fit in
behaving shy
they screamed
and shout

Preferred the dark
hidden from light
I got taught
to live in doubt

From every hour
I had to fight
there was a heart
I held so dearly tight
My childhood and adult life
Andrew Jan 2023
I don’t live
I exist
between life and death
through the mist
amongst the dreams
clinging on to our past
Andrew Jan 2023
I’m done with this writing
I keep aiming for perfection
I used to be smiling
Now it’s become an obsession
Andrew Jan 2023
I’ve had enough
I want this to end
no more poems
about us being friends

I need to leave now
I got to move on
I do have a plan
its time to stay strong

I must remember
I’m not here to impress
I’m here for my sorrows
to put everything to rest

I’m scared to see you
what if it goes wrong
my amends takes a turn
I know you’ll be gone
One day, It may come true.
And I can possibly stop all this writing
