I don’t play guitar

I don’t write poetry

People say I walk weird

My singing sounds awful

I am a bad dancer even in my dreams



I knock myself out,

Walking into doorways and walls,

I am such a klutz.

I stutter on the phone,

I am such a nervous wreck



Yes, I am jealous

Because you are amazingly gorgeous

And  I am just me….

Gazing through the window pane

Seeing people rejoice the evening rain

I wish you were by my side again

Walking together down an endless lane



Remain etched in my heart

Are your memories forever

It feels that we are still together

Even when we stay so far apart



I wait endlessly to get drowned

In your mesmerizing hazel eyes

And to be spellbound

By your Intoxicating smile



There is so much that I yearn

To feel your presence

To clutch your hands

To have you in my arms



Sweetheart…

What do I do?

Unfathomable is the joy

Of longing for you

Throbbing emptiness

Heart wrenching anguish

Excruciating pain

To feel numb is all that I wish



Utterly vanquished

Dismayed

Distraught

Betrayed and hurt



Days are dark and full of despair

Nights, long and sorrowful



I see you here

I see you there

I feel your presence lingering everywhere

The torment goes on and on



Time is a great healer they say

And I hopelessly, hopelessly wait
