What I miss most
Chris Mar 2015
I miss your touch
I miss your cheer
I miss your laugh
I miss you near
I miss your heart
I miss our song
I miss you today
And all night long

Your beautiful eyes
Your lips made of whispers
Your soft breathless sighs
Your kiss oh so tender
Your hands on my face
Your smile ever showing
Your wondrous embrace
Your magical glowing

The feel of your fingers
The scent of your skin
The flow of your hair
The sweep of your chin
The love that you breathe
The beauty you bring
The way you believe
I miss everything

But most of all
In all that I see
What I miss most
I miss you and me

Goodbye moon, hello sun
Chris May 2015
¤

Goodbye moon, hello sun
a brand new day has just begun
I am here, you are there,
still this morning we can share

Take a look, you will see
a perfect day where we can be
Hand in hand, just we two
so in love this whole day through
Good morning

Now I still walk
Chris Jun 2015
~

I walked many pathways
for years, half a lifetime
Tired and lonely,
lost, out on my own

Searching for love,
running circular patterns
stop signs and detours,
all ending alone

Then I decided,
I needed directions
Not with a map,
no that just wouldn't do

I looked deep inside
where the answer was waiting
I followed my heart
and it led me to you

Now I still walk
but you're always beside me
holding my hand
as you show me the way

Feeling your love,
oh so long I have waited
Here in your arms
*now forever to stay
Good night beautiful

I used to
Chris Mar 2015
I used to be able to smile
I used to be able to laugh
I used to be happy most all of the time
Now what do you think about that

I used to be able to write
A poem for you everyday
Now if I did you'd crumble them up
Throw all the poems away

I used to be able dream
I used to be able to sleep
I used to look forward to every night
But now all I can do is weep

I used to be able to love
I used to think our love was true
Now I can't feel anything anymore
Since you said that we were through

I used to be able to live
But now cause of something I said
There is no reason to live anymore
Now I just wish I were dead

Where they began
Chris Oct 2014
Springing forth
in the upheaval of truth
Leaving the lies
where they began
when you said
"I love you"
and I
believed you
322 · Mar 2015
You and me
Chris Mar 2015
Only
You and me
We were special
Made for each other
There was something about us
Neither had felt love like this before
I said something that hurt you badly
Allowing your heart to change
Then you hated me
Now there is no
You and me
Only


You


and


me

Dying Dreams
Chris Mar 2015
They say if you die in a dream
you are dead, but what happens
when your dreams die
and you wish you were?

It’s all the same
Chris May 2015
Turning handles
Spinning gears
Rotating cogs
Rusted in place
Breathing in
Breathing out
Final breath
It’s all the same
When you stop the motion
Allowing moments to pass
For the very last time
Just something a little different

Thank you for reading

I write every poem using the love you send me

Come
Chris Mar 2015
Come
feel the flourish
of a thorned ****
thriving in a
Saturday garden
and I will watch
your blood
seep into the earth
bearing you a
beautiful red rose
which we shall watch
die together

From the heart
Chris Mar 2015
If poetic ink indeed flows from the heart
taking to its walk on scattered stones
Where there is no blurring of pathways,
directions are defined,
thoughts collect in either
ponds or puddles, then

Some you will find lead to a sunrise
where joy thrives in fragrant wishes,
drinking all that is beautiful
in cupped hands glistening,
overflowing with happiness,
if streaming from a heart in love

While some will crawl to an ending
beneath rain dispersing clouds,
weeping in sorrowed words,
laying waste in the darkness,
when escaping from the cracks
of a heart broken

I have been asked
why is my poetry so depressing,
I hope this answers your question

Where
Chris May 2015
-

Where was the sun
When your tears filled the sky
When you pulled back your heart
When you whispered goodbye

Where was the rain
When your smile was brand new
When each day was a dream
When you cherished the view

Where was the moon
When the darkness had died
When there were no more stars
When the emptiness cried

Where is the sky
When my eyes can not see
When our hearts break apart
When you are not with me

Lost Control
Chris Mar 2015
I write poetry
because my brain
controls my hands
and I have never
been able to
control it

Who's there?
Chris Mar 2015
The door was locked
So I  knocked

You opened it up
Then you could see
You thought it was him
But saw it was me

You were shocked
The door was locked
