Despair

Despair

A Poem by M.D Leon
"

The pain of loving someone who is taken!

"

Despair

I welcome the moon, accompanied by the brightest stars

And once again my mind is lost in you

Oh but can’t you see, that you belong to me

But your heart is still stuck on someone else

Time goes on and on, so endless like the sea

Lost in darkness and the blue

Baby can’t you see that we were meant to be

But for now all I can do is wait

 

Though the sadness and the pain, I’ll be waiting for you

I don’t know what to do about this feeling; all I can do is wait

Through the madness and the rain, I’ll do nothing but wait

And hope that one day you’ll come through

 

Girl why don’t you come out with me tonight

I want to show you all that’s in your dreams

Tell me who is he, that I cannot see

How is that he found you before I did?

 

Upon the solitude and across its blue

I am holding my heart out for you to take

Oh baby can’t you see that you are the one for me

Give me a chance to prove I’m better than him

 

Through the darkness and the loneliness, I’ll be waiting for you

Though I love you more than anything; all I can do is wait

Through the aching and the fog, I’ll do nothing but wait

And pray that one day ill hold your hand

 

Oh my love give me your all tonight

For I wish it more than my own life

Feel my love and lose yourself below the stars

I’ll show you all that he can’t make you feel

I call to you, just give me a chance

 

Through the night and the cold I’ll be waiting for you

Though my despair is leading me to madness all I can do is wait

Through the morning and its sunset I’ll do nothing but wait

But this feeling is starting to drive me insane

 

Baby for your beauty I can no longer wait

I’m about to give it all to tell you I can do it all but wait

It’s oppressing and destroying me, so I’ll no longer wait

Even if it means losing you

 

Baby tell me that you want me too and let’s fly away

Leave all that is a burden and let’s fly away

Tell me that you feel me as I do and take me away

Take me to your dreams, your fantasies

I want you more than anything but you are still with him

So I’ll just wait, even until my death

I have to agree with Cynical. This was great, and it makes my attempts of poetry look like thrash. XD But I really do like this. You did an excellent job expressing the emotions with your writings. Great job. :)

Really like this poem! Reading it just made me realize how awful I am at poetry XD definitely not my forte. Thought it was very powerful and the words transitioned smoothly. I can also definitely see this being sung. Hey, might be a lot to ask but if you have the time and you'd be willing I have a request. I'll message you.

I always smile when we think of love being something that should take us away, I nearly always find it is something that makes where I am more tolerable. If we needed to leave a place of suffering it need not be love that removes us, yes inspire maybe. I had the feeling of Meat Loaf belting this tune out to thundering guitars, but the lyrics deserve better, maybe a Don Mclean or Lenoard Cohen. Nice Jjob

yes, this definitely has a lyrical feel to it and a melancholy that would lend itself nicely to music. Wonderful Write

I like this.. It held lots of images. I have to agree with one on here. I too was closing my eyes and seeing a song here. I like how it led up to the end and became a whole new meaning.. Like I can do no more kind of mode..

Well done
