At the Moment

an "I'm sorry" poem

At the Moment

At the moment

I find it really hard to concentrate

even with all the ambition in the world in my mind

because all I can think about

is the warmth your body gives off

when you are close by my side

I just need your touch 

and hope that you long for mine

as I do you

because even among all the thorns

the petals of a rose are never torn

so why should I

Tear our love with circumstance

it was all by chance

that you drew my eyes to you

And my heart you took

cut up and on puppet strings

you sewed it up and gave it 

that sweet sweet medicine

It is still healing

from the everyday bruises 

and 

those sharp memories that like to linger

but you gave me the medicine that lingers also

and never leaves even when attacked

by the most deadly of counter poisons

So thank you very much

if I've never ever said before

for everything you've ever done for me

Even if it seems like I forget

I never do

Because that one thing never changes

and thats the first little bud I saw

in us

I love you

.......I have no words......my voice is in my awe!! ("as you do mine" can be taken out and it would not hurt the poem in any way imaginable, and it would help it, actually, for "I just need your touch" implies that longing). Well done!

This`s termed as life where unforgettable moments never leave the hand of empathy. Very nice poem, it reminds me some of my old days of misery. Me too`d expressed out all of my emotions in writing feeling relaxed and with the time, everything became calm with the waves of calmness. Beautiful write.

76 views? Seriously? I can't believe how slow I read this. Selfishly, I was imagining that you were writing this for ME. You are so beautiful. I didn't want to miss a word and I love it. Why am I the only one her? Do the comments get erased? Michelle, this is gorgeous, personal, and incredibly selfless to give such a beautiful heart to one who may receive it, for I have never heard such words befall a love ly tune to reach MY ears. Beautiful Michelle....... *Hugzz* xoxo -Mark
