WHERE HAVE YOU GONE?

 

WHERE HAVE YOU GONE?

 

I can’t begin to express

As the words don’t come so easy

I somehow feel a little at a loss

On how you truly feel

 

You seem so distant

No wanting to be close

As we once upon a time were

What have I done wrong?

 

Please tell me darling

What it is I need to do

To bring you back home

Into my loving arms

 

For you see my darling

I love you more than words can say

Yet no matter what I do

I feel like you’re drifting further away

 

Perhaps it’s just me

But darling I’d like to know

Just how you truly feel

For I am just not sure anymore

LOVE YOUR POEM!

[Shanna (Renae)]

This is really good and I like what you have to say.

The flow could use a bit of polishing up. Try reading it out loud, I find that does a lot for me.

I can feel you on this one... it is really tough when the one you love seems like they are in a different world and you begin to think it is your fault... communication is big in a relationship and if they don't try then it is useless... as for the poem very emotional and deep.

I sensed a relationship that went sour---one walking out but the other holding on. This could have worked out, if given another chance. The circumstance may be sad but the emotions expressed were free of pride. It's not something like getting back to get even.

This is a write that many of us can relate to, I believe. I've been there done that, only to realize in the end that it wasn't anything I did, or didn't do. Some people just seem to shut down from a variety of things, and others may have met another wish to be with them or just feel guilty. Nice work, you have expressed the feelings and emotions well.
