POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
I randomly write poetry but do not consider myself to be more than what I am. What I write may be from self expression of self or perhaps humorous. I am not a soul searching kind of writer. I enjoy feedback/comments.

Words I do not have them
only heart knows what I say
before they're overflowing
now my thoughts delay
Words all running wild
within my mind they scamper
trying to set them free
heart puts forth it's own damper
Words once said are done
no time can ever erase
forgiveness only choice
pain shown on the face
Words of "I'm sorry" lose meaning
when too often they are used
like slap to face for some
The heart is now abused
Words can mean so much

Never is Forever
by gentlegirl
Crying in the night
muffled by a hand
Knowing it wont stop
heart flows with demand
Instincts speaking clear
run run run away
He's not for you Dear
words she can't obey
Without him how she live
death cries to dismiss
Aching heart so real
soothed with just his kiss
She leaves and dies a little
til in is arms again
His voice is like a magnet
drawing her within
So smooth his words to her
her heart she did give
The soul is one with him
as long as both shall live
...

The final I love you
A love so beautiful
now tarnished with stain
his cold spirit shown
in hopes to gain
Now days are filled with pain
while shattered dreams lay
crumpled on the floor
where he left her yesterday
To be a day of celebration
soon covered with shards of red
her heart like finer crystal
she now prayed to be dead
Her pleadings went unheard
his hardened heart shown through
leaving her words unfinished
all said was, "I love you".
A wife left all alone

like spring clouds in the...

Is this Forever?
My heart hurts like knives twisting inside
while it bleeds teardrops of pain
My Birthday spent in agony without him
as days drag on to weeks
no food satisfies no drink diminishes my thirst for him
thoughts of him never leave to give me rest
eyes now swollen and red like a drunkard
drunk on my love for him
does he know what he is doing to me?
Would he care?
With anguish i listen to his goodbye on my Birthday
While I begged to no avail please don't go
sleep eludes me while in agony I lay in my bed
waiting listening hoping crying begging...

Anew
by gentlegirl
copywrite
Begin again as friends
to mend our broken hearts
Anger we hold within
amiss to be apart
Grasping now to touch
before we say goodbye
Now to be just friends
hiding tears we cry
Future lost with lies
both at fault I fear
Loss of trust by one
the reason for us here
To no avail we tried
to mend this broken trust
consumed with voice inside
Mind in the past is thrust
One standing all alone
Patientence now so thin
Words so easily spoken
gentleness held within
...

Why I Leave
by gentlegirl
Why I Leave
gentlegirl
I cannot stay for fear i cry
for words you say to me
my gentle heart hears too well
from feel of rath I flee
You say I do not worry
you feelings i ignore
my heart you still carry
now is hurt once more
I only ask if you okay
my feel of you is sad
you anger to me quickly
gives feeling you are mad
Intent from me was love
and how you are I care
you say i not thi nk of you
but I not think thats fair
See my message to you
review it with your heart...

Library of my Heart
by gentlegirl
The library is cataloged
and all is kept in place
using every shelf
trying to save space
You enter realm of silence
no talking to be done
to browse books unencumbered
interest comes with some
One taken from the shelf
perhaps you like the cover
reading bits and pieces
no interest you discover
Moving to the next
you scour the outer look
liking what you see
you delve into the book
Mind hindered by a thought
of life and all untold
the secrets of the heart
begin to now unfold...

Naive No More
by gentlegirl
Words you use so often
now ring of hollow sound
i love you i'm sorry
just fall to the ground
what you say and do
two different things indeed
this little naive Spanish girl
wanted to believe
She trusted you completely
gave heart and all to you
but what you say and do
she now know none was true
you call another darling
while telling her the same
you say I love you too
but to a different name
The Spanish girl so true
trusting your every say
giving all she had
to learn of lies...

Glimpse of What
by gentlegirl
run through life
at such a pace
giving love
without a face
while at least
the joy you seek
short in time
allowed a peek
smell and taste
delight in feel
to you amazed
thoughts of real
laughter rings
like bells peal
words believed
and lies conceal
actions true
not long to face
broken hearts
talk of space
one so true
without the other
meaningless love
why to bother
pieces of heart
fall to ground
joy to sadness
all now found

Ruined
by gentlegirl
The twist and turns of life
of love now gone bad
of future only spoiled
the story now so sad
For love he did blacken
with words of deceit
she the ivory princess
his angel oh so sweet
Off limits is the bed
desires of the heart
another he brought in
breaking them apart
She a broken mass
tears to fill a stream
he with begging arms
I never break our dream
How you do she said
you break into my heart
a million little pieces
to fix there is no start
Die was her only wish...

No More
by gentlegirl
no more beautiful face
or feel of loving hands
i hear no voice of love
no voice of distant land
In agony my heart screams
tears as rivers flow
no look back and no return
I have no place to go
My body's wracked with pain
no cure for this is known
i close my eyes to see you
the memories we have grown
i smell you now so clear
your scent is mixed with mine
sobs taking every breath
thoughts vivid in my mind
Frozen now in place
My body still with pain
No breath to me does come
my...

The Lie
The Lie
(for the man I love)
by gentlegirl
O my God what have I done
how could I have said to him
you lie you lie you lie to me
I hurt so much within
So untrue of the man I love
never could this be he
most beautiful man I know
can he ever forgive me
I say words out of anger
my body aches with pain
i only want you to hurt
its driving me insane
How can I leave you my love
why it has to be
its not fair to us
this illness sent to me
I know I hurt you badly
I cut you with my knife...
