You Walked Away



The morning sun lights up the room
My thoughts run straight to you
Your face displayed within my mind
My soul is torn in two

You once proclaimed your love for me
But then you walked away
The love I carried in my heart
It could not make you stay

The phone beside my bed it rings
My hopes again renewed
The voice that greets me as I speak
Again...It is not you

Why can't you see I'm all you need?
Why can't you be with me?
These thoughts replayed a thousand times
Oh how do I get free?

    "Lost love is always a tempting thing to write about and this has to be one of the best I've seen in awhile. Emotional and full of angst Jon, I really liked this one."

  5. Thank you, Jon, for your kind congratulations! I am glad you enjoyed my Valentine poem. Shame I don't have a Valentine, but worse things could happen in life. In all loss it is painful, but thank God it all heals with time. Enjoyed your poem! God bless, Maureen
