"Tragedy is when I cut my finger. Comedy is when you fall into an open sewer and die." - Mel Brooks


I know
We never could have worked
But sometimes I wish
I could see you again

Your warmth
Your touch
Of all the times I knew you
I need you now the most

[So why can't you see me
Why do I feel invisible
Tell me did you hate me
Am I not good enough

Roses on the floor
Maintained by my repetition
Flooded by all my tears
But you'll never know ]

Everything I told you
Everything about myself
You should know
Do my tears go unnoticed

Somehow
If you come back
I'm not sure I'll be happy
I might be gone by then

[]

You'll never see my roses
See your name written in red and white
Sometimes devotion is a sickness

And you can't see me
Lying here all alone
I feel so unloved by you
But soon the pain will all go away

Roses on the floor
Maintained by my repetition
Flooded by my tears
But you'll never know

Thank you! And sure, I'll try, if I have time.

Wow. You've managed to portray  feelings of love, loss, betrayal, and helplessness. It's a really strong and great poem. :)

If you have time, could you check out my song "Fly Away" and let me know what you think?
