"Dream like you'll live forever. Live like you'll die tomorrow." -James Dean. I love this quote!!!!!! :)


I can’t stand the silence.
I can’t stand the fights.
There is between us a fence.
We hurt each other most nights.

I yell things I later regret.
After I always cry.
Time I wish to reset
back to when our love flew high.

We sleep separate together in bed.
Is this how we will spend forever?
My heart breaks with each word said.
I use to think we belonged together.

A door is harshly shut,
another fight ended with a slam.
My heart is freshly cut
And I think our love is damned.

I tell you my fears of our lost love.
I ask if we’ve wasted all these years.
Are we destined to push and shove?
Will I always have to hide my tears?

We sleep separate together in bed.
Is this how we will spend forever?
My heart breaks with each word said.
I use to think we belonged together.

You listen to me confess my heart
and I fear the worst.
Will phases of separation start?
My heart feels as if it will burst.

But you pull me into your embrace
And I feel the warmth that I miss.
My heart begins to race
when you give me a passionate kiss.

I cry when you tell me you are sorry.

Now we sleep in each other’s arms in bed,
and this is how we will be forever.
My heart is strengthened with each word said.
I know once again we belong together.

The author's comments:
This poem is a lyric poem and one I wrote after the assignment in Creative Writing. It started out as a normal poem, but then, it transformed into this. I actually wrote this while at my aunt and uncle's house. I don’t really know where this idea came from but I was really happy that I was able to give this a good ending. Many of my poems with problems of the heart don’t have a happy ending.

"I'd rather have an enemy who tells me that she/he hates me than to keep a friend whose mission is to put me down secretly."

Awee, that's so heart-warming. It's like you're reading word by word what your heart is telling you.
