Original Poems by Me

Silent Pleading

With all the heartbreak
The pain and sorrow
You came to give me a break
Or at least until tomorrow

There's always the chance
That will change tomorrow
There's always the chance
That I'll return to sorrow

I love you, my beautiful shadow
And though you wouldn't know
Of the feelings I refuse to show
Up inside my little mind

I beg you to stay every night
And cry in the confines of
A place so out of sight
That even I can't see it

You don't hear me cry for you
Or ask you to please not leave
Because I could never ask you to
Stay here with someone like me

But I do hope that you do
Unlike those who all have left
Who have made me blue
I just hope that you do

I hope you'll stay,
Although, honestly,
I wouldn't ask you anyway,
Because even I don't want to stay

Sometimes,
Most times,
Bad times,
And worse times.
