You have lost her..

You have left
but the memories stay
What did I do
to be treated this way.

I look into the mirror
and I see your face again
I am a fool,
the mirror says the same.

Why did I believe
everything you told me
I stare in emptiness and hope
that you will come and hold me.

Days become months,
there is no sign of you
And all this while I thought
that you loved me too.

Should I move on now
or wait a bit more
Should I trust him who says
I'm the one he adores.

The wound that you gave me
will take a while to heal
And till then I am wondering
if I should believe what I feel.

Flowers bloom and stars shine
love is in the air
But to give away my heart
I cannot dare.

Your promises, your kisses
was everything fake?
Or was there a message for me
that I could not take.

I am awake from my dream now
and I want you to remember
There was someone who really loved you
but now you have lost her.

Jess..

Thanks for going through. And also for the writing tips. I will definitely keep them in mind. Regarding the lost love poems.. well, I agree that it is a common and trite topic to write on. This one, though, was for a dear friend who is back to her normal life after a long time of emotional turmoil. I am hoping that you will come back for reading my next poems and also hoping that you wont be so disappointed! Cheers Samaira.
