for you i would

Anny McNeilus 1982 (Minnesota)



I wish I could take all the anger and pain from inside of you
I wish you were not so cynical and blind to what is true
 I'd do anything to make you smile
 I give up so much to feel your love if only for a short while
 you dangle your love in front of me me only to jerk it away
 and yet I still believe that we will be together someday
 though I feel beaten by your words and actions
you walking away over and over brings no satisfaction
 the connection between us undeniable
 the feelings you put in me undescribable
 I pray that you will hold me in your arms forever
the ties you've entwined into my heart, nothing can sever

Writing since the 9th grade I think... LoL best time for a girl to find an outlet... And I just Love words.. I'd like to expand to song writing as well-though I'm a bit clueless on the how-to... Any helpful hints and suggestions are welcome and greatly appreciated-I'm loving this site-as I am broadening my spectrum on what can b defined as poetry... Thank u all for sharing n for giving my words a chance to flow more…
