am i not the you you knew?

am i not the you you knew?

where is yesterday's friend,
the one that vowed to love, to the very end?

where is yesterday's love, the one that vowed eternal love?

is today's friend destined to travel the same path, too?

is today's friend tomorrow's used to be, too?

why do friendships come and go?
am i the bad guy you used to know?

you took a part of this broken heart,
a thousand pieces strewn about.

the time we spent, the days we shared,
it surely seemed you cared.

a person here, a person there,
now you're gone to who knows where.

once i tried to name you all,
left me sad, beneath a funerary pall.

once i tried to forget you all,

you visit me in my dreams and all.

you visit me there, but never here,
at times i wake and i'm in tears.

when i wake it hits me that
forgotten times have turned to crimes.

i knew you once you knew me too,
now you're gone and you're not you.

am i not the you you knew?

A Long

❤ ❤ ❤

Someone asked, "What would your life be without color?" I answered, "My life would be pallid and pale without color. Each day would be drab, dreary and dismal. There'd be no primary colors, no rainbows, no yellow sunshine, no red-blue-yellow sunsets and no white clouds. No white snow or black storm clouds. I'd walk in an indistinct and neutral existence. No green trees, no green grass, no blue seas, no blue skies, would leave me cheerless and dry. My face would not turn red with anger or embarrassment. My face would not turn white with fear or pain. I'd not grow green with envy. Nothing would be just black and white. My life would be full of motionless emotion, if there were no color. © 2013 ajwrites57 Image URI: http://mrg.bz/fwDYZp Image URI: http://mrg.bz/g6haeq By Hairysuncold Please find my other writings on Hub...

Love Builds - Love Makes

These poems are dedicated to my friend +kim hodges and to new love. Love Builds MARCUZZI AND FRA By lufra Love builds, blossoms, blooms. Love covers, hovers, discovers. Love flowers, showers, empowers. Love thinks, remembers, forgets. Love grows, knows, shows. Love shields, yields, heals. Love finds, blinds, binds. © 2013 ajwrites57 A Long Love Makes Love makes you fly, gets you high. Love makes laugh, makes you cry. Love makes you sigh, makes you wanna try. Love gets you giddy, makes you feel pretty, Love empowers you to take a city! Love makes you happy, makes you feel sappy. Love makes your heart sing, Love gives you thoughts of queens and kings. © 2013 ajwrites57 A Long Photo By CynthiaNaniOKeefe If you enjoyed these poems, find more here.
