Crying in the Night
I go to bed,
With tears in my eyes
You lay right by my side
Sleep innocently as a child
My mind is empty
My heart is sore
My feelings were hurt
And you said it was my fault.
The fragile love we once have
Died some where along the years
We had nothing left,
To even offer or share.
I am here…I am near
A husband of nineteen years
My soul is crying
But you could not hear.
Many nights, I go to bed
With tears in my eyes, pain in my heart
And you lay there, by my side
Sound asleep, with your back against mine.

you so put the words hauntingly, i can almost feel the pain. and you are so good in capturing the best of the flowers, it seems the sunflower is in deep ponder too like the poem.
Icy, I hope you are not so sad anymore, that's a lot of pain for one person. You describe it well.
Back to the nature, think of its vastness, we shall realise how small we are.
No matter what we do upon the tree, he just accepts without second words. He will always forgive us.
A sad poem, but a very good one. I can feel the sadness and pain almost as if I were there.
betchai,
Your support is amazing, and I am very grateful to you..
Diane,
It's over now, and writing about it eases my pain a little..
rainfield,
I am paying more attention to nature, and also working through some hurtful emotional turmoil!
Ratty,
You're sweet! Writing it out is a way of letting it goes for me. It's very therapeutic!
aaaw how sad yet how sweet.i admire you for not hiding your emotions.i hope you're ok now.
That definitely went right through me.
Being with somwone and feeling so alone is worse than being alone.
Very sad but true....so many couples remain together and live just like this.
Life is just too short to be unhappy and feel invisible/

The yellow flower is incredibly looking. Beautiful!
That tears at my heart to read and feel such pain. It is poignant and difficult to bear yet beautifully written and expressed.

You're absolutely right about "Being with someone and feeling so alone is worse than being alone."
Wise words!

Thank you for your kind words.
Michele,
You're too kind!
Haven't talk to you for a while...Hope things are all right with you.
very haunting and sad..
I feel that trouble in the poem, as I felt something similiar many times. But because I set myself in that trap. It is nice that you give yourself in writing of that expression, as it greatly helps. Clearly highlights the underlayer of what you are going through.
Unknownwriter and Almost Lover,
Writing is therapeutic for me, so I'm not shy with using words..

i am crying for you, for all that pain, for lonely nights, for silent tears.
