Description: Well...I'm not really sure about this. It came to me in my english lecture and is written in the margins of my book next to Gerard Manley Hopkin's "Carrion Comfort". I don't know where it came from, but it has been the only burst of inspirtation I've had in a long while...so I'm not complaining. I'm not sure, so let me know what you think. I almost feel like I could divide it into two different poems, but...I'll stop rambling.
Stay -------------------------------------------
Don't leave me...please.
Don't go away.
I don't know how
to make you stay.
I love you, but
I turn around
and you disappear
without a sound.
I see you there
across the room.
Did you leave me,
or did I leave you?
Was I the one
who let you down?
After all...
I turned around.
Forgive me...please.
Just don't go.
Can't you see
I love you so?
hmm. not so sure i see two seperate poems here. i mean this is pretty concise and to the point. about as straightforward as a piece of poetry could be.
confused,guilty feelings mixed with a shot of paranoia.on the rocks.
good,good
