I sit down at my desk
Pick up my favorite pen
Take a piece of paper
Settle back, and then
I find myself at a loss
Over the words I should say
I stare at the blank
Bit of paper all day
Wondering how
I could ever tell
You what's in my heart
And how I can spell
All that burns
Deep down inside
All the things
That I've never tried
To tell you before
To let you know
To ask you to stay
And never let me go
But how could I find
(Though I searched the whole earth)
The proper words to say
Just how much you're worth?
You are all I am
The beginning and the end
You mean everything to me
On you alone I'll depend
But every time
I try to tell you, my dear
The words I thought I'd say
They up and disappear
I think I'll never find
The one word to convey
The way you take my breath
Till I have no words to say

I believe in Jesus Christ as my Savior. If you do too and aren't scared to admit it, then copy and paste this in your signature.

Note: please pay attention to metre. It makes a poem so much better, if it has a rhythm. If you're going to rhyme your lines, having the metre out makes the rhymes seem out of time as well. Poetry that isn't rhyming (like most of mine) doesn't need metre as much, but it still adds a bit of a balance to it.

"Come near and talk to me, baby
How did you know you were the dream of this dreamer?
Oh God, how I thank you for reading
In my heart the note
I didn't even know that I wrote
Of what I longed for
You gave me much more
Love is standing beside me"
Okay. I'll try to pay more attention to metre from now on. My poem "Lullaby" is my latest poem where I paid attention ^^'

I hate loneliness, but it loves me.
I know where i am but I don't know where i am going.
I am fighting a war within myself, with no end in sight...
