Without your love

by Chevvy, posted in Poetry

I could tell you that I really love you

And not mean a word I say.

I could tell you that I’m thinking of you

When instead, my mind is far away.

If only you would take a closer look

You’ll see what I see in the mirror.

My fears and doubts and roundabouts

Of telling you how I really feel.

That my heart skips a beat each time we meet.

You arouse my mind like no one else did.

The touch of your hand sends flurries to every nerve.

You burn into the deepest part of my soul.

Without you, I can exist.But what I really want

Is to truly live.

I’m not truly living at all without your love.

A new world

by Chevvy, posted in Poetry

It’s not the same anymore.

I can feel the silence.

I hear the empty rooms.

I pace the wooden floors.

Vacillating between

Arrays of emotions.

I want to believe,

So earnestly believe!

Then I see the look in their eyes…

Is it fear for them or me?

It gets cloudy and I cannot see.

Then I begin to babble

To block out the deafening silence.

I have to believe!

Be resolute and firm in my belief.

Remind myself of the race

Which I have run,

Crossing so many tracks,

Jumping so many hurdles

Lancing the javelin into the air!

Then hearing the crowds’ applause,

I have to begin, I have to believe!

That a new world has opened its doors.
