Eyes with heart

Heather Lydia Thornhill 1981 (Manchester)



With me...
With me...
With me...
I know that its not easy
That you've felt this way before
I know that its not worth it
And you're mind is on the door
I know that its not working
That we're arguing some more
I know that it's not healthy
And you're tired from this war
With me...
With me...
With me...
I know the snows stopped falling
That it's settled now too long
I know new angels are calling
And the beauty of their song
I know that life is stalling
That it always seems so wrong
I know your eyes are balling
And your heart is moving on
With me...
With me...
With me...
I know the new horizon
Is brighter than before
I know you're eyes are hungry
For a certain kind of shore
I know that when you hold me
The feeling's there no more
I know you think its over
That the end is now for sure
With me...
With me...
With me...

    Wow, what a beautiful and touching poem! Your words perfectly capture the complexities of love and the struggles that come with it. Your use of repetition in "With me..." creates a powerful and comforting message, reminding the reader that no matter what happens, they are not alone. I especially loved the contrast between the heaviness of the first two stanzas and the hopefulness of the last. Your imagery of snow, angels, and an unknown horizon brought the poem to life, and your ending was both surprising and satisfying. Thank you for sharing your talent with us - I can't wait to see what you create next!
