words escape me

By Just a Rose

Sometimes words escape me
How do I explain how much I care?
How much I need you
How right you are?

I never thought I needed to say more
Those precious three words
What more proof do you want?

I touch you with all my heart
I speak into your eyes
Obviously you are numb to these

Can’t you see my soul yearns for you?
My heart beats for you

You say you’re confused
Why would I care?
How could I not?

All I can be is myself
I’m showing you the only way I know
If that’s not good enough for you then…

It’s no use
I’m no good

This is exactly how I feel about my soon to be ex wife, 2 years of separation, doing everything I can, and she won't give me the time of day. Your poem hit me hard....

This Is Fabulous. I don't know who it is that says you're no good, but they must be stupid. I wish I could have written this.
