Nathan.



I almost lost you, love of mine.
Like a feather in the breeze, you were almost gone.
The time without you was an empty time,
I knew surely- I'd never move on.
I couldn't bear to think of how to forget,
when it wasn't our choices that forced us apart.
It was the voices of others- their ideas set,
convinced that I wasn't good for your heart.
Finally though- the voices stopped,
allowed us a reunion- as sweet as can be.
Now you and I are back together,
and you are the world to me.
Those days, so recent, will soon be but a bitter memory,
although in honesty they brought me to the brink.
I know our future's waiting, so much we can't forsee,
but as long as you're with me I can't wait for it to begin.
So Nathan; you're my future,you help erase my past.
Nathan; you're my first love and you will be my last.

EMAIL ME AT sofisweetie@hotmail.com or add me on facebook for info on my other writing! https://www.facebook.com/SophieLarrrrrMarieMy name is Sophie Marie Roberts. I'm nearly 20 years old and I live in Wrexham, North Wales. I write poetry because it's one of the things that comes naturally. When I was a child I would try to write a diary like everyone else my age but I ended up with a book of poetry. I find it the easiest way to express what is happening in my mind too (which, in some cases, worries me- since my poetry is rather bizzare!) I don't have any diploma's, certificates or qualifications that tell me I should write but I write anyway. I hope people like my poetry- but I know it won't be everyone's cup of tea- but I hope it's yours. ALSO; PLEASE BE AWARE THAT ALLTHOUGH I WROTE 'THIS POEM MEANS' UNDERNEATH MY POEMS- I'M MERELY STATING WHAT IT MEANT IN MY HEAD. PLEASE INTERPRET MY POETRY HOWEVER YOU WISH. http://www.booksie.com/mystery_and_crime/short_story/inksplodges/bitter-freedom/chapter/1 < one of my short stories. more…
