Here's one I'm working on. It's not done yet so any suggestions are more than welcome.


Let's run away tonight
like banshees through the mist
no cares, no hopes, no worries or dreams
just two wild souls hidden in flight

In the darkness we can scream
while wet blades of grass slap our legs
as we run from the world and each other
into the open arms of a heavenly dream

Can you see the moon laughing at you and me?
She thinks we've lost our minds
but that's ok, let's run faster
and show her what it means to be free

We race until our legs ache
then tumble into the wild flowers
I glance over at you with a smile and a tear
for I know it's almost time for my banshee heart to break

Daylight rises and I try to hang on
to burn your face into my mind
it was just a dream, you left long ago
and I've been alone all along.




this is dedicated to a lost friend if anybody is wondering

Daylight rises
 
thats beautifull....

i dont know what needs to be worked on... its hard to loss a friend, the pain and loss is so reall in your poem... im so writing that one down, if you dont mind...

dont change a thing... its so emotive and Gorgeous
 
thank you so much. I'm glad you liked it and of course, you are more than welcome to write it down :)
 
title... maybe
'Long Ago' or 'Left Long Ago'
'All Alone' or "Alone All Along"
the last two of each line have nice aliteration.
'Wild Souls'
'Running for You' perhaps somethging with run in it, as you mention it in 3 verses and racing in another, along with the word flight, and refrences to escaping some hidden danger or fear.

i think the title needs to capture the frantic need to escape with this person. a need, a desire...

once again i think this is a beautiful poem. tell me what you think of the sugesstions. what sort of think did you have in mind? who was the person you wrote it for, or about, if i may ask?
 
thank you jessi-ma-ca those are all great suggestions! I really like Alone All Along, Wild Souls and Running For you....I will seriously consider all three of those!

The person I wrote this for....well... I once had somebody in my life that meant very much to me. I couldn't make it work though. No matter what I did it was always wrong. I still ache to have them in my life but I guess it's not meant to be. I'll always hold them in my heart though, no matter what.
 
thats all that matter, that you remember them with a smile and dont get down on yourself for losing thwm in the first place... a friend of mine died last year, so i know its hard... even harder when you know they are just around the corner and you cant have them...

Eternity...
if i were to shed a single tear
for every creatures death
i would have been crying since
the dawn of time till the far reaches of
eternity
and in this sorrow no retribution or
solace will be found

so i will shead a single tear for
all those i have cared for
still i will be crying for what seem
to me, to be an eternity

a little poem....
 
wow that poem is great...it really hit the mark about how I've been feeling. I'm very sorry about the loss of your friend. It is hard losing somebody.
 
its always hard losing someone, whether a friend or an ex. these sort of things always take time to heal... and i always find it hard cause i ALWAYS dwell on things, thinking i can revive a relationship etc.... my crushes last forever, the guys i like never change. i still think im destined to be with this one guy, but really its never going to happen... it never really hapened, actually more like a summer fling... oh-well.
 
I know exactly how you feel. The love of my life never really was....and I can't let go. Someday we will both be strong enough to move on and remember what happy feels like.
