in depth look at poem: while going through and organizing my poetry I came upon yet another poem that I wrote for her that was not on my page.. so I'm putting it here now.


        he rips you from me

        ripping myself away from you
        was like tearing out my heart.
        I want to talk to you.
        I want to talk to you.
        for the pleasure I get from reading your words
        is uncomparable to anything.
        and he won't let me.
        but he won't let me.
        and the sadness fills me....
