The End of Me

The end of me started when I first saw

You

The end of me begun with our first

Touch

Your fingertips grazed my hand

That's where it all began the beginning of my ending

I kinda, thought I knew

It was bound to happen

It's always been that way

Since the dawn of time and till this very day

With me this seems to be a pattern

I know you believed in us, too

That we would be together for an

Eternity

I truly and thoroughly did believe it

Unpleasing; but, still a battle won

You and I; at least we gave it a ten year

Try

Although; I still don't know Why? You stopped believing

I still believe in you; you know I do

Love you forever and a day

Sinbad; your sailor

About This Poem

About the Author

Region, Country: U.S. A. Indiana, Valparaiso, USA

Favorite Poets: Robert Frost, Walt Whitman, Samuel Taylor Coleridge, Carl Sandburg these I have read some And so Many More. I have no Favorite or any that I dislike. Whom I consider to be poets; of course there are many Dark and hateful souls, who would cry out and to I will lend an ear, but some. They just leave a awful taste in my heart that I can not bear to read twice. Let alone as many times I would do normally; as I must.

Hello,

Instead of "unpleasing" you could use the word "unattractive." My poem didn't come out the way I typed it either, I think it is one of the problems that they are working to solve. I can relate to this poem. Always, Cat

I was thinking along the lines of

un atanable or un apeaseable but I did not have a thusaurous or a dictionary within my reach without giving up my computer time at the berry to the forever waiting teenies waiting to check thier my-space pages my spelling abilites are limited with out these things handy Love is atractive but I find it more pleasing for beauty pales where as service or devotion are choices rather then gifts even though beauty is said to be in the eye of the beholder actions speak louder to me then superficial shells the inner being is what I seek but I can not lie and say I was not drawn to her first by the wrapping paper she was sporting but we really don't know what we have till we peal away the layers all of us are not oinions some are totally different once they begin to shuck away their protective layers for what ever reason
