I Wonder

As the nights grow longer I stare at the stars I wonder where you may be tonight The wind whispers in my ear He tells me that you’re safe in my mind Am I being deceived? Is it all a lie? I wonder if you miss me like I miss you My heart sings to me She tells me that you do But how do I believe something that’s been shattered before? How do I mend the broken pieces? I wonder if you still care The voices in my head pound at my skull They tell me that you always will Am I going crazy? Am I imagining that you’re still there? I walk down this empty street alone My bones feel hollow inside Are my demons escaping now? It’s like I’m sleepwalking I stumbleupon forgotten memories I fall to my knees I can’t let go Deep in my chest I feel my heartbeat begin to wither I wonder if you hurt like I do I wonder if you cry like I do I wonder if you feel worthless like I do I wonder if you’re happy without me I wonder, I wonder, I wonder

So much sadness for a young, beautiful, talented woman; it is hope that keeps us going. Namaste.

I wandered as well, until I heard his voice. Then I fell, because I had found a new place to dwell. Peace and many blessings to you Tatianna.

The last stanza grabbed me tightly for these are words I have hear myself uttering under my breath many times. This was fantastic.

Thank you. The inspiration actually came from my mother rather than an ex-boyfriend/girlfriend. Many of my friends think differently and see different things in my work, but that's just part of the beauty in poetry. Interpretaion.
