| Selfish |
| ~Anupam Chatterjee~ |
| In the middle of the night,
when I'm awake and feel somethings missing,
I just think about you.
When my life is in despair,
the person who lifts my soul,
is none other than you.
Whenever I have a problem,
the person who always has the solution,
has got to be you.
When my life was shattered,
the only person who gave me a reason to live,
had to be you.
The person I love to hear from,
irrespective of whatever you have to say,
is my beloved, that is ofcourse you.
The person with whome I want to spend,
my entire life with,
can be no one else but only you.
The person in whose arms I would like to die,
when the day comes,
should be none other than you.
And for all that,
if you feel I am being selfish, think again,
because I cannot help when it comes to you!! |

| Promises Made |
| ~Christopher~ |
| Yesterday's goals, dim memories.
Dark saddened eyes, blurring with tears.
Painful scars borne; Love's history.
Futures crumble when doubt appears. No brightly lit hope envisioned,
When following after harsh words.
Hurt soul splits in twain, partitioned.
Swooned by appeal - when numbness lured. Apologies made, never bought.
Price paid turned out far too costly.
Though never known what would be wrought -
Must walk into the night softly. One wish, only to be released.
Granted - now receive this token.
Words written in rhyme, love's deceased.
When promises made . . . were broken. |

| To Watch You Leaving |
| ~Jocelyn Galvano-Pickett~ |
| To Watch You Leaving . . .
is to know such pain, it's jagged edges tearing into my soul. As a stake from the garden tears into the warm, dark earth.
To Watch You Leaving . . .
knowing all the while that never again will I fit myself, warm with sleep, against your solid back. Nor hear your steady breathing. Or feel the beating of your heart.
To Watch You Leaving . . .
aware in every moment of every day that my dreams, my future; once tied with silken ribbons to yours, will never come to be. And the mornings once so silent and hopeful, us gazing at the mountains and so gently awaiting forever - are now but small pieces of my past.
To Watch You Leaving . . .
your heart a tight fist of anger and your dry eyes betraying nothing of you. I cry for both of us, my love, because you will not.
To Watch You Leaving . . .
is to know that I've lost my place on this earth. My station. My heart's home. That I will wander, forever a nomad. Alone and afraid. And in my troubled dreams watch you leave, again and again. For the balance of my days. |

| Seek Not My Heart |
| ~Kit McCallum~ |
| Oh gentle winds 'neath moonlit skies,
Do not you hear my heartfelt cries? Below the branches, here about,
Do not you sense my fear and doubt?
Side glistening rivers, sparkling streams,
Do not you hear my woeful screams? Upon the meadows, touched with dew,
Do not you see my hearts a'skew?
Beneath the thousand twinkling stars,
Do not you feel my jagged scars? Seek not my mournful heart kind breeze,
For you'll not find it 'mongst these trees. It's scattered 'cross the moonlit skies,
Accompanied by heartfelt sighs.
It's drifting o're the gentle rain,
A symbol of my silent pain. It's buried 'neath the meadow fair,
Conjoined with all the sorrow there.
It's lost among the stars this night,
Too far to ease my quiet fright. No gentle winds, seek not my heart,
For simply ... it has torn apart. |

| Slow Tears |
| ~Martini~ |
| I look up
as a tear rolls slowly
down my cheek
I think about better days
and wonder if I'll feel that way again
you look at me
with those eyes I know so well
always serious, so deep and insightful
as though you're always in control
But not today
not now
Now you look so scared
like for once you don't have the answer
I gaze at you
looking deep into those hazel eyes
Hoping to understand
why you've said those things you did
I wonder for a moment
if this is all a dream
if I shall wake in the morning
and be relieved
you look at me
with a confusion I have never seen
slowly pull me towards you
and wipe the tears from my cheek |
