Just Saying

 

Sitting here dreaming,

thinking only of you.

Loving you thoughts,

begging me to make do.

 

Singing our love songs,

dancing sadly alone.

Playing with words,

hoping feelings are shown.

 

Promising I’m close,

breathing you in.

Just saying that

I’m wishing I was

kissing you again.

 

 

Just Sayin’!

 

Sittin’ here dreamin’

thinkin’ only of you!

Lovin’ you thoughts,

beggin’ me to make do.

 

Singin’ our love songs,

dancin’ sadly alone.

Playin’ with words,

hopin’ feelings are shown.

 

Promisin’ I’m close,

breathin’ you in.

Just sayin’!

I’m wishin’ I was

kissin’ you again.

 

A note from Chris

A lonesome tree, or a tree that is alone?  I suppose it certainly looks a little lonely.  I choose to see it as something strong, so secure, and in it’s proper place!

One other observation! There could possibly be a gerund or two in this particular piece. Just sayin’ !

  1. I really like this one Chris. Really Beautiful

  2. I love the first way you wrote the poem. It really touched me & and I know how it is to lose a spouse. It had more feeling.

  3. the second feels much more lyrical, casual…maybe not so polished…to me that speaks a bit more of love…smiles….nice write…

    • Brian, I agree completely! I think I was trying re-learn what a gerund was… and just how many I could possibly use in a poetic way! Guess it was a “re-learning experience”! Thanks for commenting as always!
