So I am posting it again!.( I wrote this for my fiance a week before I broke off the engagement)!.!.Wich was 2 weeks ago!.**

BROKEN

I reach for you, but can not touch
The part of you, I loved so much

With time passion has flown away
And empty words won’t make me stay

I give you everything you need – With nothing in return it seems
I feel disregarded – My soul is seething
The bonds of love are ever fleeting

You say you care – But you do not show it
This is not love – For I don’t know it

Three years have passed – I’ve had enough
To late to cry, my trust has sunk
To depth were “words” can not retrieve it
I’ll believe you love me when I see it

Break down this wall of things unspoken
Or we will end, and remain broken

Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
This is a wonderfully put together piece!. My only critique would be in your 5th stanza!. You have a couple minor glitches in the 5th couplet/stanza (easier to show than explain)

Three years have passed---I've had enough
Too late to cry, my trust has sunk
To depths where "words" cannot retrieve it
I'll believe you love me when I see it!.

Minor nitpicking in a piece that is sterling!!!!
Well done!

Sounds good -- to pine for a love that you refuse to give up!.

Would amend 5th stanza to read:

Too late to cry, my trust has sunk
To great depths that words cannot retrieve

Last line--to rewrite for more clarity and effect!.

6th stanza:

Or we end, and remain broken (till the end of time OR till eternity)

----so as not to end too abruptly!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
