Don’t Promise

Don’t promise

Don’t promise that nothing has changed

Don’t act like I’m still your friend and lover

I have faded in your mind

I have faded from your life

I have become an afterthought

Something you wish wasn’t there anymore

Don’t promise

Don’t promise I will be a part of your life

Don’t tell me I still matter

When all your actions prove otherwise

I am no longer important to you

I have faded from your thoughts

I have faded from your life

Don’t promise

Don’t promise that we are still friends

Because it hurts more than you can know

My Dreams

Filed Under: Poems by RonD — 1 Comment
March 29, 2010

My dreams are always fleeting things

Sometimes I dream of smooth skin and hot kisses

Others, I see visions best left unseen

At times they are just reflections of the mundane

Nothing to truly speak of

But, the best dreams I have

Are me touching your face

In that warm, familiar way

The touch that says you are a part of me

And I am here for you, no matter what

The dreams I fear the most

Reaching for you and having you disappear

Forever out of my life

Yes, my dreams are fleeting things

I just pray that my reality is not so fleeting

And when I reach for you

You are there, waiting for my touch

What Could Have Been

Filed Under: Poems by RonD — 1 Comment
March 24, 2010

As I stand here, looking at the path before me

I find myself still thinking, what could have been

Did I live my life the way it was intended?

Did I love the way I needed to?

Do I regret what has happened in my time here?

Did I live? Not always as I wanted, submitting to the will of others

Did I love? With all my heart and soul, but not always for the best

Do I regret? Sometimes I feel some pangs of regret

I examine myself, knowing I have faults

The man who says he has none is a fool

And as I look again, I find the answers

Did I live? Who can say if the journey was worth it until you arrive? But I stopped to admire the view

Did I love? Yes…completely

Do I regret? No longer

The Crossroads

Filed Under: Poems by RonD — 2 Comments
February 2, 2010

I stood at the crossroads, my decision made

I am me, the me I am now, not the me I was

I waited for you

You stood at the crossroads with me

I hoped you would still want to be with me

I wanted to be with you

The me I am now, not the me I was

But you chose a different way

You could not see me as the person I am

The me I am now, not the me I was

I am sorry that the me I am is not the me you want

My Words

Filed Under: Poems by RonD — 1 Comment
January 20, 2010

My words have always been difficult for me

They escape me many times

And often I’ve wondered if you have heard them at all

But now that I have found my voice

You assume it is for another

That my words do not include you

So you choose to not hear them

My words are a reflection of me

They are thoughts that I have

They are tools to put images to paper

It is not a reflection of what I desire

Please hear my words

My words will continue

My images will move on paper

My desire is for you

But my words have always been difficult for me

Distance

Filed Under: MfM, Poems by RonD — 1 Comment
December 21, 2009

This is the part I hate

Being so far away from her

Not being able to reach out and touch her

I curse the distance, wishing that it were not the case

Why has fate cursed me so?

Why has she chosen to put me so far from her?

What crime have I committed?

What transgression is mine?

The answers elude me

Taunt me with their ephemeral quality

I resolve to do all in my power to bridge the distance

To not allow my circumstances dictate my happiness

I long for the day when the distance is gone

And she is in my arms once more

Her Breath

Filed Under: MfM, Poems by RonD — 1 Comment
September 21, 2009

The sounds of her breath affect me in so many ways

Her concern lightens my mood

Her encouragement makes me strong

Her laugh makes my heart sing

Her affection makes me whole

Her moan drives me mad

Her sigh completes me

Soul Sharing

Filed Under: Musings, Poems by RonD — 6 Comments
August 28, 2009

She shared a piece of her soul today.

A treasured piece.

A piece that had moved her to tears

The sharing moved me

Stirred a part of me

How do I tell her

How do I show her

That she has captured a piece of my soul?
