I Can't Get You Off My Mind


I Can't Get You Off My Mind 

My love for you I can not fight  
I hold my pillow hoping it would  
Be you when I get out of bed . 
I have tried with all my might to get 
You off my mind . 
I close my eyes and all I see you  
Oh this is making me so blue  
Because I know I cannot hold you , 
You are so faraway I cry each and  
Every day just wishing I was with you  
What must my poor heart to do ? 
block my ears and in my head all I hear  
Is you calling out my name even in my dreams , 
I sat at the end of my bed and I start to pray  
To please send you my way . 
Then when I got trough crying for you  
I looked out my window wishing you was doing 
The same calling out each others name . 
When I got myself back in bed I gone to sleep 
And when morning come everything was like a dream 
You was stand right by me .

To all my readers you may see that their are grammar errors in my old writings, but these writing are from the 90's ,2000's. I truly didn't think anyone was readying my work . so I just started writing out what I felt and made my pains a story and poems . I had re post these poems and stories all over the internet and I keep them also in file so no one can ever say my work is theirs . I have kept my work as they are just for others to see where it was I started my writing at . The pains are so real not even a game ,The life I had lived I would never wish upon no one . I like to say to all who are taking the steps for change in their life congratulations to the new open doors God bless you . You may have seen my photos on the internet and my writings on Poetry.com and poem hunter etc. you may have seen the hate that others have given to me about my work and my beauty of who I am . But as you can see I will never let the haters Stop me from doing what I love . So I say the same to all of you write your own words and let your heart speak to all your readers . I hope you can understand why I haven't made changes in my work at less not the old ones . My old work are left as they are for me to always remember where it all came from . God bless to all who reads . Lilly Emery /Judy Emery
