TRANQUILIZING LOVE


Tranquilizing Love  

Your love is like a tranquilizing of the dark  
You even taken my heart ;  
Deep down in me I find love for you,  
But hate comes to mind like a rhyme,   
Of a lost in time, 
heated up night ,  
For some reason I don't feel the same as I   
Once did in my life, 
I can't explain it ,  
But letting you go was okay ,  
Your love is like a wild storm that never goes away,   
And brings so much heartaches ,  
The shame of your love is to much for me to hang on to,  
I let you go so give me back my soul , 
My heart has gone cold, 
You still kept running deep in my mind , 
you make me want to scream ; 
you even haunt me in my sleep ,  
I am not the best person in your life ,  
But I am not a bad one ,  
I don't deserve your kind of love ,  
Darkness is your game, your love , shame and blame,   
I can't live that way ! 
Set me free please ,  
I made a promise to always love you ,  
I will never break that promise , 
I love you,  
But not the same way you love me ,  
If you come out of the dark and change to light of day   
My love for you will run deep ,  
Your love in the dark is killing me ,   
Taken all my strength from me ,  
Your love is lukewarm ,  
I was always loyal and honest to you ,  
You were always about you and your needs ,  
You gave me lies and false dreams of what a love could be ,  
Never had I make you doubt my love for you ,   
I never broke a promise I made to you ,  
But only you did all those bad things to me, 
And even called me Nona of your dreams ,  
Your accomplishments was you with me ,  
Your true happiness is me ,  
But your love hurts to much it makes my heart bleed ,  
I want you to never suffer nor cry,  
Yet I was the best for you and the life you live ,  
Only the one that succeed on doing good ,  
I promise I won't allow anyone in my heart ,  
That promise is true ,  
You have me running and confused ,  
Love is a word I will always be scared of ,  
The truing of your voice that runs in my mind is   
Something I want to let go !  
I hope you understand why I want you to let me go,   
I want you to stop hurting my life ,  
You make my life feel like a failure.

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
