Losing My Paradise Poem by Tessa Richardson

Somewhere in my mind
the ghosts of my past haunt me.
Love had left me behind,
and Its power continues to taunt me.

When I fall prey
to Its almighty power,
my very last day
would become my very last hour.

and as he smiled
I gave in.
little did I know
our love was cause for sin.

I always seem to fall
for the guys that never catch me
But I now so swear
to his love he did hatch me.

But one simple 'mistake'
and they tore us apart
the loss of him
broke my now loveless heart

I may just cry forever
I need him to survive
I miss our being together
For his love I now do strive.

I feel so empty without his love
So then i seek some from Above.
But its just not the same
God doesnt seem to care
M'love isn't to blaim!
this event is so unfair!

Never again will I see his lovely face
I know now fully
That none could take his place.

He took me on the ride of my life
I just forgot to hold on
When I landed among strife
I realized I'm not so strong.

He filled me so full
I no longer needed a mask
I'd have given him my soul
had he only asked.

But I gave him my sky
Before I had found my ground
and now it has all
come crashing down

By one stupid mistake
we can no longer share our love
now my smiles are only fake
I wish only to go Above.

I'm tired of counting the good things
when they are so few
I now know how SHOULD things go
If he and I weren't through.

With our love, a new life we did begin
But really its our end to be
The fire started from within
and destroyed everything I had in me.

Everything our love had built
has left us broken now that its gone
Now im dying and ridden with guilt
I know now fully, Im not- that- strong! ! !
