Love Poem: Here Tomorrow

Here Tomorrow

I feel so lost
Empty inside
Like a part of me has died
From family and friends
I pretend
I try to hide
Most of my pain
But it's hard sometimes
When each tear
That falls like rain
Is screaming out loud your name
Wish I could
Just let go
However my feelings for you
Always seem to show
Guess I'm doomed
Destined to live
My life out in gloom
Cooped up here
In this cold and lonely room
Oh I know 
Never assume
Well hell
Things haven't exactly
Gone right
And I can't tell for sure
When or if I'll ever be ready
To give up this fight
Each day and every night
I'm fading fast in the
Shadows of the night
I find my mind taking flight
Then I'm there reality I've lost sight
I'm fantasizing again
Hoping so hard
That I'm wrong
And that you've come back to me
Then my dreams would be answered
My heart would sing a song
Our love would know no end
You would sweep me off my feet
You would be here and you would see
Together is where
We are supposed to be
But then the mornings light
Hits my face
My eyes open
I lose my place
Of where I am
Shortly though I'm reminded
Here I am without your embrace
So much for the leather and lace
I'm running and running
Yet I'm surely losing this damn race
I don't want to face the day
All I want is to run away
I try to keep my mind distracted
But my heart is the one that has over reacted
Your memories I can't escape
They are hard to resist
Can't pretend like they didn't exist
But I knew all this 
Coming in I had my eyes wide open
However there is still hoping
The tides will turn my way
Never know who's to say
I really wish though
That we could again talk
Maybe go down memory lane together
And take a walk
Didn't mean to scare you off
When I told you how I still feel
Even if I know down deep inside my heart
That it is for real
I just wanted you to know
You I never have let go
So sad I know
But I don't want anyones
Sympathy, pity, or sorrow
Espically not yours
What I really long for more than anything right now
Is to have you
Here tomorrow
