Waves....

~Can you think that your feelings for me
Are Illusions, like mirages in the lonely desert?
Can you believe that you’re trailing away?
And nobody listens, nobody hears~


As the sun sinks in the sea,
Here I watch upon the shore,
A figure silhouetted against the sky,
To stand and wait forevermore.

I scan the waters for a hopeful sign,
But all the effort comes in vain,
The truth I cannot bear to face,
My heart is pierced and full of pain.


Who I thought was once a friend,
Turned his back with pure disgust,
I left him without a single word,
The only person I put my trust.

I begged and cried but he heard naught,
Leaving me alone to death,
For me to face it by myself,
And draw my last and final breath.

Hi Demon,

Good to read from you again. The metric, however, is not levelled out. You need to work on that to get the poem into a correct rhythmic shape.

Some verses have five stressed syllables, others only four.

Good luck and regards
