SOLO

Summers sweet warm wind drifts over my skin,

 as I stand here waiting for you.

I think of our last moments last night, 

 I smile in a slight winked way.

What ever would I say,

 as I see you coming to join me?

Alas…..I know,

 I’m going to say, “I LOVE YOU”!

Time slips by and you never show

Racing trying to think,

 is it something I said?

A tingle of regret takes over my soul.

Now thinking of the things

 I did and said with you.

I let down my guard

 to impale you whole.

What made you goto never come?

 I will never know.

I can relate to this on a very deep level. Expectation always gets me into a place I've been to, and would rather not revisit.
Nice writing. You take the reader into the situation, and share the same bewildered feelings that are happening to your subject. This is the essence of good poetry, in my opinion.
Excellent work.

Changing loves like changing seasons come and go. I like the poem for its honesty and simplicity as well as the affectionate tone. You wrote it well with a flowing smooth style, not heavy but with deep sincerity and that makes it exceptional. Nice read, enjoyed it!

I let down my guard to impale you whole

Intense imagery....to be impaled by a soul. To love someone soooooo deeply...they can actually climb right through you...touching the core of us. I agree that at certain times we need to stop dreaming in order to take action. I needed that little pep talk. Thank you. :)))

"What made you go to never come I will never know"
The lovely verse applies to all for the crisis and misunderstanding in their lives.
However,the urge of one may be a great means of reconciliation some day.
Very nice poem.

I liked the sense of a glorious encounter ('impale you whole') followed by the morning after doubts and perplexity of vanished hopes...

Awwwww..... so sad. An emotional poem is always the best in my eyes. You did a great job on this one.

Unrequited love..is painful and the thoughts that one is left with ..the wondering what happened or the what if's are the most painful of times.. This is powerful and stings my heart... something I know all to well..x

I hate when a relationship is left unresolved. Cause without closer it is hard to let it go, plus you can' learn from your mistakes if you don't know what they are.
A beautiful write for being so sad.
