I can't escape you
no matter how many times I turn around
I see you there
looking back at me
your beautiful face
too tempting to resist
your smile
too wonderful to deny
Not a day goes by
that you don't cross my mind
Try as I might to shut you out
I'm powerless against the stray thoughts
that wonder in when my mind is quiet
or my heart is in need of a smile
I need to forget you
I need to find a different path
but you made me so happy
and loved me so openly
that I can never forget what we shared
Even as the years push us apart
and time fades those joyful memories
I feel drawn to you
lost in you
and hopelessly entranced by you
I hope you find your happiness
even in the arms of another
No matter if the vision destroys me slowly
I know you deserve something more
than an absentee lover
waiting to take you home
Just know that around every corner I turn
I will see you looking back
Your face both beautiful and haunting
a welcome image
of a broken heart
I cherish our memories
and wish things could be different
but no matter how much I love you
I can never change what is
what was
or what has to be
So find your peace
and enjoy your life without me
But promise you'll think of me on those still nights
when I'm turning corners in my mind
and staring deep into your loving eyes
but missing your gentle touch
or heartfelt words
Give me thoughts of warmth
to let this shivering soul have some peace
don't let me slip into cold oblivion
and let me remember when you were mine
when life was easier
and nothing more need be said

I must say, you have a great gift. Not only is this poem so wonderfuly worded but it is also one to which i can relate. I wish I could write as well as you.
What a beautiful poem. In completely relate to this, the way you expressed the subtle pain so vividly was breath taking. I loved it , a sheer masterpeice.
man this is so cool……i love it
this is what i am going through right now!! The poem could have been about me!
wow, impressive, i must say…you depict perfectly how a broken heart feels, its like you've experienced everything you write about, not just in this piece but in near all of them, and it makes me wonder if my broken heart will last forever…hopefully not, but oh well, if it does ill just find some happy poem you write…then ill be all good
WOW!!! All i can say is WOW!!! This work is one of my favorites. Love and i have never really gotten along and so i enjoy reading this and feeling how much i relate to it. Thank you so much for this poem. Even though i know that most people don't understand me, i know that you do.
i am sitting in my class as i watched the clock then this poem can into my mind. It reminds me of the pain i have felt all these years u put it in words when all i ever could do 2 describe it was cry and bleed from the wrist thanks
-tears- i love it
This really captured the feelings I have for my ex right now… the pain you feel when they have left you, and the joy you still feel when you see them, all of it laced with wishing them the best. Keep up the great work Raven!
this is another good poem i so love it
Wow… Speachless… Your a great writer! I seriously dont even know how I ended up findind and reading your poems. But just had to tell you that you seriously changed my point of view on things. Keep up the good work.

this poem is so beautiful…i loved it and so did my cousin
I know exactly how this feels. I go through exactly this for the like the past year.The thoughts and memeries just won't end. I love this.
This poem is just awesome, there are many feelings wrote on it, there's just too much that the time cannot erase, but with this poem I could think and say "goodbye" to that person …
Tears and this poem are my favorite. I cant help but read them everyday. I relate to this in so many levels.. to think I read this piece for the first time on a web page my ex had.. you are very talented..
though the poem posseses reasonable appeal and talent you all need to get over your selves. beautiful… i loved it… who cares what you think, your not the one who wrote it. when you have a reasonable literatury background and the same talent for poetry as someone like raven then comment, but only when your worthy
Your poems seem to reflect so much of my life.
I enjoy reading them. You are wonderful. Thank you for sharing your talent.
Again i like the way you just say it the way it is . You have no ryme scheme you follow no set standard in your verses wich gives you amazing places to go with them . if your always condeming your self to what others expect how can you be great and i love that you don't depend on a skelton .
Dear Raven, i doubt that u even read these, but i just wanted to tell u that this poem was so touching. i am in awe. its lovely. the loveliness of young hearts, severed love and begotten pasts in ure poem put me on the verge of tears which would totally suck cause i have on too much makeup, so if i cried , i would look like a crying rainbow. Ah, cheers to glory!!!!! btw, i am truly touched. so is my makeup!!!!! lol. not funny!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
gosh your such a good poem writer i have to write a poem and you have gavin me so many deas i mean i wont copy them but now i have ideas on what to write about thatnks!!!!!=)
