Leigh Ladd Poems

Hearing your footsteps as you come to the door,
Knowing that it will be just like before.
The key in the lock makes my heart skip a beat,
It makes me so frightened I jump to my feet.
...

You don't have to say it
Not even a word.
All you need to do
Is show me your world.
...

Waiting for you to take my hand,
Talk to me and let me know where I stand.

Am I first in your heart,
...

Today I thought about only you,
Believe me baby for it is true.

Tomorrow will be no different.
...

Two attempts,
And I'm still here.
Is the third time the charm
That will finally do me harm?
...

It's okay, you can be free.
It has to be better than suffering with me.

I gave you my love,
...

What if I loved you,
Gave my heart to you?
Would you love me, too?
...

Your visions of the future,
So beautiful and sweet.
Now I know they were only meant
To sweep me off my feet.
...

Today is unbearable,
I will weep.
Today the grief is severe,
I will ache.
...
